Healthcare (Medicaid)

SJRES 84 is a joint resolution seeking to block a rule issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) under the Affordable Care Act. The rule, published in the Federal Register on June 25, 2025, aimed to improve affordability and integrity in health insurance marketplaces. If approved, this resolution would invalidate the rule under a federal disapproval process, preventing its implementation. This directly affects how health insurance plans are structured and priced for consumers using ACA marketplaces.

HJRES 123 is a congressional disapproval resolution targeting a specific rule by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). It seeks to nullify CMS's June 2025 rule titled "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; Marketplace Integrity and Affordability," which was published in the Federal Register (90 Fed. Reg. 27074). If passed, the resolution would block this rule from taking effect under procedures outlined in Title 5, U.S. Code. The bill directly affects the CMS regulation governing the Affordable Care Act's health insurance marketplace, not the broader law itself.
