Residential Treatment Program for Pregnant and Postpartum Women
Section 201 · Sec. 201 ·
What this chapter is about
This part changes an older law about live-in drug treatment for pregnant women. An applicant must now send in a plan. The plan can say how it will reach women hit hardest. The top amount of money goes up.

What the document says
“Such plan may include a description of how such applicant will target outreach to women disproportionately impacted by maternal substance use disorder.”
The section amends section 508(g) of the Public Health Service Act. It inserts the words a plan describing, so that an applicant provides a plan, and adds that the plan may describe how the applicant will target outreach to women hit hardest by maternal substance use disorder.
What the document actually says
“Such plan may include a description of how such applicant will target outreach to women disproportionately impacted by maternal substance use disorder.”
That sentence, in plain words
The plan can say how a group will reach certain women. Those are the women hit hardest by drug problems in pregnancy.
What this is about
The law says may, not must. So this part of the plan is a choice. The plan itself is now required.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

What the document says
“in subsection (s), by striking ``$29,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$38,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
The section amends section 508(s) of the Public Health Service Act, replacing the ceiling of $29,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023 with $38,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
What the document actually says
“in subsection (s), by striking ``$29,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2019 through 2023'' and inserting ``$38,931,000 for each of fiscal years 2026 through 2030''.”
That sentence, in plain words
The old top amount was $29,931,000 a year. The new top amount is $38,931,000 a year. It runs from 2026 through 2030.
What this is about
A ceiling is the most a program may get. Congress must still vote to hand over the money.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
Each change that alters what somebody must do: the new plan an applicant must provide, what that plan may describe, and the new spending ceiling.
Purely mechanical amendments. Striking the words providing health services to insert providing health care services is a wording fix and is not recorded as a separate item.
The section works by amending section 508 of the Public Health Service Act, which is not indexed here, so nothing is recorded about the treatment program itself or what the rest of that section requires.
