U.S. President Donald Trump outlined a series of key policy moves, announcing expanded access to in vitro fertilization (IVF), a potential block on Venezuelan oil exports, a 25% auto tariff, and a restriction on Elon Musk’s involvement in space-related government decisions.
Speaking from Palm Beach, Trump signed an executive order aimed at making fertility treatments more affordable. White House Staff Secretary Will Scharf joined him to explain that the directive instructs the Domestic Policy Council to explore ways to reduce costs for IVF and other fertility services.
Trump also hinted at a stricter stance on Venezuela’s oil exports, saying his administration is “looking at” banning petroleum sales through companies like Chevron.
On trade, the president reaffirmed plans for a 25% tariff on imported vehicles, stating that final details will be announced on April 2. He suggested that major car and semiconductor companies are already considering new U.S. investments in response.
Additionally, Trump ruled out any involvement by billionaire Elon Musk in space-related government projects, citing potential conflicts of interest.
