"Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did". -Newt Gingrich On May 3rd a historic course of events took place when over 100 doctors of chiropractic "Marched on Albany" to make our voices heard and that of our patients'. We met one on one with individual legislators and explained why they needed to support NYSCA/NYCC Joint Legislative Task Force's Technical Corrections Bill and other relief legislation. The DC's who attended were well briefed and prepared to answer the questions asked by these legislators. Afterwards, we all met for an informal gathering to wind down and socialize with each other. The day was a huge success and time will tell if out efforts were worthwhile. We will discuss the day's event at our meeting. In addition, the delegates report will be given on what transpired at the House meeting May 14-15, 2005. No matter what the outcome, all of us need to decide what our purpose is--in practice, in life, family… More than ever before we need to come together as chiropractors and fight this battle and win…once and for all. It will take hard work, commitment-both financial and time, but the ultimate victory will benefit all of us and our patients. We are unique, we are different and we are here to stay!
