The promised policy was enacted in the Inflation Reduction Act, Public Law 117-169, which capped Medicare Part D annual out-of-pocket prescription drug costs at $2,000 beginning in 2025. Sean Casten was a sitting U.S. Representative and voted yea on H.R. 5376, giving him direct legislative credit for materially advancing the enacted bill. Because the substantive cap takes effect in 2025 after enactment, timing is best treated as later_term.
