Bill to improve access to home and community-based services for people with disabilities.
The problem
Many people with disabilities struggle to access affordable care services in their homes and communities instead of institutions.
The proposal
Expands funding and access to home and community-based services under Medicaid, removing barriers that limit service options.
The impact
People with disabilities, elderly individuals, families, and state Medicaid programs gain improved access to non-institutional care options.
Allows people with disabilities and elderly individuals to receive care at home or in their communities rather than institutions. This gives them more independence and control over their daily lives. Many people prefer being in familiar settings with family nearby.
Makes it easier for families to care for loved ones at home instead of placing them in facilities. Reduces burden on family members by providing more available services and support options.
Home and community-based care can be less expensive than institutional care. May reduce overall Medicaid spending while improving quality of life for recipients.
People in home and community settings often have better health outcomes and greater life satisfaction. Staying connected to communities supports physical and mental wellness.
Expanding Medicaid services will cost state and federal governments significant money. Budgets may need cuts elsewhere or tax increases to cover new programs.
Home care requires many workers, but there's already a shortage of trained caregivers. Bills expanding services may not work well without enough qualified workers available.
States must set up new systems and rules to manage expanded services. Different state resources mean unequal implementation across the country.
Shifting focus to home care could harm nursing homes and facilities through reduced residents. Workers in institutions may face job losses or wage pressure.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
