HR 8024 United States House · 119th Congress

Maternal Vaccination Act

The Maternal Vaccination Act directs federal funding to expand a public health campaign focused on increasing vaccination rates among pregnant and postpartum individuals and their children. It modifies existing laws to include these groups in awareness efforts and specifically targets racial and ethnic minority communities to address equity gaps. The bill also adjusts the funding timeline and amount for the campaign, increasing the annual allocation from $15 million to $17 million for fiscal years 2027 through 2031. These changes aim to improve maternal and child health outcomes by ensuring broader access to vaccination information and resources.
