It’s time to plan for late winter and early spring. The weather will almost certainly be dreary, and you’ll be wanting an escape from the darkness that pervades winter. What about a handful of mini vacations to the warm offices of NHMA where you can spend the ugly morning hours with your friends and colleagues determining what NHMA will advocate for during the 2025-2026 legislative session?
It's time to start thinking about legislation! Well, to be fair, our crack advocacy team would tell you it’s always time to be thinking about legislation and advocacy, but it won’t be long now before legislators start filing LSRs (legislative service requests) for the 2024 legislative session. And because 2024 is right around the corner, so is an incredible opportunity for members to get involved with NHMA’s advocacy: the legislative policy process!
