BIG VICTORY for students, the profession, and patients! 👏 A court has granted preliminary relief, temporarily blocking the unlawful rule affecting PA students while legal challenges continue. The Court recognized that this rule would cause irreparable harm to PA students, programs, and the healthcare workforce—and that it is likely inconsistent with the law. This ruling provides critical, immediate relief after months of uncertainty. This is an important step, but not the final outcome. AAPA and @PAEAonline remain confident in our case and will continue fighting for a lasting solution. Read the joint statement: https://t.co/QNMbsK4fvY
