Referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, and in addition to the Committee on the Budget, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
The End Diaper Need Act of 2025 would provide $200 million annually from 2026 through 2029 to help low-income families purchase diapers and incontinence supplies. States would distribute these federal funds through nonprofits, community organizations, and "diaper banks" to serve children under age 4 from families earning up to 200 percent of the federal poverty line, as well as low-income adults and people with disabilities needing incontinence products. The bill also allows medically necessary diapers to be purchased tax-free through health savings accounts and flexible spending arrangements beginning in 2026. States would be required to track distribution and report on outcomes, and the federal government would evaluate the program's health impacts, such as reducing diaper rash and infections. The assistance can be coordinated with other support programs like Medicaid and child care assistance.
