Brown Resolution Supporting Families Affected by Birth-Related Neurological Injuries Passes Senate

HARRISBURG - The Senate passed Senate Resolution 27, introduced by Sen. Rosemary M. Brown (R-40), to direct the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to study the feasibility of establishing a no-fault catastrophic loss fund to provide payments for claims brought as the result of birth-related neurological injuries in Pennsylvania.

"This resolution represents a critical step toward ensuring that families affected by birth-related neurological injuries receive the support they need," Brown said. "By exploring the establishment of a no-fault catastrophic loss fund, we aim to alleviate the financial burdens these families face and provide them with timely assistance."

The study will assess the potential benefits, costs and implementation strategies for such a fund, aiming to enhance the support system for affected families across the commonwealth.

"Our goal is to create a more compassionate and efficient approach to supporting families during some of their most challenging times," Brown said. "This study will provide valuable insights into how we can better serve our constituents facing these hardships."

The resolution awaits further action as the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee begins its study.
