[Rep. Alyssa Black (Chair)]: Alright, we are back. Thank you for waiting with us. Our amazing legislative council has redrafted and made some edits, and we're going look at a new version of six eleven.
[Committee Assistant/Clerk]: Alright.
[Jen Kirby, Office of Legislative Counsel]: Jen Kirby, office of legislative council. I just sent this new draft to editing to be reviewed as well, so we may have a couple of little little tweaks to make once it's been edited. But here we go. We have draft 2.1. I took all the highlighting out of it, but I did add it in one new section. So again, nothing changed in section one. Section two was the new section that we looked at that was highlighted in the last draft that repeals that piece from the three forty b. Section numbers. And then we have here our new section six. This is the language from Health Care Advocate. A little bigger. So this is amending that BFARM language around eligibility. It doesn't change the eligibility itself. It just strikes the reference to the household income being calculated using modified adjusted gross income or MAGI as defined in the federal tax code. And then I've just updated the language here. It got partly struck through. So let's just get rid of it here To say not greater than 225% said no greater. So has a household income not greater than 225% of the federal poverty level? So taking out that the phrase that refers to the modified adjusted gross income and then just doing a what I believe to be a grammatical fix that the editors would make if I didn't, but if they change it back, I'll change it back. And that's it. Then I just took out the highlighting, renumbered the remaining sections so that we are still numerically correct. You have your 27s in there instead of 26s and your effective date is the same. That's it. All right. Any questions?
[Rep. Alyssa Black (Chair)]: Any questions on the bill?
[Committee Assistant/Clerk]: Exactly. No questions on this bill.

[Committee Assistant/Clerk]: Make a motion that approve version 2.1x611.
[Jen Kirby, Office of Legislative Counsel]: Permitted. Edited. That part down. That's what it was. Was amended, right? Well, draft 2.1 is the amendment. So I think if you six eleven draft. Yes, six eleven as amended draft 2.1.
[Rep. Alyssa Black (Chair)]: This is not a strike all. It is a strike all. It is a strike all, and it's as amended. So, Deb, you've got that right? It will be favorable with amendment. Favorable with amendment. Okay, second. So, if the clerk would like to commence call vote, Brian Cina.
