MOMMIES Act
Key claim: The MOMMIES Act (HR9816, 119th Congress) was referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce on 2026-07-21.
Abstract
(HR9816 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-21): Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
Why this matters
The MOMMIES Act now has a House companion (HR9816) referred to Energy and Commerce, alongside the Senate version (S4913) at Finance — a bicameral posture that increases the visibility of maternal-health Medicaid proposals even though no substantive text is summarized in the referral notice. For patients, providers, and state Medicaid programs, the practical implications remain contingent on committee action and any released bill text.
