ACTION NEEDED IN ILLINOIS
Oppose Senate Bill 2936 as written and request a health freedom exemption to the
Dietitian Nutritionist licensing bill!
OPPOSE and AMEND Illinois S.B. 2936
Illinois current monopolistic Dietitian law is up for repeal in 2013
and Senate Bill 2936 is attempting to extend the law until 2023. SB 2936
is moving fast. The Illinois Dietitian and Nutrition Services law is
one of the most restrictive monopolistic Dietitian laws in the U.S. And
the new bill would make it even worse, increasing the civil fines for
unlicensed practice to $10,000, including anyone who practices in the
field of nutrition if they are not licensed as Dietitian Nutritionists.
This law needs to be repealed NOW! Or this law needs to have the health
freedom safe harbor amendment (see below) added to exempt unlicensed
citizens that nutritional advice from charges of violations. The bill
received amendments that are inadequate to protect the rights of all
citizens to recommend nutritional advice and the amendments kept in
place all of the violation penalties for practice without a license. The
bill continues to move forward, now scheduled for a 2nd reading on the S
enate floor on March 21, 2012. If you live in Illinois Click here to Take Action by entering your Zip Code to send an automatic message directly to your Illinois state legislators opposing SB 2936! Read More.
