This week begins the 3rd week of the 2022 Florida Legislative Session! 

  • All bills have been filled: Be sure to take some time to review and know what you are voting for!
  • Redistricting continues to be a priority as all Florida Legislature seats plus the Congressional seats are up for discussion.
  •  Appropriation bills have passed committees and policy bills have begun moving forward.

A reminder: It is important to be involved and aware of what our Legislative Policy Priorities are as a united force of APRNs.  In joining our State Network (FNPN) these are our 2022 legislative policy priorities: (see the attached file from FNPN)

  1. Supervision of medical assistants in all settings
  2. Global signature
