Recently, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House worked to pass legislation that would help assure patients' access to their community pharmacies, of which I am one.

While the House moved quickly to pass this Medicare bill, the Senate stalled due to political angling. I write today in the hopes that the U.S. senators in our state will remember to support their constituents and their local pharmacies when they return to Washington. Not only is the health of our citizens at stake, but the health of our local economies, as well.

Vote in favor of H.R. 6331, senator.

James Cleland
