The bill amends Section 404 of the Social Security Act to state that nothing in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families part bars a state from using a TANF grant to support pregnancy centers. It defines a pregnancy center as an organization, such as a pregnancy resource center, pregnancy help center, or pregnancy medical center, that supports protecting the life of the mother and the unborn child and offers resources and services to mothers, fathers, and families, including relationship counseling, prenatal and pregnancy education, pregnancy testing, diapers, baby clothes, or other material supports.
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 15 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 26 quarterly reports filed by 1 lobbying firm and by 14 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. 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.
5 of them, in no ranking: Power to Decide; National Council of Jewish Women; Family Research Council; National Right Life Committee; Reproductive Freedom for All. Listed as filed, in the order the filings were read, and 10 others are not shown. These are not the largest, the earliest or the most active: we keep five names per measure, and the filings give no ranking.
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.
