Two asks to help us secure PBM reform

NCPA December 2, 2024

Since June, we’ve sent over 57,000 letters to the Hill with our Finish the Fight initiative. Every single senator as well as all but five representatives have heard from your patients on how important PBM reform is. As we head into the last few weeks of the session it’s time to remind them to get the job done.  

We’re calling it 10 to Win. Just imagine if every pharmacy across the country had 10 of their patients to send letters to their representatives in Congress before the end of the year. Members’ inboxes would be overflowing with messages in support of pro-patient, pro-pharmacy PBM reform. Want to make that a reality? Here’s how: It’s a simple process: 

  1. Visit www.ncpa.org/finishthefight 

  1. Scroll to campaign resources 

  1. Select a poster to print and display in your pharmacy 

  1. Ask your patients to scan the QR code and enter their name and address 

  1. Have them click the submit letters link to complete their action 

Secondly, we also need you to contact your legislators. There is a bipartisan letter being circulated around the House of Representatives from members to congressional leadership asking them to push robust PBM reform across the finish line before the end of the year. So far we’ve got seventy members of Congress to sign on, but we want as many as possible! 

If you don’t see your representative’s name here, we need your help getting them on board: Aderholt, Robert; Allen, Rick; Auchincloss, Jake; Barragán, Nanette; Bean, Aaron; Bentz, Cliff; Bishop, Sanford; Brownley, Julia; Bucshon, Larry; Budzinski, Nikki; Burchett, Tim; Carl, Jerry; Carter, Earl; Chavez-DeRemer, Lori; Cherfilus-McCormick, Sheila; Clarke, Yvette; Cleaver, Emanuel; Comer, James; Davids, Sharice; Davis, Donald; Dean, Madeleine; DeSaulnier, Mark; Dingell, Debbie; Duncan, Jeff; Dunn, Neal; Fleischmann, Charles; Flood, Mike; Fry, Russell; Fulcher, Russ; Gallego, Ruben; Goldman, Daniel; Gonzalez, Vicente; Graves, Garret; Grothman, Glenn; Harshbarger, Diana; Higgins, Clay; Houchin, Erin; Johnson, Henry; Kean, Thomas; Kennedy, Timothy; Krishnamoorthi, Raja; LaLota, Nick; Landsman, Greg; Langworthy, Nicholas; Letlow, Julia; Malliotakis, Nicole; Maloy, Celeste; McCormick, Richard; Mrvan, Frank; Murphy, Gregory; Owens, Burgess; Peters, Scott; Rose, John; Ross, Deborah; Rutherford, John; Salinas, Andrea; Schneider, Bradley; Scott, Austin; Sherrill, Mikie; Smith, Christopher; Spanberger, Abigail; Sykes, Emilia; Tenney, Claudia; Thanedar, Shri; Van Drew, Jefferson; Vasquez, Gabe; Veasey, Marc; Watson Coleman, Bonnie; Weber, Randy; Williams, Nikema; and Wittman, Robert.
