State Rep. Phil Montgomery, R-Ashwaubenon, has been named Pharmacy Society of Wisconsin 2007 Legislator of the year.
Montgomery has been a vocal advocate for Wisconsin pharmacy on issues such as the state budget and licensing of out-of-state pharmacists, according to the group.
He was instrumental in stopping legislation that would have placed serious restrictions on the ability of pharmacies to purchase prescription drugs from licensed wholesalers. And he is working to develop legislation that would allow for remote dispensing of prescription drugs, according to the group.
Montgomery will be honored at a reception on Wednesday at the Inn on the Park in Madison. The award is presented each year in conjunction with the annual Pharmacy Society of Wisconsin Legislative Day.
