ABFAS Statement on 2025 APMA House of Delegates Propositions

This weekend, March 15–16, the APMA House of Delegates will vote on several propositions that seek to split the autonomy of the Council on Podiatric Medical Education, threatening the integrity of podiatric medical education. ABFAS leadership will attend the APMA House of Delegates to meet with the delegates and share our concerns.

ABFAS Positions on APMA Propositions Button

Maintaining an independent body to govern all aspects of education—including residencies, fellowships, specialty boards, and continuing medical education—is essential to maintaining standards, ensuring compliance with regulations, and protecting the future of the profession. The podiatric community must advocate for the preservation of this autonomy to safeguard the quality and integrity of education and training.

Take Action
We encourage you to express your concerns and ask the members of the APMA House of Delegates to vote NO on propositions G-25, H-25, I-25, J-25, and K-25. APMA members can find a listing of state delegates on the APMA website. If you are unable to access the delegate list, the APMA state component listing is available here.
