RE:     H.R. 999 (Representative Mike Rogers - R-AL)

Join forces with the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) and help pass H.R. 999!

Background: Congressman Mike Rogers (R-AL) recently introduced HR 999, an ACA-backed bill designed to extend chiropractic health parity to U.S. military retirees, 
dependents and survivors through the Defense Department's TRICARE program. HR 999 is identical to legislation introduced in the previous Congress with one important exception -- in HR 999 the definition of "chiropractic services" has been strengthened and improved to ensure DCs can operate within their state scope of practice.

The ACA is working with concerned lawmakers in Washington, 
DC to fully implement and fund the chiropractic care benefits Congress has approved for America's veterans and active duty soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. At the same time, the ACA is committed to passing new legislation 
designed to take the next step toward ensuring that all of Americas current and former military servicemen and women, and their families, have access to the chiropractic care services they need and deserve.

Status: To help H.R. 999 pass, we need additional co-sponsors of this bill.
