Senator Nelson: A TMA Friend of Medicine
The Texas Medical Association (TMA) selected Sen. Jane Nelson (R-Flower Mound) as one of Texas’ best legislators from the 81st legislative session.
“Once again, it is Senator Nelson’s tireless work as a champion for Texas patients that earned her a seventh consecutive TMA Friends of Medicine award,” said TMA President William H. Fleming III, MD.
Senator Nelson received the Friends of Medicine award along with 11 other Texas lawmakers at the association’s annual winter meeting in Austin, Texas.
Despite what she calls “definitely a rough-and-tumble session,” Senator Nelson accomplished most of the goals she set for this session — protecting Texas’ property tax cuts, reforming Medicaid, improving immunizations, ensuring the safety of our foster children, and providing resources to find a cure for cancer.
