What this bill would do

The "Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act of 2025" amends the Congressional Budget Act of 1974. It creates a point of order to stop reconciliation measures that would cut benefits or enrollment for Medicaid. It also prevents reconciliation measures from reducing benefits or eligibility for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). These limitations are set to expire on January 20, 2029.
