TCA PAC – Your Voice in the Political Process
The Tennessee Chiropractic Association Political Action Committee (TCA-PAC) is the committee which supports state candidates running for State House or Senate.
TCA PAC serves as YOUR voice on the Hill! Through your support, the TCA can continue to fight exclusively for the chiropractic profession and the patients it serves by working to elect members to the TN General Assembly who understand our unique perspective, who have a record of supporting chiropractic bills and are willing to champion our causes on the record.
Why Should You Contribute?
Supporting TCA PAC is an essential part of each individual’s responsibility to give back to the profession they have chosen – chiropractic care. We must be proactive and plan for tomorrow – making sure our voice is heard and our message is clear – because later may be too late.
Your contribution has impact. Any donation you make to the TCA PAC helps strengthen our efforts. Please donate online today!
