H.R. 1447 · 116th Congress
Medicaid Equality Act of 2019
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 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.
No cosponsors.
This bill repeals, beginning in 2020, the enhanced federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP) that currently applies to every state that expands Medicaid coverage for individuals who are newly eligible under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
