This House resolution states that climate change threatens public health and expresses the House’s view that federal agencies should coordinate efforts to address its health impacts. It calls for stronger climate readiness in health care, support for under-resourced providers and communities, better health data and public information, and the restoration and support of named federal offices and programs. It also urges the Department of Labor to establish a worker heat protection standard and calls for annual progress reports to Congress and the public.
The resolution would express support for these actions; it does not itself set out a new program or require agencies to take them. Its recommendations focus on health care readiness, heat protections for workers, and support for communities facing greater climate-related health risks.
The resolution names funding priorities but does not provide an appropriation or cost estimate. No publicly available information.
The resolution presents coordinated federal action, stronger health care readiness, and targeted support for at-risk communities as ways to protect health and well-being from climate-related threats.
