HEALTH Act

This resolution (HRES 10) proposes creating a new standing Committee on Health within the U.S. House of Representatives. It would establish this committee to oversee specific health-related matters, including biomedical research, public health programs, and health facilities funded by general revenues (excluding veterans' healthcare). The resolution amends House rules to add the Committee on Health as a standing committee, shifting jurisdiction from existing committees like Education and Workforce and Energy and Commerce. This change affects how the House organizes its legislative work on health policy, not the substance of healthcare laws. (Note: This is a procedural rule change, not a policy bill.)
