Supporting the designation of September 19, 2026, as "National Stillbirth Prevention and Awareness Day", recognizing tens of thousands of families in the United States that have endured a stillbirth, and seizing the opportunity to keep other families from experiencing the same tragedy.

This bill would designate September 19, 2026, as National Stillbirth Prevention and Awareness Day and lift attention to stillbirth prevention and awareness. It notes that more than 20,000 pregnancies in the United States end in stillbirth each year and highlights racial disparities that put Black, American Indian and Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, and Hispanic families at higher risk. The measure urges better data collection, evidence based prevention, research, and support for families and asks the President to issue a proclamation. It references the Maternal and Child Health Stillbirth Prevention Act of 2024 as expanding federal resources for prevention and research.
