The National Association of Chain Drug Stores is hosting a virtual RxIMPACT Votes event on Tuesday, Sept. 20 from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. EST.

The event, hosted by NACDS president and CEO Steve Anderson, will feature national political analyst Charlie Cook who will discuss the 2022 elections and what they portend for the future of pharmacy.

The event follows numerous NACDS RxIMPACT in-person grassroots activities. NACDS members already have hosted more than 80 Congressional pharmacy tours in 2022. 

“NACDS members have a presence in every state and Congressional District, and NACDS RxIMPACT Votes is here to encourage the people of pharmacy to engage with and vote for the candidates of their choice,” said Anderson. 

In a recent newsletter, Anderson noted that the upcoming event with Cook is about much more than political knowledge. "It is about political and policy engagement, and it is about community," he said.

Anderson continued, "NACDS RxIMPACT Votes – the get-out-the-vote arm of NACDS’ grassroots program – has a huge mission this year. Not only is the program charged with the task of making this the year of the pharmacy voter, but it also is charged with helping to enroll new pharmacy advocates. To this point, the pandemic stifled many in-person political events. NACDS has looked to virtual options to keep the momentum of pharmacy grassroots engagement headed in the right direction."

Anderson noted that NACDS’ virtual strategies have boosted the ranks of NACDS RxIMPACT advocates by 33% in 2022 alone. "It is engagement like this that made it possible for NACDS RxIMPACT advocates to account for one-quarter of the comments submitted on the DIR fee transparency rule earlier this year," he said.

Anderson also shared that approximately 50 event partners have stepped up to help get out the word about this NACDS event with Charlie Cook. 

Lastly, Anderson said, "Join us for this Sept. 20 event with a huge purpose: spreading political knowledge; urging electoral involvement; boosting the roles of pharmacy advocates; and demonstrating the strong engagement of the NACDS membership."
