Senate Bill 5577 – A bipartisan bill that expands Medicaid coverage for FDA-approved HIV antiviral drugs, ensuring patients have seamless access to life-saving medication without prior authorization.
Senate Bill 5559 – A proposed law to simplify the subdivision process in urban growth areas, making it easier to develop affordable housing in densely populated regions. Supporters say it will boost middle housing, while some groups call for clearer implementation guidelines. 2/28/25
