ThanQ foldy!!!
I just returned from a meeting of the East Alabama Republican Assembly. The guest speaker, who is the owner of a local, independent pharmacy, explained the FAIR Meds Act (HB238). This battle has been taken TO to our state legislature by local Alabama folks.
One point from my notes of that meeting: “it doesn’t matter what prescription your doctor writes; what matters is what your insurance will cover...”
If anyone is interested, this is a link to numerous articles about our fight in Alabama:

Not 100% true with just those words - if I have the money then I should get whatever script the doc writes.
Though I think he’s saying too many people don’t have the insurance coverage for the meds in question and so can’t afford it.
Some people are saying that pharmacies won’t fill scripts even if thay have the money.
