What it does
Congress reauthorizes two vector-borne disease programs under the Public Health Service Act through 2030.
Congress reauthorizes two vector-borne disease programs under the Public Health Service Act through 2030. It extends the authorization of appropriations for the national strategy and regional centers of excellence in vector-borne disease from the 2021 through 2025 window to 2026 through 2030. It makes the same extension for the program that provides enhanced support to state and local health departments addressing vector-borne diseases. The bill also removes a specific reference to the Tick-Borne Disease Working Group in the strategy provision and replaces it with appropriate individuals, and it adds language directing that the work include increasing capacity to identify, report, prevent, and respond to such diseases.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 2 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 2 quarterly reports filed by 1 lobbying firm in 2026 Q2. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
