S-3370 : Still Just a Bill

S. 3370, the "Promoting Maternal and Child Health Through Substance Use Prevention Act," aims to reauthorize the program on prenatal and postnatal health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

• The bill amends Section 317L(d) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247b-13(d)).
• It extends the program's authorization period by striking the previous authorization period ("2019 through 2023") and inserting a new one ("2024 through 2028").
• In effect, this bill ensures that the CDC program focused on prenatal and postnatal health continues to be funded and operational through 2028.
