Bill overview
This resolution encourages the remaining states that haven't expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act to do so, aiming to close the ‘Medicaid coverage gap’ which affects millions of low-income, uninsured adults. It supports a bill (H.R. 31) that would allow local governments to provide healthcare benefits to those in the gap. The resolution highlights the positive economic and health outcomes associated with Medicaid expansion, including benefits for hospitals and the labor market. It also emphasizes the importance of accessible healthcare for all Americans.
