The OPA Pharmacy Political Action Committee (PAC) is your means of informing and educating state legislators about the significance of pharmacists in Ohio and the role the profession plays in constantly changing health care environment. Learn more on how you can help support pro-pharmacy legislators through the Pharmacy PAC here.
The OPA Legislative Defense Fund (LDF) was created in 2014 at the request of an independent pharmacy owner seeking to help OPA boost its advocacy efforts for pharmacists.
Unlike a Political Action Committee (PAC) fund, where personal funds are given directly to political campaigns, both personal and corporate funds are accepted by the LDF to enhance our government affairs endeavors, and there are no limits on the amount you can give. Contributions from corporate funds may be tax deductible as a business expense. For more info please see the OPA Legislative Defense Fund Brochure.
How to support the OPA Legislative Defense Fund:
Complete the OPA Legislative Defense Fund Donation Form to sign up to make a monthly contribution to our advocacy efforts. Choose the giving level that best suits you, and then fill in your billing information. OPA will bill your account in the middle of each month, and you will receive a receipt at the end of the year for reporting. Then it’s our job to put that money to good use.
