Payment of over one-half of that debt has come from the general operating budget of the Chiropractic Association of Louisiana and with only 200 members, the organization is faced with the very real prospect of having to call a halt to its defense of freedom of choice. As 1990 begins, Louisiana chiropractors face certain appeal of the decision in CAL v. the State. And, now, the stakes are higher than ever before, because only a favorable decision in this case can negate the overall impact of the Federal Appeals Court decision. Otherwise, a vigorous appeal by the state of Louisiana's Board of Trustees of the State Employees Group Benefits Program to the injunctive ruling could seriously jeopardize the hard-earned freedom of choice for state employees who seek chiropractic care. Our support to help them meet the legal costs of this on-going battle is desperately needed.
