H.R. 741 — Stronger Engagement for Indian Health Needs Act of 2025

Civil Service

What it does

This bill elevates the Director of the Indian Health Service to the rank of Assistant Secretary for Indian Health within HHS, giving the position higher bureaucratic standing and direct reporting to the HHS Secretary. The change increases the number of Assistant Secretary positions at HHS from 6 to 7 and removes the separate Director-level position, making Indian health leadership structurally equivalent to other major HHS divisions.

Quorum's transparency scan found no buried provisions in Stronger Engagement for Indian Health Needs Act of 2025.
