The BUMP Act.

Summary

The bill orders the state health department to give all pregnant people evidence‑based information on stillbirth prevention, including how to monitor fetal movement, and to train prenatal care providers on these protocols. It also sets aside $600,000 in state funds to create educational materials, provider training, and a public‑awareness "Count the Kicks" program, with special focus on high‑disparity areas. The effort aims to lower stillbirth rates by improving awareness and rapid response to warning signs.
