Earlier today, MAC Assistant Director Tim Gaughan attended a St. Patrick’s Day event for Democratic Floor Leader John Fitzgerald of Wyoming. A member of the Michigan House Insurance Committee, Rep. Fitzgerald is serving his second term representing the 83rd House District, which is located in Kent County, including part of Wyoming, southwest Grand Rapids, and part of Byron Township. Last term, Rep. Fitzgerald voted for House Bill 5956 [Public Act 255 of 2024 – MCL §500.3406jj[1]]. This legislation, developed by the MAC Government Relations team, incorporates the provider non-discrimination language in the Affordable Care Act [Section 2706(a)] into Michigan law, a tremendous victory for chiropractors and other non-MD/DO providers in our state.
