"The Trump Administration is ostentatiously flouting Congress’s power of the purse, which is one of the most basic principles of our republic"

Apropos of today's MI Supreme Court oral argument in Mothering Justice v Attorney General re "adopt-and-amend." It's hard to believe it's been 5+ years since I was working on this matter alongside @sbagen when it was before the Court as a request for an advisory opinion. #MILeg

Two years ago, @POTUS signed the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, a once-in-a-generation investment in American infrastructure.
Since then, the Administration has announced over 40,000 projects and awards across 4,500 communities.
This is what Investing in America looks like.

In August I announced Medicare had selected ten drugs for price negotiation.
Well, last Friday a court blocked Big Pharma and their allies when they tried to stop us.
Now, those manufacturers are coming to the table, where Medicare will work to lower prices for seniors.

It’s simple common sense that Medicare should be able to negotiate lower drug costs.
Today’s ruling allows Medicare to move forward with implementing this program, and serves to confirm that nothing in the Constitution prevents Medicare from negotiating for lower drug prices.
