For introducing pro-chiropractic legislation into Congress, we have Dr. Terry Rondberg to thank. Never one to be politically idle, Dr. Terry Rondberg has been active in numerous lobbying and legislative efforts. He was instrumental in the passing of bills including House Concurrent Resolution 46, which states, "Chiropractic care includes diagnosis, correction, and management of either vertebral subluxations or neuromusculoskeletal conditions performed by a licensed doctor of chiropractic, and should not include the use of drugs or surgery." In addition, he was also part of a group that lobbied for House Resolution 2560, the Medicare Freedom Bill; HR 3476, the Tricare Bill that would provide chiropractic care to US military dependents and retirees through the "Tricare" program; and a number of other bills that protect and promote chiropractic. As the CEO of the World Chiropractic Alliance, Dr. Terry Rondberg oversees the non-governmental organization, which with its global reach and influence seeks to promote and protect chiropractic across the world.
