  • Of 2 January 15, 2021 the Honorable Tony Evers Governor of Wisconsin
    January 15, 2021 The Honorable Tony Evers Governor of Wisconsin State Capitol, Room 115 East Dear Governor Evers, As you know, CVS and Walgreens are partnering with the CDC to distribute COVID-19 vaccines to residents of nursing homes in Wisconsin. As the vaccine becomes more widely available to the public, we request that you explore all options for including vaccine distribution through locally owned and operated pharmacies. The timely distribution of these vaccines will require an all hands on deck approach. While emergency authorization of these vaccines by the FDA includes restrictions on distribution, waivers are frequently sought when they are necessary and prudent. Any exclusion of locally owned pharmacies will hurt small business, which will cause significant long term harm to Wisconsin’s economic recovery and long term health. Even more critically, excluding small pharmacies from this critical work will hamper vaccine distribution across our state. Many people, particularly in rural and urban communities, may be more likely to get the vaccine if it can be administered by a familiar face at a local pharmacy instead of through a big box store. We urge you to do all you can to ensure locally owned pharmacies are included in our state’s fight against this disease. Sincerely, Rep. Dave Murphy Rep. Janel Brandtjen Rep. Rachael Cabral-Guevara 56th Assembly District 22nd Assembly District 55th Assembly District Rep. Calvin Callahan Rep. Barbara Dittrich Rep. James Edming 35th Assembly District 38th Assembly District 87th Assembly District Page 1 of 2 Rep. Rick Gundrum Rep. Joel Kitchens Rep.

Many of these bills originated as recommendations from WMC members who serve on our various policy committees and were developed by our in-house team of attorneys and policy experts. is report outlines the results of our lobbying effort on the most signiMcant business legislation of the session.
