Winter 2009-2010 Promote real reform and utilization of naturopathic physicians across all states! The National Governor's Association/NGA winter meeting is in DC this weekend and they are taking a radical departure from their standard agenda. Virtually the entire program is rooted in divining opportunity in the face of health care crises Congress has left in the laps of the States. Our Governors manage the insurance industry, control licensing boards, and are responsible for public health. Promote naturopathic medicine as part of the NGA's developing agenda.

S. 3002, legislation that would dramatically - and unfavorably - impact consumer access to vitamins, herbs and supplements has lost its champion, Senator John McCain (R-AZ). In a letter dated March 4th, Senator Orrin Hatch thanked Senator McCain for withdrawing his support of the original legislation. Senator Hatch will now work with Senator McCain to ensure the 100+ million consumers who use supplements can continue to access safe products and FDA has the resources to remove harmful substances. This is a step towards collaboration that could have truly meaningful impact. Full implementation of DSHEA will benefit consumers greatly and represents a step towards changing the health care system from one rooted in disease to one grounded in wellness. AANP remains vigilant, however. There are many other Members of Congress who would welcome the kinds of changes this bill would require. As long as this bill is alive, it can in part or in its entirety be considered on the Senate floor. Almost 2500 emails have already been sent to the Senate from the AANP grassroots tool - CapWiz. Thank you to everyone who stepped up and proved we can make a difference! So let's continue our education efforts and make sure that every member of both the Senate and House understand that this is not the bill they should pass. Click here to write your Representative and here if you have not yet contacted your Senators. AANP will continue to monitor and alert you on all legislative efforts regarding DSHEA. Sincerely, Karen E. Howard Executive Director American Association of Naturopathic Physicians
Protect continued access to supplements and prevent the passage of S. 3002. McCain/Dorgan legislation in the Senate would cripple the supplement industry by requiring virtually every supplement, vitamin and herb to undergo a new FDA review.
