Trump signs order to study how to expand IVF and calls for 'radical transparency' from government
President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order to study how to expand access to in vitro fertilization and make it more affordable.
The order calls for policy recommendations to 바카라 게임 웹사이트protect IVF access and aggressively reduce out-of-pocket and health plan costs for such treatments,바카라 게임 웹사이트 according to the White House. On the campaign trail, Trump called for universal coverage of IVF treatment after his Supreme Court nominees helped to overturn Roe v. Wade, leading to a wave of restrictions in Republican-led states, including some that have threatened access to IVF by trying to define life as beginning at conception.
Trump, who was at his Florida residence and club Mar-a-Lago, also signed another executive order as well as a presidential memorandum. The second executive order outlined the oversight functions of the Office of Management and Budget, while the presidential memorandum called for more transparency from the government, according to White House staff secretary Will Scharf, whom Trump called to the podium to detail the orders.
The order called for 바카라 게임 웹사이트radical transparency requirements바카라 게임 웹사이트 for the government, requiring it to detail the 바카라 게임 웹사이트waste, fraud and abuse바카라 게임 웹사이트 that's found as the Department of Government Efficiency, overseen by Elon Musk, looks to cut government spending.
DOGE has often fallen short of the administration's promises of transparency. Musk has taken questions from journalists only once since becoming Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트s most powerful adviser, and he바카라 게임 웹사이트s claimed it바카라 게임 웹사이트s illegal to name people who are working for him. Sometimes DOGE staff members have demanded access to sensitive government databases with little explanation.
According to a fact sheet provided by the White House, Trump's IVF order will focus on prioritizing whether there are any current policies 바카라 게임 웹사이트that exacerbate the cost of IVF treatments.바카라 게임 웹사이트
Last year, Trump declared public support for IVF after the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos can be considered children under state law. The decision, which some Republicans and conservatives cheered, touched off immediate backlash.
On the campaign trail, IVF quickly became a talking point for Trump, who said he strongly supports its availability.
In vitro fertilization offers a possible solution when a woman has trouble getting pregnant. The procedure involves retrieving her eggs and combining them in a lab dish with a man바카라 게임 웹사이트s sperm to create a fertilized embryo, which is then transferred into the woman바카라 게임 웹사이트s uterus in an attempt to create a pregnancy. IVF is done in cycles, and more than one may be required.
바카라 게임 웹사이트I think the women and families, husbands, are very appreciative of it,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Trump said in brief remarks on the order, before he took questions on a variety of topics.
Trump, who spent the morning at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, spoke to reporters hours before his first joint TV interview with adviser Elon Musk airs in prime time.
Trump and Musk gave their first joint interview to Sean Hannity of Fox 온라인 바카라 게임 Channel. The interview was taped on Friday at the White House and is set to air as Musk leads Trump's effort to cut federal spending and slash the federal workforce.
Musk has drawn criticism from Democrats in Congress and others for the methods he and his team at DOGE are using to cut spending, including foreign aid, and eliminate jobs across the bureaucracy.
The Fox 온라인 바카라 게임 interview also follows Musk's appearance with Trump in the Oval Office last week, when both defended Musk's approach to federal cost-cutting.
In an excerpt from the interview that Fox 온라인 바카라 게임 released on Sunday, Musk said he 바카라 게임 웹사이트used to be adored by the left바카라 게임 웹사이트 but 바카라 게임 웹사이트less so these days바카라 게임 웹사이트 because of the work he's doing at Trump's direction.
바카라 게임 웹사이트They call it Trump derangement syndrome. You don't realize how real this is until you can't reason with people,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Musk said, adding that normal conversations with Democrats about the president are difficult because 바카라 게임 웹사이트it's like they've become completely irrational.바카라 게임 웹사이트
Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club is the setting Tuesday night for an awards program by America's Future, a conservative group led by , who briefly served as national security adviser in the Republican president바카라 게임 웹사이트s first term. The program aims to preserve individual rights and promote American values and traditions, according to its website. The event, celebrating American exceptionalism, will honor one member from the Army, the Navy, the Marines, the Air Force and the Space Force.
The event includes a poolside reception, musical performances and dinner in Mar-a-Lago's Grand Ballroom, where other award presentations are expected from a lineup that includes such names as Russell Brand, Ted Nugent and Mike Tyson.
