How can I help support the candidates that advocate for APRNs? Without a well-funded PAC, MANP will be at a distinct disadvantage in the legislative session while advocating for your needs. Please donate to the MANP PAC.Political AdvocacyPolitical advocacy is beyond lobbying. At its core, advocacy is “the exercise of power by those committed to a cause in the face of the government’s power.” Advocacy is a tool for real participation in decision-making by the government and other powerful bodies. At the same time, advocacy must go beyond engaging “those committed to a cause" to engaging a larger audience — the patients of Mississippi. John Morgan Hughes, Lobbyist for MANP, has his boots on the ground advocating for APRNs. Over the past 9 years, John Morgan has served as a strategist and general consultant to over 70 political and public affairs campaigns. He has represented various clients including trade associations, municipalities, and private corporations in their advocacy and education efforts in the state of Mississippi. In addition to his experience in government, he has also been very involved in the start-up community, having led the creation and sale of 3 companies since 2005.
MANP is proud to support many candidates as well as current seat holders in both the House and the Senate. MANP also is active in supporting other candidates that support the nursing profession as well as opposing those who do not support our mission.
