Check out Health Policy Manager Zack Friend's article: "The Pharma Section 232 Proclamation is Here. What It Means and Who Gets a Pass." The Trump Administration moved quickly after announcing its Section 232 pharmaceutical tariffs on April 2, 2026. After a year-long investigation into whether U.S. reliance on imported drugs poses a national security threat, the Commerce Department concluded that it does, and the President acted. "Engaging now, before the guidance drops and before the July implementation deadline, is the only way to protect against outcomes that could have been avoided."

Check out Policy Analyst Andrew LoCicero's article entitled, "Golden Dome: Policy Analysis." Since President Trump introduced the Golden Dome concept, there have been questions about how it would work, the cost, and its feasibility. Andrew's article explores this, as he dives into the Golden Dome's intended objective, function, cost, and practicality. With this, he tears back the layers of what other systems could be involved and the President's goals for the Golden Dome's capabilities. "The Golden Dome is a highly advanced and aspirational concept to defend the U.S. from a variety of adversary missile attacks. While systems exist to protect the country and smaller regional zones, the size and scope of the Golden Dome would be far above current capacity."

Check out Manager of Government Affairs Lauren Doepke's article entitled, "What's In Your Water? The 2026 Federal Drinking Water Outlook Is Fluid." Between the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) and PFAS battles being fought in DC Circuit Court, 2026 is shaping up to be a big year for water. Catch updates and an end-of-year outlook in Lauren's article. “Drinking water policy in 2026 is a study in simultaneous action and retreat... The real policy leverage this year lies at the intersection of WRDA negotiations, UCMR finalization, and the D.C. Circuit’s handling of PFAS litigation. Organizations that engage proactively with Congress, the EPA’s comment processes, and state-level regulators filling federal gaps will be far better positioned than those waiting for a unified federal signal that may not come.” https://lnkd.in/ezrX7he5 #DrinkingWater #WRDA #PFAS #2026FederalOutlook
