Summary
End Diaper Need Act of 2019 This bill establishes various programs to increase access to diapers for low-income families with infants and toddlers.

The bill also permits states to use Medicaid funds to provide diapers and diapering supplies to low-income families with a child 3 or older who has been diagnosed with one or more specified forms of conditions that create a need for the use of diapers.
