We know that much more needs to be done and we look forward to our continued work with you to respond to this crisis together. As COVID-19 continues to impact both urban and rural communities, we are gravely concerned about the compromised digital access that now threatens entire communities, and people’s livelihoods, educational access, quality of healthcare and lives. Our rural communities are particularly less prepared to mitigate the pandemic itself and adapt to what will certainly be a different world in a post-COVID economy, in large part because of the lack of access to broadband. Some 18 million Americans lack access to broadband internet connectivity, 14 million of whom reside in rural America. In today’s economy these communities, businesses and families without adequate access are left behind, and the consequences are staggering from an economic, health, education, and social standpoint. Broadband is not a luxury, but rather critical infrastructure that’s vitally important to our economic future and national security.

  • Secretary Alex Azar
    April 13, 2020 The Honorable Alex Azar The Honorable Seema Verma Secretary Administrator U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services 200 Independence Ave. SW 7500 Security Blvd. Washington, DC 20201 Baltimore, MD 21244 Dear Secretary Azar and Administrator Verma: In the face of the worst public health crisis in modern history, we as governors are taking unprecedented steps to protect the people of our states from the coronavirus pandemic and the economic devastation occurring in its wake. Many of our states have taken the step of waiving co-payments for coronavirus- related testing and treatment through our Medicaid programs and have encouraged our private insurers to do the same. We all know that more needs to be done to increase access to affordable health care during this crisis, however. To that end, we would ask that you reconsider your decision and immediately open a special enrollment period of at least 30 days on the federal health care exchange. A special enrollment period would ensure individuals in the 38 states on the federal exchange, in addition to those who already qualify, can purchase the coverage they need during this challenging time. Too many of our constituents are uninsured or underinsured despite the steps we’ve taken at the state level. As a result, far too many of our residents are choosing to forgo coronavirus testing and treatment out of fear of the potential costs to themselves and their families at a time of increasing economic distress. Not only is this unacceptable, it’s also dangerous as it undermines our ability as a nation to stop the spread of COVID- 19.

  • Education Law Alert February 2019 Ron Desantis Calls to Impanel
    Education Law Alert February 2019 Ron DeSantis Calls to Impanel Grand Jury on School Safety On the eve of the anniversary of the Parkland shooting Governor DeSantis announced that he petitioned the Florida Supreme Court to impanel a statewide grand jury to investigate school districts throughout the state regarding their school safety practices. DeSantis says he made the decision in order to go beyond the scope granted to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission, which was tasked primarily with analyzing the causes of the shooting at that school last year. The Governor stated that in addition to the statewide scope of the grand jury, the panel’s subpoena power will have more teeth compared to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Commission’s subpoena power.

Ron DeSantis challenged law makers to send him a bill that provides for the creation of taxpayer-funded scholarship for more children to attend private schools. Following the statement, the Governor and his team released their own versions of the bills they hope to see on scholarships, teacher performance pay, graduation requirements, and more. State Rep. Chris Latvala, chairman of House PreK-12 Appropriations and vice chair of House Education, acknowledged the Governor’s prerogative to put forward a budget and conforming bills that would establish new ideas. However, he stated that the Legislature might approve, rewrite, or outright kill the ideas, depending on the will of the majority. Read more here.

  • 20-0268 TITLE Resolution of the City Council of The
    July 14, 2020 File ID: 20-0268 TITLE Resolution of the City Council of the City of Chula Vista Approving a $1.5 Million Small Business Grant Program (Chula Vista CARES) to Reimburse the Costs of Business Interruption Caused by Required Closures due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. RECOMMENDED ACTION Council adopt the resolution. SUMMARY On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, more commonly known as the CARES Act, which authorizes $2.1 trillion in federal relief. Included in the CARES Act is the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF) that provided $150 billion to states and those local municipalities with populations greater than 500,000 based on a specific formula. Regionally, the County of San Diego received $334 million and the City of San Diego approximately $249 million. Cities and Counties with populations fewer than 500,000, including the City of Chula Vista, did not directly receive CARES Act CRF funding from the federal government. On May 19, 2020 the County Board of Supervisors approved allocation of $25 million in CARES Act CRF monies to 17 cities in San Diego County, not including the City of San Diego. The allocation of this $25 million was determined based on a population formula. Based on the City’s population, the City of Chula Vista received $4,842,695 in CARES Act CRF funds through the County of San Diego. On June 23, 2020, the City Council appropriated $4,842,695 in CARES Act CRF monies to the General Fund. As part of this action, the City Council approved $1.5 million to Economic Development Recovery Grants for Small Businesses to provide economic relief and assist at-risk businesses in rebounding from the economic impacts of COVID-19.

IN THIS ISSUE What Pharmacy Needs from the Next Administration Presidential candidates regularly trade barbs on access to care, drug pricing, health insurance, and similar issues. But exactly how the 2 candidates, President Donald Trump and Joe Biden, might address health care issues is murky. [Read Article] How To Fix The Supply Chain Flaws Exposed By COVID-19 The sudden emergence and rapid spread of COVID-19 caught the nations of the world off guard. A global pandemic of this scale is unlike anything experienced in modern times. [Read Article] The Time for Pharmacists to be “Essential” in Primary Care There are multiple factors coming together that support pharmacists becoming “essential” in primary care.

[Read Article] Technology And Policy Are Empowering Pharmacists According to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), the U.S. is staring down the barrel of a primary care physician (PCP) shortage to the tune of 21,000 to 55,000 primary care providers (PCPs) by 2023.
