Maternal Vaccination Act

This bill changes an existing federal public health law on vaccine awareness campaigns so that it also covers pregnant individuals and people who recently gave birth. It adds obstetric care providers to the list of providers involved in the campaign. It sets funding for the campaign at $17 million per year for fiscal years 2027 through 2031. It also adds a new allowed use of certain federal immunization grants: raising vaccination rates among pregnant and postpartum individuals, including those from racial and ethnic minority groups, and their children.
