Summary

The joint resolution would replace Section 36(c) of Article IV with new language that limits MO HealthNet eligibility to adults ages 19‑64 whose income is at or below 133 % of the federal poverty level plus a family‑size adjustment. It also removes specific enrollment restrictions and lets the General Assembly set future eligibility rules, while requiring the state to seek maximum federal funding for the program.
