NHAAOM Legislation Committee

This Committee needs volunteers -- please sign up today!!

Purpose

  • Investigate 3rd party payment and parity laws (in NH & other states)
  • Monitor legislation (state and national--see Lobbying below):
    • Support pro-acupuncture legislation (by providing testimony, presenting at hearings, lobbying, generating public/professional support, coordinating letter campaigns, etc.)
    • Support legislation submitted by the NH Licensing Board or NHAAOM
    • Oppose legislation that would undermine or harm our profession
  • Work in conjunction with the NH Licensing Board in order to avoid duplicate legislative efforts and working at cross purposes.
  • Cultivate positive relationships with NH legislators

Lobbying

Click here to make a donation to our "Hire a Lobbyist" fund. Thank you for your generosity!

With every new member, the NHAAOM moves closer to being able to hire a professional Lobbyist to provide reports on legislative bills that may affect the practice of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in NH, and to act as our voice in the NH legislature. Until that day, we will have to serve as our own Lobbyists and rely on donations of professional services. Please contact us if you know a Lobbyist who would be willing to donate his or her services to the NHAAOM.
