Maternal Vaccinations Act

The Maternal Vaccinations Act aims to increase vaccination rates among pregnant and postpartum individuals by expanding federal health programs. The bill amends the Public Health Service Act to include pregnant and postpartum people in existing vaccination awareness campaigns and adds new funding of $17 million annually from 2027 to 2031 for these efforts. It also requires health programs to specifically target racial and ethnic minority groups within this population to improve access and equity. These changes apply to federal health initiatives administered under the Public Health Service Act.
