NACDS Shifts 2015 NACDS RxIMPACT Day on Capitol Hill to Match Just-Released Congressional Schedule

The National Association of Chain Drug Stores has successfully changed the dates and location of its popular and effective NACDS RxIMPACT Day on Capitol Hill, moving the event to March 25 and 26, 2015, at the Marriott Marquis Washington, DC.

Arlington, Va. - The National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) has successfully changed the dates and location of its popular and effective NACDS RxIMPACT Day on Capitol Hill, moving the event to March 25 and 26, 2015, at the Marriott Marquis Washington, DC.

The date change was made necessary by a shift from the usual House of Representatives schedule, by which the chamber would not have been in session on the originally scheduled dates. The location change was made necessary by hotel availability.

Updated hotel information will be available soon on the NACDS RxIMPACT Day on Capitol Hill web page.
