Sudden unexplained death in childhood research grants appropriation

This bill appropriates funds from Minnesota's general budget to support research on sudden unexplained death in childhood (SUDC), directly affecting Minnesota-based research institutions, universities, and health systems. It creates a competitive grant program administered by the Commissioner of Health, allowing up to 5% of funds for administrative costs, with grants targeting causes, risk factors, and prevention strategies for SUDC. The bill requires annual reports from 2026 through 2030 detailing grant recipients, funding amounts, research purposes, and outcomes. This is a one-time appropriation, with unexpended funds remaining available until June 2029.
