Purpose and Summary

No Pro-Abortion Task Force Act

This bill prohibits the use of federal funding for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Reproductive Healthcare Access Task Force or any successor or substantially similar task force.

HHS launched the task force on January 21, 2022, to identify and coordinate departmental activities related to accessing sexual and reproductive health care.

Bill 119 HR 49, also known as the "Prohibition of Federal Funds for HHS Reproductive Healthcare Access Task Force Act," aims to prevent the use of Federal funds for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Reproductive Healthcare Access Task Force. The task force was established to address issues related to reproductive healthcare access, but this bill seeks to halt any funding for its operations.

The bill was introduced in the House of Representatives and is currently under consideration by the Committee on Energy and Commerce. If passed, it would effectively defund the task force and prevent it from carrying out its intended purpose.

Supporters of the bill argue that Federal funds should not be used to support initiatives related to reproductive healthcare, while opponents believe that the task force plays a crucial role in addressing important healthcare issues. Overall, Bill 119 HR 49 is a contentious piece of legislation that highlights the ongoing debate surrounding reproductive healthcare access in the United States. It remains to be seen how the bill will progress through the legislative process and what impact it may have on the future of the HHS Reproductive Healthcare Access Task Force.
