Key Points
Impact Analysis
Personal Impact
The bill would send $1.776 billion to Medicaid and attempt to reverse eligibility and funding cuts enacted through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. If passed, this could restore coverage for people who recently lost Medicaid access or faced reduced benefits due to those cuts. However, as a minority-party bill in committee, passage is extremely unlikely in the current Congress.
“there is appropriated to the Secretary of Health and Human Services $1,776,000,000, to address health care costs through funding for the Medicaid program under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.), including funding to eliminate the funding and eligibility cuts enacted in Public Law 119-21”
