The Inflation Reduction Act is Bringing Savings to Real People
Through the Inflation Reduction Act – the most consequential health care law since the Affordable Care Act – President Biden is delivering on his promise to lower prescription drug costs, make health insurance more affordable, and make the economy work for working families. The Biden-Harris Administration believes that everyone deserves the right to high-quality, affordable health care. Thanks to the President’s new lower cost prescription drug law, millions of Americans are already seeing lower health care costs as they access the care they need. Visit LowerDrugCosts.gov to learn more.
