KANNE, Circuit Judge.
A group of Illinois acupuncturists and their prospective patients brought this suit challenging the constitutionality of the Illinois Medical Practice Act of 1987 (“MPA”). The district court concluded that the MPA did not violate the due process or the equal protection clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment and dismissed the plaintiffs’ case for failure to state a claim pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). Relying on Maguire v. Thompson, 957 F.2d 374 (7th Cir.), cert. denied, — U.S.-, 113 S.Ct. 73, 121 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992), we affirm.
