What’s happening with Assuring Medicare’s Promise Act of 2025?
The Assuring Medicare’s Promise Act of 2025 is H.R. 609, which has been in the House Committee on Ways and Means since January 21, 2025. The committee members must act next to move the bill forward, but most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. This effort faces a high hurdle because similar legislation from the 118th Congress expired on December 16, 2024, without reaching the floor.
