What is TANA PAC?
TANA PAC stands for Tennessee Association of Nurse Anesthetists – Political Action Committee.
The TANA PAC is an important component of the association’s issue advocacy arm. A strong and healthy PAC is the result of an active and engaged membership that understands the importance of contributions that give the association access to lawmakers who have the power and ability to impact legislation pertaining to the CRNA profession.
What is the value of making a CRNA PAC contribution?
Contributing to your association PAC is an easy and critical way to engage in the political process on behalf of your profession. No dollar amount is too big or too small to have a lasting impact on the strength and credibility of our PAC. The stronger the PAC, the more impact we can have with legislators to use those dollars to gain access and build key relationships that are integral to the continued growth and sustainability of your profession on a state level.
Please note that per Tennessee campaign finance law, TANA-PAC contributions are not eligible for federal income tax deductions.
What can I do to help further the efforts of TANA PAC?
First and foremost, you can help the TANA PAC today by making a contribution. Contributions can be made on a one-off, one-time basis, or you can set up recurring contributions to consistently contribute to the growth and strength of the TANA PAC. You can also help by joining the TANA PAC Committee to help the association generate interest, increase engagement, and ultimately build important relationships with Tennessee elected officials who have the power to impact the profession through the legislative process.
The elected members of the Tennessee General Assembly, which is comprised of 33 senators and 99 representatives, create and pass laws that have the ability to impact and direct your practice as a CRNA.
