States would have to send abortion data to the CDC to keep some Medicaid family planning payments. The CDC would use the data to publish a national abortion report each year. States could lose that money if they knowingly send false data.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
Ensuring Accurate and Complete Abortion Data Reporting Act of 2025 is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Latest action on H.R. 627: Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects state health agencies, Medicaid programs, and people who rely on Medicaid-funded family planning care. It also affects the CDC, which would have to run the national reporting system and publish yearly reports. Researchers, lawmakers, public health officials, and advocacy groups would use the new data to understand abortion trends.
Why this matters: Abortion data is not collected the same way everywhere, and this bill would push states toward one national system. That could make it easier to compare abortion trends across states. It could also change how states collect sensitive medical data. Because the bill ties reporting to Medicaid money, a state’s reporting choices could affect family planning services.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
