Several bills in the legislature will have a significant impact on AHPA and its members. These bills, referred to as “anti-union” bills, seek to diminish your ability to belong to AHPA. The Association needs your help and is asking you to email your respective legislator. Attached to this message are two examples that can be used to aid you with this communication. The examples are specific to each of the political parties, depending on your legislator. Each state Senator and Representative need to know how these bills will impact AHPA and you. They also need to understand that AHPA is not beholding to a “national union” – the Board of Directors and the membership dictate the activities of the Association.
When sending emails, please blind copy the AHPA president (president@ahpa.com) and lobbyist (kelsey.lundy@rrpartners.com) so we can track the activity. This effort is in conjunction with our public safety association partners.
Your participation is imperative to make sure these bills are defeated. Your legislators need to hear from you!
Sincerely,
Jimmy Chavez – AHPA President
