Make your voice heard

Join TAFP and your colleagues in the fight for family medicine and make your voice heard in the state capital and in the halls of Congress.

TAFP Political Action Committee

The Texas Academy of Family Physicians Political Action Committee, the political voice of family medicine in Texas, speaks on behalf of more than 5,500 Texas family physicians and their patients. On our new Web site you can brush up on candidates and their stances on medical issues or join TAFPPAC in the fight to protect and strengthen family medicine.

Advocacy Resources

TAFP continually identifies the evolving challenges facing family medicine. With these issues in mind, the Academy educates policymakers and the general public on the topics important to family medicine while also arming members with advocacy resources that include one-page issue briefs, full multi-page documents, talking points, lobbying tips and more.
