AB 1890 Passes Assembly Business and Professions

A Message from Mike West; President, California Athletic Trainers Association:

We are very happy to announce that our Title Protection Act – AB 1890 passed UNANIMOUSLY through its first committee hearing this morning with a 14-0 vote! The bill will still need to pass through the Assembly Floor, the Senate B&P Committee and the Senate floor before ending up on the Governor’s desk to be signed into law.

Today was a great accomplishment and brings us that much closer to regulation in California. Thank you to all of those individuals who wrote a letter in support of the bill. We sent 2,333 letters while our opposition only sent 301. This is a fantastic representation of the dedication and passion of our membership and we could not accomplish these things without you behind us. Our work continues as we head to our next step in this process, but we can certainly be proud of our accomplishment today. We will continue to need your support and will keep you updated when we have more information.
