2024-11-08 01:00:02

AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges) President and CEO David J. Skorton, MD, issued the following statement on the results of the 2024 U.S. presidential election: 

“At a time when challenges around the world are daunting and divisions in our country feel, at times, insurmountable, a historic number of Americans exercised their fundamental right to vote and made their voices heard. Now more than ever we are witnessing the need to come together as a country, bridge our divisions, and overcome the challenges we face. 

The AAMC will work with President-elect Donald Trump, the new administration, and the new U.S. Congress, continuing our efforts to improve the health of patients, families, and communities nationwide. This work will be critical to ensuring patient access to high-quality care, building, strengthening, and diversifying the physician workforce, addressing long-standing health inequities, and advancing medical research that leads to prevention, treatment, and cures for Americans across the country.  

As a nonpartisan organization, we are proud of the role we play in leading the academic medicine community, and we will continue to work together with policymakers from across the political spectrum to improve the health of people everywhere.”
