Nigerian Physician Advocacy Group Advocacy & Lobby Day | June 10,11th 2025

[Nneka S. Achapu]

Good afternoon! 

We’re thrilled to announce that the Nigerian Physician Advocacy Group (NPAG) is heading to Capitol Hill for an exciting Lobby Day on June 10 and 11! 🏛️✊🏿✊🏽✊🏾

We’ll be raising our voices for:

-   J-1 visa reform to support international medical graduates who strengthen our healthcare system

- USAID implications of loss of lifesaving health care assistance

- H.R. 1201 — Doctors Within Our Borders Act — making it easier for immigrant doctors to serve in America’s most underserved communities, thus helping the U.S. through international medical graduates 

This is a critical moment to stand together and advocate for fair, smart, and compassionate healthcare policies that recognize the contributions of Nigerian and international physicians across the U.S.

Asha Strategies is proud to represent NPAG and fellow Nigerian doctors, international medical graduates, and immigrant healthcare workers who keep America healthy. Let’s make sure Congress hears our stories and sees the impact we make every day!

 Follow us for live updates, photos, and ways you can support — even if you’re not in D.C.!
