Full Title:
Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research Reauthorization Act of 2025

Summary#

This measure was introduced in September 2025. It reauthorizes the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program by changing funding language and extends a cord blood inventory deadline. The text replaces a single appropriation line with two paragraphs: one that lists $31,009,000 and a second that authorizes $33,009,000 for each of fiscal years 2027 through 2031. It also amends a provision of the 2005 stem cell statute to change a cited year from 2026 to 2031.

It also moves the deadline or target year for the cord blood inventory provision from 2026 to 2031.
