Bill Analysis
HRES 953, introduced in the 119th Congress, is a resolution that outlines the procedural considerations for four specific bills aimed at addressing health insurance access, Medicaid funding restrictions, and environmental policy amendments.
The resolution facilitates the consideration of the following bills:
H.R. 6703: This bill seeks to ensure access to affordable health insurance, although specific provisions and funding mechanisms are not detailed in HRES 953.
H.R. 498: This bill proposes an amendment to Title XIX of the Social Security Act, prohibiting federal Medicaid funding for gender transition procedures for minors. This regulation directly impacts minors seeking gender-affirming care and may affect healthcare providers and state Medicaid programs.
H.R. 3492: This legislation aims to amend Section 116 of Title 18 of the United States Code to address genital and bodily mutilation and chemical castration of minors. It seeks to establish federal prohibitions and penalties related to these procedures, thereby regulating medical practices concerning minors.
H.R. 4776: This bill proposes amendments to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) to clarify ambiguous provisions, aiming to streamline the environmental review process. This could affect federal agencies involved in environmental assessments and projects, as well as stakeholders in industries subject to NEPA regulations.
The resolution was agreed upon without objection, indicating bipartisan support for the procedural motion. The latest action on HRES 953 involved laying the motion to reconsider on the table, effectively concluding further debate on the procedural aspects of these bills. This resolution sets the stage for subsequent discussions and votes on the individual bills it encompasses, which could have significant implications for healthcare access, environmental policy, and the rights of minors in medical contexts.
