Authorize robust federal funding for maternal and infant health programs during public health emergencies.
Occurrences
Evidence
Rep. Lucy McBath's official House website lists a May 19, 2026 press release titled 'McBath, Warren, 70+ Lawmakers Reintroduce Bicameral Bill to Address Maternal Health Risks During Public Health Emergencies.'
Assessments
Lucy McBath appears to have materially advanced the issue in her current House term by reintroducing a bicameral bill on maternal health risks during public health emergencies, but the evidence does not show enacted federal funding authority or a completed delivery of robust funding for maternal and infant health programs. That supports partial credit rather than full fulfillment.
