Naturopathic Doctor Registration Bill Update – May 13, 2008

The bill that came out of the Senate Finance Committee (HF 1724) is a much better bill than before.

MNHLRP wants you to know that the bill with the agreed upon amendments, as it came out of the Senate Finance Committee, is a good compromise. MNHLRP supports the bill without further amendments on the Senate floor.

Please call and email your Senator and let them know that this bill is ONLY ACCEPTABLE as it was passed by the Senate Finance Committee with the two amendments intact, one by the author, Sen. Torres Ray, and the other by Sen. Jim Vickerman.

The effects of the Vickerman Amendment are as follows:

The effective date of the legislation will be July 2009 instead of July 2008.

There will be a working group formed to develop recommendations and propose possible legislative modifications.

MNHLRP supports the actions by the Senate Finance Committee today on the Naturopathic Doctor Registration Bill! Specifically, we want to thank Senator Vickerman who made the motion, and note that he was strongly supported by Senators Dille and Fischbach.

The bill now proceeds to the Senate floor for their vote.

Thank you all for your hard work, dedication and patience.

Greg Schmidt, MNHLRP President
Victoria Welch, Board Member at Large
