Announcements

In advance of the annual meeting, we are presenting recommended changes to the Membership and Order of Business sections of the Bylaws. See the ChiroCongress website to download a redlined version striking the current membership section as it is, and replacing it with simpler language based on attorney advice. This change will move the Policies and Procedures related to Regular Membership, or other classes of membership, out of the Bylaws. The change in the Order of Business is to align the language with Robert's Rules of Order. These changes will be presented for a vote at the annual business meeting on Saturday, November 9, 2019.

We are excited to announce the launch of the mobile app for our 50th Anniversary Conference, sponsored by VividSocial. It's easy and only takes 3 minutes!

Join us for the first-ever state-focused legislative training event in Washington D.C. January 28 – 29 at the Embassy Suites Hotel!  You will learn strategies for navigating the legislative process, receive training on developing and deploying grassroots efforts, and focus on developing cohesive messaging when going to “The Hill!”  

In addition, a special legislative reception will be held on Wednesday evening giving you an opportunity to personally connect with representatives.

As a follow-up to our message last week regarding current Medicare initiatives, the ChiroCongress board has voted to sign the ACA letter in support of H.R. 3654 - Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act of 2019. While ChiroCongress supports legislative efforts which we believe positively impact the profession, we encourage each association to independently assess support of legislative efforts with your association’s leadership team.

Should your association choose to support the effort, please reach out to Annette Bernat, ACA vice president of communications, at

abernat@acatoday.org. Please use the subject line: “2019 Medicare Bill”. Be sure to indicate the name and title of the person who should appear on the letter representing your organization (most list their president).

Please join us!
