Statement from the MMA on LGBTQ Rights to Health Care
June 16, 2020
MMA President Keith Stelter, MD
The Minnesota Medical Association is committed to achieving health equity and ensuring that all Minnesotans have an equal opportunity to achieve optimal health. No Minnesotan should face discrimination in care because of their sexual orientation, gender identification, race, religion, or any other characteristic. The MMA strongly opposes the Trump administration’s recent regulatory action to remove federal protections under the Affordable Care Act for transgender and other LGBTQ Americans seeking health care. At the same time, the MMA applauds the Supreme Court’s action today to ensure that members of the LGBTQ community cannot be discriminated against in the workplace. Minnesotans’ ability to practice good health requires a health care system that rejects discrimination in all forms.
