Opposed; not passed before end of session
Illinois’ a Sunshine Health Freedom Foundation awoke in 2012 to the Dietitians licensure bill being heard for renewal. In a long conversation with the Health Committee Chairwoman, Martinez, the bill was passed with an added license for clinical nutritionists. The group went to the state house in November, and organized in early 2013 to begin work on a Safe Harbor Exemption bill. Then a Naturopathic licensure bill, and a Colon Hydrotherapist licensure bill were introduced into the same committee. Both were defeated, and the group is looking for sponsors for the Health Freedom bill. They have been invited to join the Health Freedom Congress being held in their home city of Chicago in June, 2012
