Mandating Ideological 'Unconscious Bias' Re-Education for Doctors
2025 - Virginia House of Delegates
Conservatives Oppose
Description
This bill forces physicians to undergo government-mandated 'unconscious bias' and 'cultural competency' training as a condition of renewing their medical licenses, embedding DEI ideology into medical continuing education. It diverts time and resources away from clinical excellence and toward politicized trainings. CPAC opposes DEI mandates that politicize professional licensing and opposed this bill. The House passed this bill on 2025-04-02 by a vote of 47-46. The Governor vetoed this bill.
