    .: The For the People agenda and H.R. 1 is really our vision as of what our Democracy should be. It's returning our democracy back to the people. Automatic voter registration should be a no-brainer.

    When working to reduce drug prices, it’s very important to me that Congress seeks input from those who interact daily with patients, including pharmacists from Aliceville and Selma!

    At health subcommittee, discussed how she seeks out the input of rural pharmacists in her district. Thank you, Rep. Sewell, for valuing their input as providers as they help patients access and adhere to their medications.
