What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Pregnancy.Gov Act," directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to create a public website called pregnancy.gov. The website will serve as a clearinghouse to provide pregnant women and new parents with various resources based on their ZIP Code. Users can search for assistance within specific distances or online, and can opt-in to receive outreach via phone or email. The Act also includes a grant program to help States aggregate these resources. Additionally, the bill establishes strict rules regarding which entities can be included in the resource list.
