Soon we will have state sanctioned restroom breaks. This is absurd...that North Carolinian's can not visit their herbalist, employ a mid wife or seek some of natures remedies if this bill passes. And if it passes there it will pass everywhere. I suppose I'll have to visit the back allies to get my Kava Root.Proponents of the bill say it fixes a loophole in the current law that classifies out-of-state practitioners who practice without a license as Class I felons, while in-state practitioners who practice without a license are only guilty of a Class I misdemeanor. But what the bill actually appears to do is make it even harder for alternative practitioners who literally cannot be licensed in NC because their work is not "approved," to practice at all. After all, who is going to be willing to provide alternative medical services for consenting patients when doing so makes them a felon?
SB 31 is really just another way to target alternative practitioners and reign in the practice of medicine to only that which has been approved by the government overlords. And the timeline for defeating this bill is very short. Alternative practitioners in NC, and those who safely and successfully use their services, need your help now to successfully defeat this bill.
The U.S is not a free country people. After another five years of this erosion of liberties the only choice I'll be able to make on my own will be whether to have an abortion or not.
