State Attorneys General Tom Miller (Iowa) and Lawrence Wasden (Idaho) sent the following letter ahead of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee mark-up of the Financial Services and General Government bill.
Re: Contact Lens Rule
Dear Chairman Capito and Ranking Member Coons:
In advance of your Appropriations Subcommittee mark-up of the Financial Services and General Government bill, we would like to highlight one issue that provides a meaningful benefit to consumers: The right to receive ones prescription from a contact lens prescriber. Accordingly, we have attached the comment from a bipartisan group of twenty state Attorneys General on the Federal Trade Commission’s recent proposed update to the Contact Lens Rule.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Tom Miller
Attorney General
State of Iowa
Lawrence Wasden
Attorney General
State of Idaho
