A palliative-care bill backed by two Arkansas congressmen passed in the House last week.

U.S. Reps. Steve Womack and Rick Crawford, both Republicans, are co-sponsors of HR647, the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act.

The bill aims to bolster training about palliative care in medical programs and to support research in the area.

The legislation has been referred to a Senate committee for review.
