President Donald Trump will sign an executive order Monday to streamline regulations surrounding pharmaceutical manufacturing in the United States, according to two White House officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe plans that have not been made public.

The order to incentivize domestic drug manufacturing comes ahead of possible tariffs on pharmaceuticals — a policy that's on hold, for now, pending an investigation by the Commerce Department to determine whether importing pharmaceuticals is a threat to national security. That Section 232 investigation could be completed this summer, one of the officials said Monday.

But regardless of whether the Trump administration puts tariffs on prescription drugs, Monday's executive order seeks to incentivize more domestic manufacturing of medications.
