The HHS Office for Civil Rights said it is investigating a "major" health system in Michigan that may have fired an employee for refusing to use a patient's preferred pronouns—meaning those that align with gender identity rather than biological sex.

These images were taken at the 2025 American Medical Association (AMA) House of Delegates (HOD) meeting in Chicago. This annual meeting brings together representatives from across the House of Medicine to propose, debate and vote on resolutions that shape AMA policy. Once adopted, these resolutions guide the group's advocacy efforts on healthcare issues—whether in Congress, state legislatures or in formal recommendations to regulatory agencies.
