Description

The Pennsylvania State Nurses Association (PSNA) will hold its annual Legislative Day on Monday, May 1, 2023 in Harrisburg. Nurses and students are invited to join us as we advocate for the profession and our patients in Pennsylvania. Click here to see all of PSNA's legislative initiatives. PSNA's Legislative Day is an important and informative day for nurses in Pennsylvania. Unfortunately, nurses are under-represented in our state's legislature. Although we are the largest group of healthcare providers in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, only two members of the General Assembly are RNs. Therefore, it is our responsibility and privilege to share our knowledge and expertise with local officials. Legislative Day will begin with refreshments and presentations from PSNA staff and Pennsylvania leaders at Temple University Harrisburg. Attendees will then walk to the Capital to conduct pre-assigned meetings with legislators. From there, we will reconvene as a group to greet and promote PSNA's initiatives to officials as they enter the Senate floor. Attendees will have lunch on their own and are invited to return to the Capital for a guided tour before ending the day.
