Your Most Powerful Advocacy Opportunities Your Representatives are back home this week and will return home again from March 17 to 21. The most effective advocacy tool you can use is to invite lawmakers to tour your center and meet your staff and board. This is when they see how effectively you are using your resources and why you need long-term funding. You can visit NACHC’s fly-in page to get all the information you need to support these visits.
An Important Advocacy Ask: Encourage Your Representatives to Join the Community Health Center Caucus. Your Representatives can show their support for your center by joining the revitalized Community Health Center Caucus. U.S. Representatives Troy Balderson (R-OH), Jen Kiggans (R-VA), Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), and Danny Davis (D-IL) are circulating a letter inviting their colleagues to join the bipartisan Community Health Center Caucus. The caucus will be a forum for Representatives and staff to learn more about health centers and how they improve access to primary care in underserved communities.

The Workforce Innovation Act of 2025 is Seeking Bipartisan Co-Sponsors! U.S. Representative Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) is leading the reintroduction of the bipartisan Health Care Workforce Innovation Act, bill number H.R. 935. Whether or not your Representative signed on as a co-sponsor to the previous version of this bill in the 118th Congress, we need your help again to educate members of Congress about workforce challenges and gain their support to expand funding for essential training programs at your health center.
