PAC dollars are needed to continue our fight for Full Practice Authority in Illinois for ALL APRNs!
ISAPNPAC - POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE
We are a political committee, governed by APRNs, organized for the purpose of raising and spending money to elect and defeat candidates that support our goals.
Why is this important?
Legislators introduce bills.
Legislators vote on bills.
Legislators gain support or opposition to bills with their colleagues.
Legislators hold positions on general assembly committees that have the power to move or “kill” bills.
So, what do contributions do?
Contributions help establish relationships with those legislators. We get “in front” of legislators at fundraisers, in their offices, and at the Capitol.
Relationships give us the opportunity to educate legislators about APRN issues and serve as experts on health care.
Remember, APRNs and patients, alike, are constituents of these legislators.
State legislators are elected by constituents. Thus, we need to have strong relationships with state legislators.
REMEMBER - "When we are not at the table, we are on the menu!" Being able to give contributions to legislators who support APRN issues keeps us at the table!
