Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 6703) to ensure access to affordable health insurance; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 498) to amend title XIX of the Social Security Act to prohibit Federal Medicaid funding for gender transition procedures for minors; providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 3492) to amend section 116 of title 18, United States Code, with respect to genital and bodily mutilation and chemical castration of minors; and relating to consideration of the bill (H.R. 4776) to amend the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 to clarify ambiguous provisions and facilitate a more efficient, effective, and timely environmental review process.
This House Resolution establishes the procedural framework for considering four distinct bills on the House floor. It makes it in order to consider H.R. 6703 , focused on ensuring access to affordable health insurance, and H.R. 498 , which aims to prohibit federal Medicaid funding for gender transition procedures for minors. For these bills, the resolution waives all points of order, deems them as read, and allocates one hour of debate before a final vote, permitting one motion to recommit. The resolution further facilitates the consideration of H.R. 3492 , a bill addressing genital and bodily mutilation and chemical castration of minors, by adopting a Judiciary Committee amendment and waiving points of order. Additionally, it mandates the adoption of a specific amendment to H.R. 4776 , a bill designed to clarify and streamline the environmental review process. This amendment to H.R. 4776 ensures that its provisions do not apply to agency actions where federal agencies initiated corrective measures between January 20, 2025, and the date of enactment.
