The Fallon Rotary Club moved their annual pancake breakfast this year to the Churchill County Library where the Boy Scout Troop 1776 was able to help volunteer to put on the event. The Farm Bureau BBQ was held at the home of Norm and Sue Frey -- Rambling River Ranch and attended by Assemblywoman Robin Titus, Senator James Settelmeyer, former Lyon County Sheriff, Allen Veil, candidate for Governor, John Lee, and candidate for U.S. Senate Sam Brown with this family.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
