URGENT ACTION NEEDED NOW: TO PROTECT NPs and PATIENT CARE IN TENNESSEE

We are looking for APRNs and RNS to come down to the Cordell Hull Bldg tomorrow at 12:00 noon to fill both the Senate Health & Welfare Committee and House Health Subcommittee meeting rooms as they consider SB 333 and HB 644 which will be detrimental to our Advance Practice Registered Nurses and to the citizens of Tennessee.

We would also like for everyone to call/email the Committee members and let them know that they need to vote No on these Bills as they adversely affect BOTH NPs and patients alike.

Attached is a letter template for you to use to email the Committee members.
