117-hr-1667, Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act
Supports mental health and resilience for health care professionals. It creates grants, an education and awareness campaign, best-practice guidance, and federal evaluation to reduce suicide risk, stigma, and barriers to care. - Health care professionals: Funds training, suicide-prevention best practices, and a national campaign to reduce stigma and encourage use of mental health and substance use disorder services. - Students and institutions: Hospitals, health professions schools, community health centers, rural health clinics, professional associations, tribal organizations, and government entities can get grants for training and capacity building. Grants may last up to three years. - Rural and workforce-shortage areas: Prioritizes health professional shortage areas and rural regions for awards and requires Secretary reports plus a Government Accountability Office (GAO) review within four years to assess program effectiveness and duplication. Authorizes $10 million per year for the education initiative and $35 million per year for mental health programs for 2022–2024, increasing federal spending over that period.

Modernizes and funds U.S. stem-cell and regenerative medicine programs. The law reauthorizes the C.W. Young Cell Transplantation Program, updates its scientific scope, and builds NIH–FDA coordination and workforce planning to expand access to cord blood and adult stem‑cell therapies. - Patients and families: Requires regular scientific reviews at least every 2 years to consider adding adult stem cells and birthing tissues to the program. The Secretary must complete the second review and send recommendations to Congress by June 30, 2025. - Researchers and regulators: Directs the NIH Director to consult across NIH and with the Food and Drug Administration to advance adult stem cells, autologous cells, tissue engineering, gene therapies, and genetically modified cell products. - Workforce and industry: Orders the Government Accountability Office to deliver a workforce assessment in 2 years that maps current jobs, gaps, training availability including good manufacturing practice training, and offers recommendations to boost capacity. - Program funding and operations: Authorizes $31.0 million per year for the transplantation program and $23.0 million per year for cord blood activities for fiscal years 2022 through 2026.

117-hr-1652, VOCA Fix to Sustain the Crime Victims Fund Act of 2021
Stabilizes and expands support for crime victims by boosting funding and raising compensation levels. The law directs new settlement money into the Crime Victims Fund and increases the share paid to victims. - Victims and families: Payouts go up. The law raises the compensation share to 75% of eligible costs and stops programs from deducting collections from restitution or subrogation when calculating awards. - Victim compensation programs: More funding sources and clearer rules. Deferred prosecution and non-prosecution agreement payments may be deposited into the Crime Victims Fund and "recovery costs" are redefined to cover personnel expenses tied to collection efforts. - Chief executives and emergency response: States get more flexibility. Chief executives may waive required matching contributions if they publish waiver policies, and they must waive matching in full for eligible programs during a pandemic national emergency from the declaration date until one year after the emergency ends. Requires Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) scoring and public reporting of the law's budgetary effects.

Programs may allow brand substitutions, waive some medical-documentation rules for noncontract formula, and lift monthly formula limits when needed. - State agencies and vendors: State agencies can get temporary waivers of administrative rules to keep benefits flowing. Waivers may run up to 45 days and can be renewed with 15 days notice. The Secretary must notify affected States and publish waiver determinations. - Manufacturers and federal coordination: Infant formula cost containment contracts must include remedies for recalls and require manufacturers to follow those contract terms during a recall. The Agriculture Department and the Department of Health and Human Services must sign a memorandum of understanding within 30 days to share information and coordinate responses to supply problems and recalls.
117-hr-521, First Responder Fair RETIRE Act
Preserves retirement creditable service and annuity eligibility for certain federal first responders who are permanently unable to return to their covered role because of an on‑duty illness or injury. The law creates a cross‑agency pathway so time spent in a related non‑covered supervisory or administrative job can count as covered service for annuity calculations.
