On April 16, Arkansas Governor (and former Trump administration White House press secretary) Sarah Huckabee Sanders signed into law a bill that prohibits PBMs from owning or operating pharmacies. The new law goes into effect at the beginning of next year.

“For far too long, drug middlemen called PBMs have taken advantage of lax regulations to abuse customers, inflate drug prices, and cut off access to critical medications. Not anymore.” – Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders
