The association has prepared an analysis of key provisions in H.R. 1 that affect essential hospitals, including a timeline of key dates for when provisions are scheduled to take effect and a discussion of policies that were considered but not included in the final legislation.
The Senate is set to begin voting this week on a $9.4 billion rescissions package. It is expected to begin today with a motion to discharge the package from the Senate Appropriations Committee. This could have a significant impact on the fiscal year 2026 government-funding negotiations. Congress must complete work on the package by July 18. After the rescissions package, the Senate is likely to vote on more nominations to close out the week. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) wants to confirm as many nominees as possible by August.
