Texas Trouble: ASHA’s Quiet Power Grab Exposed

ASHA’s fingerprints are all over a sneaky new Texas bill—and the receipts are here. This episode exposes how ASHA is quietly pushing policies that keep SLPs trapped in their CCC web, fueling fear and gatekeeping in the profession.Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, and Preston Lewis, MS/SLP, break down Texas SB 905, revealing the hidden clause that inflates ASHA’s influence (and profits) and perpetuates its gatekeeping at the state level. The discussion unpacks what’s really at stake for SLPs nationwide and issues a clear call to action to fight back. Whether in Texas or any other state, listeners will learn why this bill matters—and why Fix SLP won’t back down.Want to earn some PDHs or CEUs with a discount?
