I rise today to honor the Georgia Pharmacy Association and recognize its 150th anniversary this year. Founded in 1875 in Macon by a group of Georgia pharmacists, the Georgia Pharmacy Association has acted as a platform to promote pharmacy both as a profession and a vital component of healthcare. The organization's reach has expanded into our four pharmacy schools in Georgia, fostering involvement from the next generation of healthcare professionals. The Georgia Pharmacy Association has achieved several legislative wins, both at the State and Federal levels, including a recent State reimbursement bill supporting independent pharmacies in their battle against PBMs. I congratulate the Georgia Pharmacy Association on their achievements for pharmacy throughout the past 150 years, and I wish them all the best at the upcoming State convention in Amelia Island this weekend.
