A bill to amend title IV of the Social Security Act to establish requirements for biological fathers to pay child support for medical expenses incurred during pregnancy and delivery.
AI Summary
This bill, the Supporting Healthy Pregnancy Act of 2023, aims to amend the Social Security Act to establish requirements for biological fathers to pay child support for at least 50% of the reasonable out-of-pocket medical expenses incurred by the mother during pregnancy and delivery, provided the mother requests such support. The bill specifies that this requirement does not apply to expenses associated with abortion. The amendments would take effect on January 1 of the first calendar year after the bill's enactment, with a potential delay in implementation if a state requires legislative action to comply with the new requirement.
