## Summary

**Clear IDeA State definitions and mandatory NIH public reporting.** The bill redefines which states qualify as IDeA States based on a rolling multi-year median of NIH grant funding and requires new, public-facing annual reporting on the Institutional Development Award program. - Researchers and institutions in lower-funded states gain a precise test for IDeA State status. That determines which states' organizations are treated as eligible for IDeA program activity and attention. - NIH must publish program strategy and prior-year award details, including efforts to integrate IDeA States into major initiatives, the percentage of reviewers from IDeA States, and updates on state-to-state collaborations. - Policymakers and the public receive measurable outcome information on gains in research quality and biomedical workforce development over the last 5 fiscal years.
