Dennis John Benigno Traumatic Brain Injury Program Reauthorization Act of 2025

# Dennis John Benigno Traumatic Brain Injury Program Reauthorization Act of 2025 **What the bill would do:** This bill would reauthorize and continue federal funding for programs that help people with traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). It appears to renew existing government initiatives focused on research, treatment, prevention, and support services for TBI patients. The bill is named after Dennis John Benigno, suggesting it may honor someone affected by traumatic brain injury. **Who it affects:** The bill would directly benefit people living with traumatic brain injuries, including military veterans, accident survivors, and athletes.

It would also affect state and local health agencies that administer TBI programs, as well as medical researchers and healthcare providers involved in treatment and prevention efforts. **Current status:** The bill was introduced in the 119th Congress and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full Senate. No further action has been taken at this time.
