The backing legislation, Health and Location Data Protection Act of 2022 (S.4408), was forwarded to subcommittee on June 15 but hasn't seen any action since [0]. That said, I don't know how quickly the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation moves through things. From skimming the previous meeting agendas [1], it appears that they often take months before discussing bills. It's possible that they will discuss this bill before midterm elections, but I'm doubtful. According to the Senate's schedule [2], the Senate has 33 more working days before midterms. I don't see enough momentum behind this bill to actually get it considered before midterms.
Fingers crossed for 2023, though.
