FSR Political Committee
What is the FSR PC?
The Florida Society of Rheumatology Political Committee (FSR PC) is a separate, voluntary, non-partisan, committee comprised of FSR rheumatologists. The FSR PC purpose is to protect YOU, your PRACTICE, and your PATIENTS, and gives 100% of member contributions to help elect physician-friendly candidates into the Florida legislature and executive offices.
How does the FSR PC identify physician-friendly candidates?
The FSR PC Chair and board members, review many factors in determining “FSR PC -supported candidates” including, but not limited to:
- Voting record on issues impacting the rheumatology community
- Recommendations from FSR members
- The candidates viability to conduct a competitive campaign with an expectation of victory
Why Should I Contribute to the FSR PC?
The FSR PC needs your help to elect candidates who understand and are sympathetic to the practice pressures challenging the rheumatology community – and to defeat those candidates who are not. The FSR Board of Directors each commit to a minimum of a $1,000 donation per year to help drive support for the legislators of the year awards. Your donation is vital in help grow the number of rheumatology friendly policymakers in Tallahassee.
