Increase access to mental health services and improve the quality of care for patients.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Mental Health Improvement Act?
The Mental Health Improvement Act, known as H.R. 3260, has remained in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce since May 6, 2025. The committee members must act next to hold a vote, but the bill has seen no progress for 14 months. Most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote, and this lack of action is the standard way most legislation ends.
