## Summary

**Federal grants to cover travel and practical support for people seeking abortions.** This bill would create a Treasury-run grant program to pay for travel-related expenses and practical support like lodging, meals, childcare, translation, doula care, patient education, and lost wages. Grants may not be used to pay for the abortion procedure itself. - Families and people seeking care: Would help cover round-trip travel, lodging, meals, childcare, translation, doula support, patient education, and lost wages to reduce practical barriers to obtaining abortion services. - Nonprofit and community providers: Eligible 501(c)(3) and community-based organizations that provide unbiased, medically accurate assistance could receive grants and use up to 15 percent of funds for organizational costs like outreach, infrastructure, website work, and staff training. - States and legal enforcement: Gives priority to groups helping people from jurisdictions with bans or severe restrictions and those who travel across jurisdictions. The bill also preempts state, tribal, territorial, and local laws that would prohibit use of these funds and bars federal cooperation with antiabortion proceedings tied to funded activities or recipients. *Authorizes $350.0 million in appropriations each year for fiscal years 2027 through 2031, totaling $1.8 billion.*
