The president didn’t provide details on what would be included in the healthcare plan, but he said major healthcare and immigration initiatives would be put in place in coming weeks. 

“We’re signing a healthcare plan within two weeks, a full and complete healthcare plan,” President Trump said. “We’re going to sign an immigration plan, a healthcare plan, and various other plans. Nobody will have done what I’m doing in the next four weeks.” 

The president said he believes the Supreme Court ruling in June that rejected his administration’s efforts to dismantle the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program gave him new powers. 

“The decision by the Supreme Court on DACA allows me to do things on immigration, on health care, on other things that we’ve never done before,” President Trump said. “You’re going to find it to be a very exciting two weeks.”
