Advocating for the health and safety of all immigrants

| 1 Min Read

In support of the health, safety and well-being of both undocumented and documented immigrants, the AMA submits extensive comment letters to the Administration, provides comprehensive statements for Congressional hearings, submits amicus briefs in federal courts, and makes powerful statements to the press. And we will continue to fight.

What we stand for

The AMA believes every individual, regardless of immigration status, deserves timely, accessible, quality health care.
