Plain-English Summary

The federal government would fund and support programs that track and control diseases spread by mosquitoes and other insects like ticks, helping states and local health departments detect outbreaks early and prevent the spread of illnesses such as Zika, West Nile virus, and Lyme disease. This would benefit public health agencies, healthcare providers, and communities by providing resources for mosquito monitoring, testing, and control efforts. The bill is currently under review by the Senate committee responsible for health policy.
