The #HEALTexansAct (#SB1700) would lift restrictions on APRNs, like the nurse practitioners in these stories so that these providers can care for patients without barriers & extend more healthcare to Texans who need it most. Watch the full video: ow.ly/79EM50NJqJ7 #txlege

The #HEALTexansAct is about options to quality healthcare. 90% of Texans believe Texas should make it easier to get care from APRNs. 81% support removing the career-long requirement that APRNs contract with physicians. #SB1700 #txlege texans4healthcareaccess.org/single-post/ne…

If nurse practitioners are good enough for our servicemembers and veterans, they should be good enough for Texans. #HEALTexansAct #SB1700 #txlege #PatientsOverProfit
