TEXPAC gives physicians a voice at the crowded table of politics — and ensures elected officials are held accountable through a democratic, bipartisan endorsement process. Find out how you can get involved in getting the right people in the legislature.
We are at a crossroads. Legislative and regulatory threats to physician autonomy are growing. The only way to protect our profession — and our patients — is to get engaged and stay engaged.
Joining TEXPAC doesn’t mean you have to get political.

It means being part of something larger than yourself — an organized, respected voice that can open doors, shape legislation, and protect the values we all share. Our collective strength ensures we’re not just reacting to policy, but helping to write it. Whether you give, speak or simply stay informed, your involvement matters. The future of medicine in Texas depends on what we do now — together.
