In this session, panelists will discuss how the results of the 2024 election will impact health equity. Election results can impact health equity through legislative influence, executive orders, budgetary priorities, judicial and other appointments, and policy priorities. A wide range of topics impacting health equity will be discussed including health care access, public health, affirmative action, reproductive health, and gender-affirming care. Some of the speakers for this panel will be chosen through a call for papers.
