Hill Day

We are so excited to host our second Hill Day on Capitol Hill in Boise, Idaho! This year, Hill Day will take place on February 12, starting at 2:00 PM!

The goal for this Hill Day is to meet with members of the Idaho Legislators, share powerful stories from clinical practice and education, and the future of respiratory care. As the demands placed on respiratory therapists continue to grow, from managing chronic respiratory disease to responding to public health emergencies, our presence on Capitol Hill ensures that state leaders understand the critical role RTs play in every corner of healthcare.

If you are interested in attending Hill Day. Please RSVP here.

Hill Day 2025!

Thanks to those who were able to attend the Idaho Society for Respiratory Care Hill Day! It was a great event! We had students from Idaho State and Boise State Respiratory Care programs, as well as respiratory care practitioners from across the state! We learned about the legislative process from our wonderful lobbyist, Nate Fisher and then met with the Lieutenant Governor, Scott Bedke. He spoke with the group about the legislative process and shared his thoughts about our upcoming Compact Licensure Legislation.
