Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act
The bill guarantees equal legal status and mandatory life‑preserving medical care for infants born alive after attempted abortions and increases enforcement and private remedies for women, but does so by substantially expanding civil and criminal liability, reporting requirements, and federal enforcement in ways that raise costs, legal risk, and chilling effects for clinicians and providers.
Honoring Mississippi's Gestational Age Act.
The resolution returns authority over abortion policy to states—expanding local control and democratic responsiveness—but will produce uneven access to care, added travel burdens for patients, and potential increased costs for taxpayers and health systems.
Life Month Resolution
The resolution promotes social recognition and potential support for pregnancy and faith-based pregnancy services, but increases the likelihood that officials will pursue policies that restrict abortion access and create legal and professional risks for pregnant people and healthcare providers.
Expressing support for the recognition of March 10, 2025, as "Abortion Provider Appreciation Day".
The resolution publicly recognizes abortion providers and highlights clinic access and safety issues—potentially prompting protective measures and mobilization to address access—while risking increased polarization, unmet expectations for funding, and politicized government responses.
Expressing support for the Geneva Consensus Declaration on Promoting Women's Health and Strengthening the Family and urging that the United States rejoin this historic declaration.
The resolution signals support for women's well‑being while simultaneously reinforcing limits on U.S. funding or facilitation of abortion abroad, trading a domestic expression of support for continued restrictions on international abortion assistance and possible diplomatic costs.
SAD Act
The bill increases protections and accountability for people seeking reproductive care by targeting deceptive providers and expanding enforcement and transparency, but it also raises the risk of financial, legal, and chilling effects on nonprofit and faith-based clinics and could increase costs for taxpayers and reduce some local services.
Reproductive Health Travel Fund Act of 2026
The bill expands federal support to reduce nonclinical and travel-related barriers to abortion and provides substantial funding for community organizations—improving access for many low-income and marginalized people—while increasing federal spending, inviting legal conflicts with restrictive states, and still leaving procedure-costs and some access gaps unaddressed.
Dismemberment Abortion Ban Act of 2026
The bill protects patients from criminal prosecution and provides civil remedies for unlawful 'dismemberment' abortions, but it broadly defines prohibited conduct, criminalizes providers, expands federal enforcement, and is likely to reduce access to abortion care and create legal uncertainty for clinicians.
Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act
The bill substantially expands federal protections, funding, and safety supports to preserve access to lawful reproductive health services and protect providers, but does so at the cost of increased federal‑state legal conflict, litigation risk and uncertainty, and additional federal spending and administrative complexity.
Reproductive Health Care Training Act of 2026
The bill invests modest federal funds to expand and professionalize the abortion-care workforce—improving access, diversity, and telehealth capacity—while creating compliance burdens and leaving trainees in restrictive states facing geographic barriers to clinical training.
Promoting Human Flourishing in Foreign Assistance Act
The bill prioritizes preventing U.S. foreign assistance from funding or promoting abortion‑related activities and certain gender/DEI advocacy—providing clearer rules and limited operational flexibility—but does so at the likely cost of reduced reproductive and gender‑affirming health services abroad, constrained civil‑society and educational programs, increased compliance costs, and legal uncertainty that could weaken program effectiveness and U.S. influence.
Freedom to Travel for Health Care Act of 2026
The bill creates enforceable federal protections for interstate travel and assistance to obtain reproductive health care—expanding access and remedies for patients and helpers—while shifting significant legal exposure and litigation costs onto states and some private actors, and narrowing state policy flexibility.
MARCH for Military Servicemembers Act
The bill restores DoD-provided abortion care for eligible service members and beneficiaries—improving access and reducing costs for those populations—while creating political objections, potential strains on military medical resources, and a risk of legal challenges.
Reproductive Health Care Accessibility Act
The bill aims to improve sexual and reproductive health access and workforce capacity for people with disabilities through targeted funding, training, and technical assistance, but it requires new federal spending and introduces administrative and implementation challenges—and may face legal or political resistance in some areas.
Protecting Human Rights and Public Health in Foreign Assistance Act
The bill reduces compliance burdens for federal agencies and foreign-aid recipients but does so by stripping the State Department of certain rulemaking powers — creating legal uncertainty and potentially weakening the U.S. ability to condition aid for policy or security goals.
Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act
The bill preserves narrow exceptions allowing abortions in life‑threatening cases and for rape/incest and lets some hospitals keep Title X funds, but tight certification, reporting, and non‑funding conditions are likely to shrink Title X provider networks, increase administrative burdens, and reduce access to contraception and preventive care for low‑income patients.
Right to Contraception Act
The bill firmly protects and enforces nationwide access to contraception—strengthening reproductive autonomy and provider protections—while trading off substantial reductions in state regulatory flexibility, heightened litigation risk and costs, and increased conflicts with conscience‑based or religious objections.
SAVE Moms and Babies Act of 2026
The bill increases federal oversight and safety monitoring of medication abortion through in-person administration requirements and reporting, but does so at the cost of reduced access, higher patient burdens and costs, privacy/legal risks in restrictive states, and greater regulatory and market barriers for manufacturers.
Life at Conception Act of 2026
The bill simultaneously affirms certain reproductive protections (explicitly preserving IVF and contraception and limiting prosecution of pregnant people) while embedding fetal personhood and federal authority that could enable broad restrictions, litigation, and conflict with state laws over reproductive healthcare.
Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act
The bill gives federal prosecutors a new tool to curb adults transporting minors across state lines for abortions and provides implementation stability, but it substantially increases federal criminal exposure for helpers and risks deterring timely care for minors while expanding DOJ involvement and costs.
Closing the Contraception Coverage Gap Act
The bill expands and clarifies contraceptive coverage for Medicare populations—reducing out‑of‑pocket costs and improving access for many—but increases federal costs, imposes administrative burdens, and relies in part on studies whose recommendations may delay some benefits.
Support UNFPA Funding Act
The bill restores targeted U.S. funding to UNFPA to expand voluntary family‑planning, maternal‑health, and gender‑based‑violence services—improving health, education, and stability for millions abroad—while costing taxpayers a modest, but politically sensitive, sum and raising governance, voluntariness, and influence trade‑offs.
American Values Act
The bill prevents U.S. funds from supporting coercive population-control programs and abortion funding in Peace Corps activities, but at the cost of reduced reproductive-health services and research abroad, funding uncertainty for aid organizations, and some implementation costs for taxpayers.
SAFE KIDS Act
The bill trades stronger protections against exploitative, cross-border surrogacy and clearer rules for oversight and some U.S. parents for reduced paid surrogacy opportunities, greater legal uncertainty and litigation for many intended parents (especially immigrants), and risks that criminalization will push arrangements underground.
Prohibiting Abortion & Transgender Procedures on the Exchanges Act
The bill removes elective abortion and most gender-transition coverage from ACA Exchange plans—simplifying some federal and insurer obligations and reducing taxpayer exposure—while significantly restricting access and increasing costs and health risks for affected patients, especially low-income people and minors.
Forced Abortion Prevention and Accountability Act
The bill gives victims stronger civil remedies and imposes stiff criminal penalties to deter nonconsensual administration of abortion-inducing drugs, but in doing so it risks criminalizing use of FDA‑approved medication abortion, imposing large financial liabilities, and chilling access and telemedicine across state lines.
Reproductive Rights Are Human Rights Act of 2025
The bill increases U.S. advocacy, transparency, and support for global reproductive health and rights—potentially improving health outcomes and accountability abroad—while risking diplomatic friction, additional taxpayer costs, administrative burdens, and safety risks for local partners in repressive contexts.
Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2026
The bill increases federal transparency, evaluation capacity, and targeted education and research supports while imposing tight fiscal controls, rescissions, and health/funding restrictions that reduce agency flexibility and limit access to certain health and social services.
Abortion Is Not Health Care Act of 2025
The bill eliminates most federal tax deductions for abortion—preventing indirect taxpayer subsidization and clarifying deductible rules—while increasing out‑of‑pocket costs for many women (especially low‑income), creating privacy and administrative burdens for patients and clinicians, and adding IRS compliance complexity.
Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance Act
The bill ensures U.S. global health funds are not used for abortion‑related services—matching the preferences of some taxpayers and creating enforceable, stable rules—but does so at the cost of reduced access to comprehensive reproductive and maternal health services abroad, greater disruption and cost for aid providers, and less policy flexibility for future administrations.
