Thank you to these great rural health champions at work!

Texas is 51st in the nation with regards to affordability & access to care ☹️. Thanks to the many health care teams providing care to vulnerable rural residents, many of which keep clothes on our back and food on our tables. Decrease barriers = increase access! Stay strong!

One of my fav Tx State Rep receiving yet another award for his outstanding work on improving access to health care across the Tx Panhandle! Thank you Rep. Price! Four Price TXNursePractitioners Texas Nurses Association

Rural communities (esp in Texas) are definitely the strongest and hardest working best people in the world!

Patrick Svitek Dade Phelan Thanks for Great list but needs to include #SB915 Kelly Hancock and #HB2029 Stephanie Klick If you want more healthcare access, these bills pass. This is impt to rural TX, just ask us. #txlege TXNursePractitioners #MoreAccessMoreOptions Four Price Kel Seliger

GOOD NEWS! The TX House just unanimously passed HB 5, the bill to expand broadband to underserved communities. Reliable internet is a necessity in today's digital world. I look forward to seeing this bill passed into law and put into effect on behalf of rural Texans.

Since COVID, symptoms of anxiety and depression have skyrocketed. Texans need more mental health care providers. #HB2029 & #SB915 eliminate barriers and fully utilize our workforce to provide #MoreAccessMoreOptions to mental health care. #TxLege #TXLege87

It’s time for Texas to cut the red tape on APRNs and compete for the best health care workers in the country! #MoreAccessMoreOptions #HB2029 #SB915 #TxLege #TxLege87 Stephanie Klick R.D.

"The COVID-19 pandemic has added to the burden of nurses’ daily work in many areas, including forcing them into situations where they feel moral distress...." Learn more about what moral distress is and how to take action (Members Only): ow.ly/z2ff50EnQWB #MoralDistress

Texas is one of the most over-regulated states for APRNs, like NPs. More than half the states in the US, including CA, NY & FL, have better practice climates than Texas. #SB1700 #PatientsOverProfits #MoreAccessMoreOptions texans4healthcareaccess.org (1/2)

Panhandle families are tired of rising taxes, so I’m proud to earn TREPAC’s endorsement. They helped pass last year’s homestead exemption. To finish the job, I’ll fight with Greg Abbott to eliminate school property taxes!

I’m blessed to call Rep. John Smithee a mentor and friend. He’s fought for the Panhandle by protecting our water, standing for life, and delivering real results. I’m honored to have his endorsement and will always be pro-life, pro-family, and pro-Panhandle.

I see the border crisis every day. Rural clinics and hospitals are under strain, and dangerous drugs are flowing into our communities. I will stand with Donald J. Trump and Greg Abbott to secure the border and put Texans first. Our communities deserve safety and order.

After 4 years of Bidenomics, Panhandle families are still feeling the pinch. We shouldn’t have to deal with property tax increases on top of that. Like Governor Abbott, I know we need to eliminate school property taxes to protect homeowners & bring stability to family budgets.

I believe parents, not the government, should be making decisions about their children’s education and upbringing. Families deserve respect, freedom, and a voice. I’ll always fight for parental rights.

I’m hosting a Meet & Greet on February 3 from 5–7 PM, and I’d love to see you there. We’ll talk border security, parental rights, Panhandle values, and lowering the cost of living. Come be part of the conversation.

As a nurse practitioner and lifelong conservative from the Panhandle, I listen and fight for what our region needs. I’ll be a strong voice for families, seniors, and taxpayers, standing for commonsense Texas values every day.
