Trump signs bills banning drug pricing 'gag clauses'

President Trump on Wednesday signed two bills banning "gag clauses" that keep patients in the dark about how to save money on prescription drugs.

The clauses are sometimes included in the contracts insurers have with pharmacies — preventing pharmacies from telling customers they can save money on a drug if they pay with cash instead of using their health insurance.

"This is very strong legislation to end these unjust gag clauses once and for all," Trump said during a signing ceremony at the White House.
