CDC Tribal Public Health Security and Preparedness Act

The CDC Tribal Public Health Security and Preparedness Act amends federal law to explicitly include Indian Tribes, Tribal organizations, and urban Indian organizations in public health security programs previously reserved for states and localities. It authorizes $750 million annually from 2027 to 2029 for cooperative agreements with these tribal entities to enhance their ability to prepare for and respond to public health emergencies. The bill removes matching fund requirements for tribal recipients and mandates that the CDC consult with tribes on program design, rule modifications, and waivers to ensure effective implementation. Additionally, it requires the CDC to conduct a review and submit a detailed report to Congress on how the program serves tribal communities and any infrastructure limitations encountered.
