Contact Senator Tann Parker to support SB 3055, the independent practice bill TODAY!

Posted 5 days ago by Christina Keil

Hello TNP Members, Sen. Parker Constituents,

 

Right now, Sen. Parker is still undecided on SB 3055, the independent practice bill for rural counties in Texas. On Monday, we plan to hand deliver the attached constituent sign-on letter with the names of all TNP members in his district. Please respond by end of the weekend if for whatever reason you would not like to be include in this letter.

 

If you haven’t placed your call to Sen. Parker’s office, there’s still time.

Please take a couple minutes to call Sen. Parker and urge him to vote "yes" on SB 3055 when the bill comes up in committee for a vote. Once you’ve placed a call, you can also send a ready-made email in our Action Center here.

Phone Script

Hi, my name is ____ , a nurse practitioner from ______ , Texas, and I provide vital healthcare to Texans in my community. As a constituent, I have seen firsthand the impact of lack of healthcare access in Texas. Texans desperately need more options for healthcare. SB 3055 would extend care to the Texans who need it most. Please put the needs of patients and families first, and vote “yes” on SB 3055 in committee. Rural Texans depend on it.
