2023 Legislative Update Week 4 (Days 9-12)

Seems like everyone is anxiously waiting for the dam to burst under the Gold Dome. We expected things to pick up significantly in Week 4 with longer floor sessions, more committee hearings, and hundreds of newly dropped bills to read through but it was another unusually slow week at the Capitol. GPhA was busy with meetings, drafting legislation and discussing issues with stakeholders. We met with legislators to voice our concerns regarding bills that are not favorable to the pharmacy profession as well. We are anticipating some movement with our agenda in Week 5. Stay tuned for next week’s update for bills we will be following during this legislative session.
