Medical schools and residency programs could get federal money to teach AI skills. The bill focuses on safe use, bias, privacy, and real health care tasks. Grant-funded teaching materials would have to be posted online.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Latest action on H.R. 6077: Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects medical schools, residency programs, medical students, residents, and faculty. These groups would see new grant-funded training on how AI tools may be used in health care. Institutions that serve medically underserved communities could have a better chance of getting grants. Other schools could also use the teaching materials because grant recipients must share them online.
Why this matters: AI is already entering health care, but many doctors may not get formal training on how to judge these tools. This bill would put AI lessons into medical school and residency training. It could help clinicians use AI more carefully in diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient care. The effect would depend on how many schools get grants, how strong the lessons are, and whether other programs use the materials shared online.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
