What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "SAFE Training for OB-GYNs Act," seeks to amend the Public Health Service Act. It aims to provide coverage for expenses related to improving the reproductive health care workforce. The Secretary, through the Health Resources and Services Administration, would award grants, contracts, or cooperative agreements to graduate medical residency training programs. These funds would support training in sexual and reproductive health care, including abortion care. This is specifically intended for professionals who must seek such training in a different State due to a covered State abortion law. The bill authorizes $10,000,000 for each fiscal year from 2027 through 2031.
