Protecting Chiropractic at the Capitol Starts with You

Every Minnesota chiropractor is directly impacted by decisions made at the State Capitol. Ensuring your voice is heard is essential—because when public policy changes, your profession is on the line.

The Minnesota Chiropractic Association (MCA) brings together the collective strength of chiropractors statewide, working with government experts and lobbyists to advocate for policies that promote and protect chiropractic care.

Our Advocacy Makes a Difference

Advocacy is a cornerstone of the MCA’s mission. Our experienced legislative team has been on the front lines, ensuring chiropractic care remains included in vital healthcare programs like HMOs, Medical Assistance, and MinnesotaCare. Without this commitment, chiropractic could have been excluded from critical areas like workers’ compensation and personal injury coverage.

But we can’t do it alone.


Your Voice Matters

A strong, unified grassroots effort is essential to competing with powerful interests at the Capitol. While we may not outspend those who oppose us, with widespread support from chiropractors like you, we can outmatch them in influence.

Healthcare continues to be a priority at the Legislature—and ensuring lawmakers understand the importance of chiropractic access is at the top of MCA’s legislative agenda.

With your support, anything is possible.
