It adds obstetric health care providers to the list of providers the campaign works with. It sets funding for the campaign at $17 million per year for fiscal years 2027 through 2031, replacing the earlier amount of $15 million per year for 2021 through 2025. It also adds raising vaccination rates among pregnant and postpartum individuals, including those from racial and ethnic minority groups, and their children, to the list of activities under a federal immunization grant program.
