H.R. 1333 · 115th Congress
Freedom to Use Contracted Entities Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 115th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill allows a state Medicaid program to use a contractor to make eligibility determinations on its behalf, so long as the contract does not provide incentives for the contractor to delay eligibility determinations or to deny eligibility for individuals otherwise eligible for medical assistance.
