Limiting Federal Funding for Medical Schools Adopting Certain DEI Policies.
This bill restricts federal funding and student loan access for graduate medical schools that mandate students or staff affirm specific tenets regarding race, sex, or systemic racism. Medical schools must eliminate Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) offices and mandatory diversity statements to maintain eligibility for federal financial aid. This change directly impacts institutional policies, potentially altering medical school curricula and admission processes.
Key points
Medical schools will lose federal funding, including student loan eligibility, if they compel affirmation of tenets like the US being systemically racist or classifying groups as oppressed/oppressor.
Prohibits medical schools from establishing DEI offices or requiring "diversity statements" for admission or employment.
Accrediting agencies cannot mandate medical schools adopt policies that violate these new anti-DEI requirements.
