Bill Summary
A BILL To reauthorize the Young Women’s Breast Health Education and Awareness Requires Learning Young Act of 2009.
AI Summary
This bill reauthorizes the Young Women's Breast Health Education and Awareness Requires Learning Young (EARLY) Act of 2009 by extending its funding and authorization period. Specifically, the bill amends Section 399NN(h) of the Public Health Service Act by changing the existing authorization expiration date from 2026 to 2031, which effectively provides an additional five years of funding and legal authorization for the program. The EARLY Act, originally passed in 2009, focuses on breast health education and awareness, particularly for young women, and this reauthorization ensures that the program's important work can continue for another five years without interruption. The bill is straightforward in its approach, making a simple but crucial legislative adjustment to maintain ongoing support for breast health education initiatives.
