Children’s Health Protection Act of 2025

Sponsored By: Representative Nadler, Jerrold [D-NY-12]

Introduced

Summary

A dedicated Office of Children's Health Protection at EPA would focus agency rulemaking, research, and programs on environmental threats that disproportionately affect infants, children, and adolescents. It would also establish a permanent advisory committee to advise EPA and coordinate federal research and community and school efforts.

Show full summary
  • Families and children would benefit from targeted identification and assessment of environmental and safety risks to infants, children, and adolescents and from guidance on safer chemical management.
  • Local educational agencies would receive published resources to establish, maintain, or enhance school environmental health programs.
  • EPA and federal partners would gain a Director-level office that coordinates grants, research, community programs, and serves as co-chair on the President's Task Force, supported by a permanent Children's Health Protection Advisory Committee subject to the Federal Advisory Committee Act.

*The bill would authorize $7.8 million annually beginning in fiscal year 2026 for the Office and an additional $13.2 million per year for fiscal years 2026–2030 for related activities, increasing federal spending by those amounts.*
