President Donald Trump met with pharmaceutical CEOs Tuesday in the White House. The president urged the drug makers to get prices down on life-saving drugs.

CNBC reported:

“We have to get the prices way down,” Trump said. “We have to get lower prices, we have to get even better innovation, and I want you to move your companies back to the United States. I want you to manufacture in the United States.” “You have to get your companies back here, we have to make products back” here, Trump said.

The CEOs of Merck, Amgen, Eli Lilly, Novartis and Johnson & Johnson, as well as the head of the trade group PhRMA participated in the discussions.
