Standing with Moms Act
Introduced Jan 23, 2025 by Rep. Nancy Mace
It's waiting on a committee vote to reach the full chamber. Most bills never leave this stage.
This bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to disseminate information about pregnancy-related resources, including information about abortion risks and alternatives.
Specifically, HHS must create a public website called life.gov that lists such resources that are available through federal, state, and local governments and private entities.
Additionally, HHS must create on its existing website a portal that provides a user, based on the user's responses to a series of questions, tailored information about pregnancy resources available in the user's zip code and risks related to abortion. HHS must develop a plan to conduct follow-up outreach to users of the portal (if the user consents to the outreach). States must recommend resources that meet criteria set by HHS for inclusion in the portal. HHS may award grants to states to establish or support a system that aggregates resources to include in the portal.
Further, the Health Resources and Services Administration must share information about the new website and portal through the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline.
