[aca-members] Super Tuesday

The letter below was forwarded to me this morning. I thought this

information to be very timely, and may assist members of our profession as

we approach

Super Tuesday. The list serve appeared to be the most appropriate venue.

Please know that I can also attest to the facts listed by Ellen, but in all

actuality, the list should be much longer.

Harling, DC, FICC

Past President, MCS; Past ACA Alternate Delegate

Please forward this to the appropriate ACA officer:

Thank you ACA for presenting the candidate's views on chiropractic. I have

found this very helpful when deciding how to best use my vote.

I would like to know how to communicate to others across the country what

the chiropractic profession has experienced with Mitt Romney in

Massachusetts.

1. He actively worked against the chiropractic profession by

removing existing state

regulations that created a collaborative effort between the state

regulatory

agency and the MCS protecting the rights of college students to have access

to reasonable chiropractic care. This regulation had been in place, and

working well for 20 years. Romney did this without public notice or public

hearing.

2. He aggressively worked to totally exclude the chiropractic

profession from the

new state mandated, " Universal " health Insurance program.

3. He attempted to pass a law that would have limited

people injured in auto

accidents to a total of 10 visits with either a chiropractor or PT

combined.

According to Romney's proposal, any visits over the combined 10, WOULD

REQUIRE A REFERRAL BY A MD!

4. He refused repeated request throughout his entire time

in office to meet and/or communicate on any subject or concern with the

Mass.

Chiropractic Society, the only society representing the profession in our

state. In his entire term of office, he rejected every overture; there was

never any cooperation whatsoever between Governor Romney or anyone in his

administration, and any representative of the state chiropractic society.

thank you for passing on this information.
