    Texas Chiropractors: Disciplinary Actions Drop, Patient Advocates Push Back

    Texas Chiropractors Face Scrutiny: A Drop in Disciplinary Actions Raises Concerns Texas, home to over seven thousand chiropractors, has seen a significant decline in public reports of disciplinary actions. From one hundred twenty-five cases in 2013 to just four in 2022, the state boards actions have plummeted. This drop coincides with a twenty nineteen rule change that hides minor cases, such as late license renewals, from public view. Patient advocates are pushing for full transparency, as chiropractors have faced cease-and-desist orders from the Texas Medical Board for actions like diagnosing diseases or pushing unapproved treatments. These actions are not reflected on the chiropractic site. Texas ranks second nationally with over one thousand eight hundred reports against chiropractors over thirty-five years. Despite attempts to pass tougher penalties and prevent medical board overlaps, the governor vetoed the bill. The board assures that every complaint is evaluated and backlogs are being cleared faster. They are open to fixes in the next session starting 2027 to ensure patient safety without confusion. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Gore's Stability Crucial for Rangers

    Texas Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi was scratched due to left side tightness, leading to a bullpen game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The bullpen performed well, allowing just one run, but the offense was silent in a one-nothing loss. Now, MacKenzie Gore faces Zac Gallen in a crucial matchup. Gore has struggled with earned runs and walks, while Gallen has been inconsistent. The Rangers are dealing with injuries, including Wyatt Langford, Josh Smith, Chris Martin, and Robert Garcia. With a tough road trip ahead, the Rangers need Gore to stabilize the team. Tune in on Rangers Sports Network or Victory plus. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Texas' Corporate HQ Shifts: PR Stunt or Real Change?

    Big companies are moving their legal headquarters to Texas, promising economic growth and job opportunities. However, the reality often falls short, with minimal job creation and no significant changes in job listings or office expansions. Experts suggest these moves are more about public relations than actual relocation, as most create zero to a handful of jobs, mainly for lawyers handling the paperwork. Despite the hype, employment growth remains flat, and the real action happens where the people already live. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
