The power to shape our future and protect your patients is in your hands.
 
The Texas Legislature is meeting. Laws are being made. And they could directly affect you, and your patients. 

The good news? You have the power to help shape those laws. And now, it’s time to use that power.

Wednesday, February 15th, TDA is holding our Legislative Day event at the Capitol in Austin. Dentists from all over the state will come together to visit with legislators’ offices and talk to them about the issues we face, and why they are of utmost importance.

Join us at the Stephen F. Austin Royal Senesta Hotel for an orientation, and updates from important speakers. Then, walk with us to the Capitol, to meet face-to-face with legislators and their staff. Help us tell them our story—and why they need to act to help protect our profession, and the patients we serve. 

Together, we are powerful. When TDA members speak, lawmakers listen. There’s still time to be a part of TDA Legislative Day. Click here to sign up now!
