     100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CONNECTICUT CHIROPRACTIC ASSOCIATION

 Mr. BLUMENTHAL. Mr. President, today I wish to recognize the 
Connecticut Chiropractic Association, Inc., CTChiro, as it celebrates 
100 years of extraordinary and exemplary advocacy on behalf of 
chiropractic doctors in Connecticut.
  Since its formation in 1918, CTChiro has demonstrated tireless 
dedication to the advancement of the chiropractic profession. The 
association seeks to support these doctors and their practices 
throughout Connecticut in order to improve public health policies and 
provide their patients with the best treatment possible.
  Endeavoring to raise awareness of the profession and make 
chiropractic care more accessible to the people of Connecticut, CTChiro 
diligently monitors healthcare legislation to ensure chiropractic 
services are a viable health option for residents. To meet the need for 
such medical care throughout the State, CTChiro strives to improve 
patient awareness of chiropractic services, while advocating for 
greater insurance coverage.
  Continuously seeking to raise the standard for doctors in the field 
and the treatment they provide to their patients, CTChiro also offers 
opportunities for its member doctors to access resources and continue 
with higher education. Thanks to the association's longstanding, 
consistent efforts, institutions, representatives, agencies, and 
Connecticut residents are able to see the importance and availability 
of chiropractic medicine. Additionally, they can feel secure in the 
services offered to them as a result of CTChiro's dedication to 
developing a more comprehensive and knowledgeable set of doctors.
  Since its establishment, CTChiro routinely prioritizes the creation 
of thorough, economical, and beneficial chiropractic care, supported by 
experienced, well-rounded professional doctors. I applaud their 
numerous achievements and hope my colleagues will join me in 
congratulating the Connecticut Chiropractic Association, Inc., on 100 
years of service and commitment to Connecticut chiropractic doctors and 
patients.
