We petition the Obama administration to:
Add Chiropractors to the federal loan forgiveness program
Chiropractors provide health care services to the public and are one of the few health care providing professionals who are not included in the loan forgiveness program. Chiropractic education is extremely expensive and is comparable to the educational costs of medical school. Chiropractors make considerably less than medical doctors starting out and many chiropractors start solo practices upon graduation. Chiropractors who can open their own practices will create jobs for chiropractic staff, so the faster the loans can be paid the sooner more jobs can be created.
