SB1033 Defeated



SB 1033 -- which would require physicians and surgeons, podiatrists, chiropractors and naturopathic doctors whose licenses are in probationary status to disclose this status to patients -- was defeated yesterday as it did not have enough required votes. This defeat was due to physicians and the medical societies contacting their legislators and asking them to continue to vote "no," or abstain from voting on the legislation. This is a big victory for CMA, and once again shows the power of organized medicine.
