SHINE for Autumn Act of 2025

This bill would let the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services give grants to states to track stillbirths, collect data on stillbirth risk factors, and build state and local capacity to study that data. Data collected with these funds would have to be deidentified so that patients and their health care providers cannot be identified. The Department would also have to issue guidelines to state health departments and vital records offices on collecting stillbirth data, and create public educational materials on stillbirths. Within five years, the Department would have to post a public report with educational guidelines on stillbirth and its risk factors.
