Reproductive Health Travel Fund Act of 2023
This bill establishes a federal grant program to help people cover travel and logistical costs when accessing abortion services across state lines following the Dobbs decision. It authorizes $350 million annually (2024-2028) for grants to community-based organizations that assist individuals facing barriers like transportation, lodging, childcare, meals, or lost wages while traveling for care. Grants specifically cover expenses related to accessing abortion services but cannot fund the abortion procedure itself. The program prioritizes organizations serving people in states with abortion bans or those traveling to another state for care, directly supporting those disproportionately impacted by restricted access.
