Chiropractic in the News

            The chiropractic message on PIP and concussion issues is starting to appear in media around the state. Here are links to several items from today’s news:

• Letter to the Editor in today’s Daytona Beach News Journal: FCA President Elect Jeremy Gordon responds to his local newspaper.
  
• Some positive PIP news: An op ed by Bill Newton with FCAN in the Sarasota Herald Tribune and several other newspapers around the state.
  
• Tallahassee reporter Mike Vasilinda’s video report, running on several stations, covering the concussion bill in the House yesterday. This report was run on several TV stations and includes an interview of FCA Govt. Rel. Director Jack Hebert.
  

PIP: Continue Messages to Florida House Members

            Thank you to all who have followed FCA requests to send messages and engage others in messaging Florida House members about the very bad PIP bill, HB 119 by Rep. Boyd. Please continue your activity as requested in the PIP poster issued by the FCA, as only one committee stop remains in the House and we believe that hearing could take place as early as this Friday, Feb. 17. If the bill is able to clear this hurdle, it would then be ready for floor action by the entire House.

In Response to Your Request: CE Make-Up Weekend

            In response to member requests, the FCA will offer a special CE Make-Up Weekend event March 23-25 at the Peabody Orlando Hotel. If you need more hours in order to complete your Florida DC or CCPA continuing education requirements for the current biennium which ends March 31st, CE Make-Up will give you the perfect opportunity.
