Explanation

(This amendment adds $600,000 from the general fund in fiscal year 2027 to stabilize contraceptive care for Medicaid recipients who have received these services from Planned Parenthood providers which now face recent federal restrictions. This prevents unnecessary disruption to patient care while federal litigation proceeds, saving downstream costs to the state.)
