Accelerating Medical Treatments for Serious Mental Illness

EO 14153Donald TrumpSigned April 18, 2026

Full Official Summary

Families dealing with severe mental health conditions like schizophrenia or deep depression will soon see new treatments move from the lab to the pharmacy much faster. By cutting through the slow-moving government paperwork that usually delays new drugs for years, the government is forcing medical reviewers to prioritize and speed up the testing of breakthrough therapies. This change means if you or a loved one are struggling with a mental illness that current medicines can’t fix, you won’t have to wait nearly as long for a new, potentially life-saving option to become available. You should care about this because it removes the "red tape" (unnecessary rules and delays) that often stands between a suffering patient and a scientific cure.
