Evidence

GovInfo records H.R. 9000 as introduced by Rep. Kim Schrier on May 21, 2026 and referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The bill would require CDC to run an evidence-based national campaign on type 1 diabetes detection, screening, and management, issue public education materials and PSAs, fund nonprofit and public-health grants, and authorize $5 million annually for FY2027-FY2031.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Direct evidence of serious legislative action toward the commitment, but only introduction/referral is shown; no enactment or implemented national campaign was found in the Aug. 21-23 lookback.

CDC published a public-facing type 1 diabetes screening page explaining that high-risk people can benefit from screening before symptoms, that early stages can be identified by screening, how autoantibody blood testing works, and where free screening programs may be available.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Shows some federal public-awareness and early-detection information existed during Schrier's term, but it is a limited informational page rather than the broader campaign, grants, and screening expansion contemplated by H.R. 9000.

Schrier made a serious same-term legislative attempt by introducing H.R. 9000 in May 2026 to create a national CDC campaign and grant-supported type 1 diabetes screening and awareness effort. The evidence shows only introduction and committee referral, with no enactment or implemented program attributable to her. A CDC informational screening page shows some related federal awareness activity, but it is limited and not enough to establish that Schrier delivered the promised expansion.
