A Missouri bill is designed to limit diversity training and requirements for universities and medical schools. It would also ban diversity, equity, and inclusion requirements as part of the medical certification process. Neosho Republican Representative Ben Baker says his bill has guidelines to make sure medical schools don’t teach what he calls discriminatory ideology…

On the opposing side, Carol Glascock says the bill reduces learning, hurts patients, and contributes to negative health outcomes as well as health inequalities. A House committee has not yet voted on Baker’s bill.
