Pennsylvania PAs - Support the PA Compact!

The PA Compact (HB 1961) is on the floor of the Pennsylvania State Senate awaiting a critical vote, and we need your voice!

Use the message provided to email your state senator and urge them to support HB 1961. Personalizing your message makes a real difference! Please share how the ability to practice across state lines would improve care for your patients and community.

The PA Compact is an interstate occupational licensure compact for PAs that offers many benefits to Pennsylvania. If adopted, it will:

  • Enable seamless multistate practice through license portability.
  • Improve access to care, especially in rural and underserved areas.
  • Strengthen recruitment and retention of PAs in Pennsylvania.
  • Support workforce flexibility during public health emergencies.
  • Help Pennsylvania meet commitments tied to federal rural health funding.

Just as important, the compact will NOT:

  • Expand PA scope of practice.
  • Override Pennsylvania's laws and regulations on PA practice.

Don’t wait, contact your senator today and ask them to support HB 1961! Your voice can help ensure patients across Pennsylvania have better access to high-quality care.
