By my count, naturopaths attempted to gain licensure\xa0in 10\xa0states in 2014. (In states with two-year legislative sessions, the 2014 bill was in some cases a holdover from 2013). They attempted to increase their scope of practice in 4\xa0states.\xa0On the other hand, in Hawaii there was a rare legislative\xa0attempt to put more backbone in naturopathic regulation. In Utah, a single bill both increased scope of practice and\xa0stiffened\xa0regulatory requirements.\xa0\xa0There was\xa0a bill\xa0in Colorado which would have allowed "traditional naturopaths" a safe harbor from prosecution without registration. (It failed.)\xa0We won't count that in our tally because it wouldn't have affected the practice of\xa0"naturopathic doctors."
