This package combines a year-long funding freeze with specific extensions and permanent tweaks to health law subsidies. - Families and people buying marketplace coverage: Permanently removes the Affordable Care Act's 400% income cap and replaces it with a new sliding‑scale premium tax credit table, changing how subsidies scale with income. - Renters and homeless service providers: Renews HUD Continuum of Care grants and youth homelessness demonstrations for 12 months and allows Tenant‑Based Rental Assistance funds to be used to prevent loss of aid, using FY2025 fair market rents for renewals. - Federal agencies, researchers, and defense contractors: Keeps agency budgets and ongoing missions at FY2025 rates including NASA, NSF, and NOAA, restricts new Defense Production starts, and provides targeted sums for items like submarine obligations and prototyping. *The bill instructs that its divisions' budgetary effects not be counted on PAYGO scorecards, influencing scorekeeping treatment rather than stating an overall deficit impact.* ## Votes | Date | Chamber | Question | Result | Yea | Nay | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2025-10-09T11:45:00.000Z | senate | On Cloture on the Motion to Proceed S. 2882 | Cloture on the Motion to Proceed Rejected | 47 | 50 | | 2025-10-08T12:12:00.000Z | senate | On Cloture on the Motion to Proceed S. 2882 | Cloture on the Motion to Proceed Rejected | 47 | 52 | | 2025-10-06T17:31:00.000Z | senate | On Cloture on the Motion to Proceed S. 2882 | Cloture on the Motion to Proceed Rejected | 45 | 50 | | 2025-10-03T14:14:00.000Z | senate | On Cloture on the Motion to Proceed S. 2882 | Cloture on the Motion to Proceed Rejected | 46 | 52 | | 2025-10-01T11:02:00.000Z | senate | On Cloture on the Motion to Proceed S. 2882 | Cloture on the Motion to Proceed Rejected | 47 | 53 | | 2025-09-30T17:46:00.000Z | senate | On Passage of the Bill S. 2882 | Bill Defeated | 47 | 53 | | 2025-09-19T12:20:00.000Z | senate | On Passage of the Bill S. 2882 | Bill Defeated | 47 | 45 | ## Provisions PRIA read - WIC operations funding set: benefit, high.
