SURGICAL
SPECIALTY SOCIETIES LAUNCH STATE ACTION CENTER
The College has joined in a collaborative effort with 11 other
specialty societies to launch a new Surgery State Legislative
Action Center (SSLAC). The SSLAC is an electronic advocacy tool
that utilizes the same software program and zip code matching
technology that the ACS and many other national specialty societies
use for Federal advocacy efforts. This system matches surgeons
with their elected state representatives -- allowing them to
reach out to members of their state legislatures on an ad-hoc
basis or through a coordinated grassroots campaign. Please check
out the new state action center at http://www.facs.org/sslac
and look for alerts from the College and other surgical specialty
societies.
For more information about the SSLAC please contact Christopher
Gallagher, Manager of State Affairs, at cgallagher@facs.org. |
