Are ASHA elections really democratic? In this episode of the Fix SLP Podcast, Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, and Preston Lewis, MS/SLP, dig into ASHA’s so-called “elections,” exposing how the committee system hand-picks a slate, leaving SLPs with no real choice. They discuss the heavy tilt toward academia, why it keeps the same priorities in power, and how voting NO is a small but powerful protest. Learn why thousands of SLPs are removing CCCs from their signatures, dropping membership, and urging peers to vote NO to demand change. Tune in for candid insights, practical action, and our trademark Fix SLP sass.
