The Trump administration has been using threats of impoundment via executive orders to exercise power over healthcare, education, transportation, and more. It seems like the most likely route the administration would take to do anything related to the recently-created "Make America Healthy Again commission."
The commission will, among other things, "assess the prevalence of and threat posed by the prescription of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants, and weight-loss drugs." Will the administration threaten to impound (or actually impound) federal funds due to the prescription (or to reduce the "overprescription") of any of these drugs?

3.00Considering how much people with untreated mental illnesses have become bogeymen in the public discourse with regards to public safety, I don’t anticipate reducing treatment to be a likely move.
Has there actually been a threats of impounding federal grants over healthcare? I haven't heard.
I'm betting yes cause this would be awful for me and at least I could win some mana before I get hauled off to the wellness farms
