TX NP Autonomy Bill

Published

There are 2 bills in the Texas House and Senate that offer independent practice rights to NPs. It only takes a few minutes to sign a petition and email your legislators. If you recruit your spouse, friends, or adult children, you can double or triple the response. There are about 2000 signatures and 1200 emails generated already. Legislators are taking notice. Now is the time if you would like autonomy.

Way to go, Steph! If you have time, there is also a free bus trip to Austin on April 8th from Ft. Worth to visit legislators. Please tell any friends or colleagues that might be interested and about the petition and email.

Can we sign if we don't live in TX but would if NPs become independent?

Zenman,

I don't know if you could sign the petition or not. However, you could email the TX NP Association and ask them at [email protected].

Thanks for posting this. I've already submitted mine and other friends and family have as well. This year elections will be very exciting.
