Fighting to Protect Your Practice, Your Profession, Your Patients, and YOU!
What Is PharmPAC?
PharmPAC is the political action committee of the Texas Pharmacy Association—with the single focus of supporting TPA’s advocacy
efforts on behalf of Texas pharmacy professionals and the patients they serve. PharmPAC supports elected officials and candidates for office who are pharmacy-friendly and support the pharmacy profession.
The continued advancement of pharmacy depends greatly on the political clout of our profession and of TPA.
It takes a well-funded PAC to support the campaigns of pharmacy-friendly candidates and to help build the credibility of your profession as an effective and influential group.
PharmPAC's Goals Include:
- Support pro-pharmacy, pro-patient officeholders and candidates for public office in Texas.
- Encourage Texas pharmacy professionals to become more active in state government affairs and the electoral process.
- Educate Texas pharmacy professionals and others about the political/legislative process and help them understand how government actions affect their practice.
Does My Voice Really Matter?
YES, especially when combined with other pharmacy advocates’ voices! We are up against big money, Fortune 15 PBMs and health plans, big business, and the corporate practice of medicine. Our policy position is better every
time, but we often lose because we are underfunded.

You can help us address critical business issues and advance the practice. The stronger our PAC is, the louder your voice will be. We need every single pharmacist to participate!
Government policy has a major impact on many areas of pharmacy and your career::
- Your scope of practice—the ability to offer new and better services to your patients
- Reimbursement for medications
- Payment for services you provide
- Relationships with your patients
- Licensing and record-keeping requirements
- Insurance policies, including payers and middlemen
...and more!
The stronger our PAC is, the louder your voice will be!
Why Support PharmPAC?
It is critical to have pharmacy-friendly elected officials in state government. Pledge to invest in the future of your profession and help elect individuals who support pharmacy.

“If every pharmacist were to contribute a modest amount to our PAC, we would
accumulate a substantial fund to support the establishment and maintenance of relationships with state legislators who make decisions regarding our scope of practice, reimbursements, and licenses. Contributing just one hour’s worth
of salary per month makes a significant difference.”
–Chris Alvarado, Pharm.D. H-E-B Pharmacy • San Antonio, TX
