In a Health Policy brief released this week, Derek Griffith and Andrew Twinamatsiko explore the laws and policies prohibiting the discussion of what the Trump administration labeled “divisive concepts” and their impact on health equity.
Through their research, the authors note:
Some states used the blueprint of Trump’s executive order and related directives to enact laws further restricting the discussion and teaching of these “divisive concepts” in educational and health policy contexts.
Education is a prominent battleground for discussion of these “divisive concepts,” in terms of both who is educated and what is taught.
This brief joins our series of “Culture of Health” policy briefs which highlight topics at the intersection of culture, policy, population health, and health equity.
Health Affairs' Jeff Byers welcomes Senior Editor Leslie Erdelack backto the program to discuss the latest hospital price transparency requirements that began in 2025, how many hospitals are actually following these regulations, and what effect noncompliance has on consumers' access to health care.
