[Tall-Corn] Follow Up: Urgent Action Regarding Accessible Prescription Label Bill

Wed Feb 11 01:04:25 UTC 2026

Good evening NFBI,

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our day at the capitol today. I believe it was the most successful of the 3 I’ve attended. We spoke with quite a few legislators and had some constructive interactions.

For our prescription label bill, in our conversations today we confirmed that the most impactful thing for us to do outside of the meetings we had is to contact the members of the committee below and express our support for the bill. The more people we can get to reach out within the next couple days, the more likely it is that our bill will receive a committee meeting and move forward prior to the February 20 funnel deadline. We were told that email is the best method for communicating our support, with phone calls being second-best.
Everyone who is able, including your friends and family, please email the members of the committee below. Feel free to use the email template provided if you want. If you don’t have time to email the entire committee, please prioritize the republicans.

Thank you all for your quick action on this. Please reach out with questions.

Helen

Dear Representative ____
My name is ____ and I’m a member of the National Federation of the Blind of Iowa. I’m asking that the commerce committee hold a hearing on HF 2033 prior to the first funnel deadline and pass it out of committee. This bill is important for making sure that all Iowans have the ability to safely manage their own medications and avoid needing unnecessary, and potentially costly, assistance. Please help move this important bill forward this year.
Thank you very much,
