Bill > A6180

This bill amends the Fiscal Year 2026 annual appropriations act to reassign a $2 million grant for a restorative maternal health birthing center from the non-profit organization Salvation and Social Justice to the Greater Mount Zion Community Development Corporation. Specifically, the bill modifies a line item in the Department of Health's budget under Family Health Services, changing the grant recipient while maintaining the original purpose of supporting a maternal health birthing center in Trenton, New Jersey. The Greater Mount Zion Community Development Corporation is a local non-profit that focuses on community development, historic preservation, maternal health, and workforce development initiatives. The bill does not increase the total appropriations for the fiscal year, but simply redirects the existing $2 million allocation to a different organization that will continue the intended maternal health project. The legislation will take effect immediately upon enactment.
