White House Council on Fathers and Sons Act of 2026
This bill creates a new White House Council on Fathers and Sons to address issues affecting men and boys across the United States. The Council would be led by senior federal officials and tasked with promoting the roles of fathers and sons in families, reducing deaths of despair among men, and coordinating federal responses to challenges faced by fathers and sons. It requires the Council to consult with federal agencies, nonprofit organizations, and faith institutions while submitting regular reports to the President on its findings and recommendations. The Council would operate using existing funding from the Department of Health and Human Services, with participating agencies covering their own administrative costs.
