APTA Wisconsin leaders have recently had opportunities to connect with Wisconsin gubernatorial candidates and share issues important to physical therapists and the patients we serve.
APTA Wisconsin President Sue Griffin attended a Packers watch party with gubernatorial candidate David Crowley, where she discussed APTA Wisconsin’s prior authorization legislation and the importance of easy access to physical therapy for Wisconsin patients.
State Government Affairs Committee Chair Lindsay Dolan also recently met with both major gubernatorial candidates, Tom Tiffany and David Crowley, to discuss issues important to physical therapists and the patients they serve.
These conversations give APTA Wisconsin the opportunity to engage with leaders across the political spectrum, share the value physical therapy brings to health, mobility, and quality of life, and help ensure our profession’s voice is heard.
Thank you to Sue and Lindsay for representing APTA Wisconsin through these important advocacy efforts.
Being present for conversations like these is an important part of building relationships with policymakers and making sure the priorities of physical therapists and the patients we serve are heard. Contributions to the WPT-PAC help make that presence possible, supporting opportunities for APTA Wisconsin leaders to attend events, connect with decision-makers, and keep our profession part of the conversation.
If you’d like to help support more of this work, consider making a contribution to the WPT-PAC!
