A resolution urging the protection of Medicare from the devastating cuts caused by H.R. 1.

This Senate resolution states that the Senate should protect Medicare from spending cuts that would be triggered by H.R. 1, the 2025 budget reconciliation law. It cites Congressional Budget Office estimates that the law will add $4.1 trillion to the deficit, which would trigger automatic across-the-board cuts called sequestration under the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010. It says the Senate should safeguard seniors' Medicare benefits and social services affected by those cuts. The resolution expresses the Senate's position and does not itself change law.
