A bill to exempt Medicare from any sequestration under Statutory PAYGO that is caused by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

This bill would exempt Medicare from sequestration, which are automatic across-the-board budget cuts triggered under Statutory PAYGO (Pay-As-You-Go) rules. Specifically, it would shield Medicare from any sequestration caused by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. If enacted, this would mean that if the One Big Beautiful Bill Act causes budget cuts to be triggered under PAYGO rules, Medicare would not face those automatic reductions. The bill is currently in the Senate and has been referred to committee for consideration. For Medicare beneficiaries and the program itself, this could mean more stable funding levels if the referenced legislation passes and would otherwise trigger automatic cuts.
