State Strategic Stockpile Act of 2023

This bill amends federal law to extend and improve funding for state medical stockpiles. It extends the funding period for state stockpile programs from 2023-2024 to 2024-2028 and requires states receiving funds to coordinate with local health officials and other states to share best practices. The bill also adds a requirement for the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to report on regional stockpiling approaches under the program. This directly affects states managing medical supply reserves during public health emergencies, with changes focusing on longer-term funding and collaborative planning.
