CRNA Day at the Capitol is an opportunity to advocate for CRNA practice and patient safety by meeting directly with elected officials.

In 2026, over 200 CRNAs, SRNAs, and RNs came to Austin to advocate for the profession. 

Thank you for showing up for CRNAs and the future of nurse anesthesia--we look forward to seeing you next year!
