Explanation

(This amendment restores $17.5 million from the general fund the second year to add a Medicaid adult dental benefit to take effect on July 1, 2021. This benefit was funded in the 2020 Appropriation Act to take effect January 1, 2021, but subsequently was unallotted in the April 2020 Reconvened Session and has been proposed to be eliminated in the Governor's proposed budget for the Special Session.)
