Along with several others from around the country, she gave a moving statement in support of independent pharmacy and spoke of the devastating effects of PBM practices. This bipartisan legislation would start meaningful reform on the federal level. Anna was joined by fellow Alabama pharmacists Frank Tant, Dale Johnson, and Bobby Giles.
