ALL OPTIBOARDERS!-Send the Govenor of Alaska a message!!

[hcjilson]

I am told there is a bill in Alaska which has passed in the House and currently in the State Senate which will severely affect licensing in that State.It is an assault on the optical profession which will have repercussions, not only in Alaska, but down here as well.

The complete story as well as the bill particulars can be found in the Education and Professional Organisation forum

I have heard a lot of lip service paid to the fact we Opticians are powerless to do anything to change our lot.You are not powerless now.You have the ability to contact the man who can veto this law, should it pass.You may contact him at the address below and urge him to veto this bill
Senate Bill 270 (L&C)

I would urge you all to write, and to contact your friends in the industry to do the same.

When the dust settles on this one lets discuss where this might possibly have come from, and what can be done to prevent the SOB's from doing it again.For now just send the email!
