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.
