Advocating for Full Practice Authority (FPA) for Nurse Practitioners (NPs) is a critical step in ensuring greater access to quality healthcare for all Pennsylvanians. Currently, outdated restrictions limit NPs from practicing to the full extent of their education and training, creating barriers to care—especially in rural and underserved communities. Senate Bill 25 and House Bill 739 aims to remove these restrictions, empowering NPs to provide essential healthcare services without unnecessary physician oversight.
By attending Lobby Day 2025, you will have the unique opportunity to engage directly with state legislators, educate them on the benefits of Full Practice Authority, and share real-world stories of how these changes can improve patient care. This is your chance to make your voice heard and help shape the future of healthcare policy in Pennsylvania!
Together, we will rally on the Capitol steps, demonstrating the strong, united support for Senate Bill 25 and House Bill 739. Your presence is crucial in showing lawmakers that NPs and their supporters are committed to advancing healthcare access and improving patient outcomes across the state.
Schedule of Events:
9:00 a.m. – Meet in the Rotunda
11:00 a.m. – Rally on the Capitol Steps
Legislative Meetings: Appointments with legislators will be scheduled throughout the day, between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., based on their availability. Please plan your arrival and departure accordingly.
Join us and be a driving force for change in healthcare policy. Let’s work together to make Full Practice Authority a reality in Pennsylvania!
