to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment,
amendment between the Houses, or conference report that would
create barriers for individuals who are eligible for Medicaid
by creating bureaucratic red tape, or onerous conditions of
eligibility that make it more difficult for people to access,
or result in eligible Americans losing access to, health
care.

suspended in the Senate only by an affirmative vote of three-
fifths of the Members, duly chosen and sworn. An affirmative
vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate, duly
