On Monday, the American Medical Association’s House of Delegates voted to approve a resolution in support of the Prevention and Public Health Fund.  The resolution calls for the AMA to “oppose policies that aim to cut, divert, or use as an offset, dollars from the Prevention and Public Health Fund for purposes other than those stipulated in the Affordable care Act of 2010.”  Support for protecting these funds from a group as powerful as the AMA is good news for Public Health.

Interesting development. Wonder how much PHPF will go unscathed in the fiscal cliff negotiations.
