States could get extra federal Medicaid money for home and community care in 2026 and 2027. They would have to spend it on better services, more access, and higher support for care workers.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
HCBS Relief Act of 2025 is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.
Latest action on S. 2076: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects Medicaid enrollees who need help at home or in community settings. It also affects older adults, people with disabilities, direct care workers, family caregivers, home health agencies, and state Medicaid programs. States that apply could get more federal money, but they would also take on spending rules, reporting duties, and oversight work.
Why this matters: Many people who need daily care want to stay at home, but services and workers can be hard to find. This bill would give states short-term federal money to expand that care and support the workers who provide it. The bill could help reduce waiting lists and make staffing more stable. Its effect would depend on which states apply, how they spend the money, and what happens after the temporary funding ends.
