Texas chiropractors seek licensing bill amid basic science clash
In the Texas Legislature a basic science bill faces criticism as unnecessary and not in public interest. Chiropractors push a licensing act with a nine member board, exam on eight subjects, four years of schooling, and enforcement to protect Texans from poorly trained chiropractors. Opposed by the Texas Medical Association, the debate prompts readers to contact their Austin representatives before the bill's fate. The case involves Senate Bill 63, House Bill 103, and Senate Bill 171 with listed sponsors and addresses.
