Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.

This resolution acknowledges that women have historically faced dismissal of their health concerns and loss of control over their own medical decisions, and calls on the federal government to ensure women receive respectful, patient-centered healthcare that values their input and protects their right to make decisions about their own bodies. The measure aims to address longstanding problems like doctors not taking women's symptoms seriously and medical decisions being made without women's full consent or participation. It does not create new laws but rather expresses Congress's commitment to improving how women are treated within the healthcare system.
