Dear Colleagues
 
HB1195 and SB1750 to allow ARNPs to Baker Act will be on the agenda next week in the House and Senate.
 
Wednesday Feb 8 at 8 AM HB 1195 will be heard in the House Judiciary committee.
 
Thursday Feb 9 at 1:30 PM SB 1750 will be heard in the Senate Health Regulation committee. I will send room dates as they become available.
 
If you can come to Tallahassee to support we need you! Please consider trying to go. We also need emails to the Senate Health Regulation Committee. See below
 
Can you please forward this out to your groups and ask them if members can go to Tallahassee to support. It is especially  important that we get support for the Senate side on Thursday.
 
Please reply to this email or call  if you or a member can go. This bill has a real chance getting to the Governor.
 
Stan Whittaker and Mai Kung will be coordinating at the Capitol.
 
Sincerely,
Susan Lynch
