"HOUSE REPUBLICANS PASSED yet another short-term spending bill Tuesday night to avert a government shutdown. It’s the fifth continuing resolution, or CR, this fiscal year (who’s counting, though?), and while it includes funding for a number of health programs left out of previous stopgap measures, the GOP once again excluded a program meant to help vulnerable new mothers and their infants.

The Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting program, known as MIECHV, expired at the end of September and is currently operating on leftover funds. A failure to reauthorize the program will lead to enrollment freezes, contract expirations, and staff layoffs. Native American communities, where families disproportionately experience poor health outcomes and scarce funding, would be hit the hardest. The program has been lauded as a model of evidence-based policy by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, which makes it all the more jarring that more than 120 days have lapsed without reauthorization.”*
