On Monday the 27th, SB 538 (the CNDA sponsored Scope Modernization Bill) was voted on and passed the Senate Business & Professions Committee! The vote was 5 in favor, 2 opposed, and 2 members abstained. We had great support from our schools who sent their professors to testify, the NMC, AARP and the California Chiropractors Association as well as many of our fellow doctors who rearranged their schedules to be present and show support. Thank you for helping make this happen!!
We cannot do this important work without support. YOUR support letters and YOUR donations have pushed us to the next step in making SB 538 law. Our bill will be heard in the Senate Appropriations Committee and then the Senate Floor within the next 4-5 weeks.
This means we don’t have much time to ensure we have a minimum of 21 votes to move out of the Senate and into the Assembly. We need to continue this great work and show our California legislators that the ND community is committed to the success of SB 538 100%.
Every effort matters! Here is what you can do to help:
(1) Schedule an in-district meeting with your local senate representative even if you have already spoken with them.
(2) Renew your membership.
(3) Donate to the CNDA! All of your donations will go directly to hiring more lobbying power and ensuring that we get the votes to pass this bill!
Call (310-670-8100) or email ([email protected]) Frances at the CNDA Home Office today and let us know how you can help!
SB 538 is on step 2!
