Call to action

Last week, Rep. Stephanie Klick filed full practice authority bill, H.B. 1792, which would removefull practice authority bill, H.B. 1792costly, antiquated regulatory barriers to nurse practitioners and help expand access to care for Texans. Since the bill was introduced, members of the Texas Medical Association and other physician groups have been inundating legislative offices with calls, personalized emails, and in-person visits. On our Grassroots Action Center, we’ve provided guidelines on how to write letters to your legislators (see also “Key Messages" here). A personal appeal is 100 times more effective and persuasive than a template form letter. Please share our call to action with the members of your Affiliate, and encourage them to participate in our full practice letter writing campaign. Please direct any questions to erin@texasnp.org.

Thank you!
