Our legislators are very active on social media especially twitter. We have already had a legislator and some of their staff members like some of our posts. We want to show our legislators that APRNs are engaged in this process. Its simple to create an account, follow the Az APRN coalition @azaprnco and AzNA @ArizonaNurses and like and share the posts
Make sure to use the hashtag #NursesCare4AZ so that we can like and retweet!
