Researching and Ending Disparities by Understanding and Creating Equity Act of 2020 or the REDUCE Act of 2020

This bill requires the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to implement a Health in All Policies demonstration project. States, territories, tribes, and local government entities may apply for grants through the project to establish or enhance collaborative approaches to improve the health of individuals and communities.
