May 23, 2020 President's MessageColleagues, As we approach Memorial Day, let us take a moment to remember all those who have died during this pandemic. Politics aside, it is a tragedy to lose so many family members, friends and colleagues to an invisible and virulent enemy. On behalf of the Washington Academy of Physician Assistants, we stand in solidarity with those who have fought the brave fight and grieve with you. We honor our PA colleagues who have served and are serving in the military. I grew up in a military family and as an Air Force "brat "we supported my father's career by moving 14 times by the time I graduated from high school. We honor wives, husbands, sons and daughters who have made the sacrifice of a "normal" life by supporting their family's mission. Going forward, we are preparing another legislative year. I encourage all PAs to look to your local elections and find a candidate who will support Optimal Team Practice (OTP). Contact a candidate and interview him or her about their healthcare policy and make a contribution so we can garner support in the next session. This has to be an individual decision. WAPA cannot support individual candidates, but you can. Lay the groundwork now for our future. Thank you for all you do for your patients during these trying times. And thank you for representing our profession well. Eileen WAPA's 2020 Spring Conference was a Virtual Meeting via ZOOM April 25-29, 2020 | 28.5 hours of Category I CME Did you miss it?
