Sample letter
Posted over 7 years ago by Alison Thornhil
As we push forward for full practice we continue to need support from our members in contacting our legislators and assisting in boosting membership. I am attaching a sample letter to send to your legislator. We know everyone is busy but ask that you take the time to contact your Legislators. We all know the benefits of full practice and we all want to see that happen in Louisiana. But it will take a strong force and all of us working together
