> Good evening. The Ohio House Insurance Committee held the first, sponsor
> testimony, hearing for our Accessible Prescription Labeling legislation,
> H.B. 448, back on February 16, 2022. Representative Richard Brown, who is
> sponsoring the legislation for us, did a fantastic job at the hearing
> explaining the need for H.B. 448. Unfortunately, despite two meetings since
> then, the Committee has not yet scheduled H.B. 448 for its second,
> proponent testimony, hearing.  So it is once again time to put pressure on
> the Chairman's office to move this legislation forward so that we can get
> it passed this year.
> 
> The Chairman of the House Insurance Committee is the Honorable Thomas E.
> Brinkman, Jr. from District 27.  Representative Brinkman's email is
> rep27 at ohiohouse.gov
> 
> This is an urgent matter. We want to call upon Representative Brinkman to
> schedule H.B. 448's proponent testimony hearing as soon as possible and to
> keep the legislation moving after the proponent testimony hearing. I am
> asking that we fill Representative Brinkman's email with as many individual
> messages as possible on H.B. 448 by Tuesday afternoon at 5:00 P.M.  The
> emails should specifically ask Chairman Brinkman to schedule H.B. 448 for
> its second hearing. Remember to also impress upon Representative Brinkman
> why H.B. 448 is so important to us.
> 
> Fellow Federationists, we accomplished this once when our voices rang out
> loud and clear and the House Insurance Committee scheduled the first
> hearing. Let's make those voices heard loud and clear once again and keep
> H.B. 448 moving.
> 
> Please let me or Eric Duffy know if you have any questions regarding this
> issue.
