    This Act may be cited as the ``Housing Opportunities and Mitigating 
Emergencies Act of 2005''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Gulf Coast region of the United States was recently 
        decimated by twin natural disasters: Hurricanes Katrina and 
        Rita.
            (2) Hurricane Katrina crashed into the Gulf Coast on August 
        29, 2005, as a category 4 storm.
            (3) At the time of its landing, Hurricane Katrina was 
        recorded as the third strongest hurricane to ever make landfall 
        on the United States, with sustained winds over 140 miles per 
        hour.
            (4) The damage and destruction caused by Hurricane Katrina 
        along the coastal regions of Louisiana, Mississippi, and 
        Alabama were unmatched in their breadth and scope.
            (5) A 10- to 30-foot storm surge came ashore on over 200 
        continuous miles of coastline from southeast Louisiana, 
        including Mississippi and Alabama, through to the Florida 
        panhandle.
            (6) The 30-foot storm surge recorded at Biloxi, 
        Mississippi, is the highest ever observed in the United States.
            (7) Hurricane Katrina's storm surge quickly breached the 
        levee system that protected the city of New Orleans from Lake 
        Pontchartrain and the Mississippi River, subsequently flooding 
        at least 80 percent of the city.
            (8) The magnitude of Hurricane Katrina was of such an 
        unprecedented scale that the Federal disaster declarations 
        which followed its destructive path blanketed over 90,000 
        square miles of the United States, an area almost as large as 
        the United Kingdom, displacing more than 1,000,000 people--a 
        humanitarian crisis on a scale unseen in the United States 
        since the Great Depression.
            (9) The storm has now become the most destructive and 
        costliest natural disaster in the history of the United States, 
        resulting in over 1,300 deaths and estimated damage between 
        $70,000,000,000 and $130,000,000,000.
            (10) Less than one month later, on September 24, 2005, the 
        region was battered again, this time by the strongest-measured 
        hurricane to ever have entered the Gulf of Mexico--Hurricane 
        Rita.
            (11) Hurricane Rita came ashore between Texas and Louisiana 
        as a category 3 hurricane, packing winds up to 120 miles per 
        hour and a storm surge of 10 feet.
            (12) A day prior to landfall, the resultant storm surge 
        also reopened some of the levee breaches caused by Hurricane 
        Katrina a month earlier and re-flooded parts of New Orleans.
            (13) Local storm surges of 15 to 20 feet in southwestern 
        Louisiana were reported, and damage was extensive in coastal 
        parishes.
            (14) Thousands of residents and families in the effected 
        States, who lived outside the 100-year flood plain and were 
        told they did not need flood insurance, suffered significant 
        damage to their homes and in many cases total losses.
            (15) These families are currently without any type of 
        permanent shelter or any means by which to acquire such shelter 
        or otherwise make themselves whole, thus crippling the Gulf 
        Coast region and its economy.
            (16) Because of the unprecedented magnitude of the storm 
        and the impact that the devastation of such a large region will 
        have on the United States as a whole, the Federal Government 
        should play a role in providing emergency assistance to these 
        families to help them rebuild and get on with their lives.

Costs.--Notwithstanding section 312, the Director shall assure that no 
owner of an eligible structure will receive assistance under this

                waived by the Director.

[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Health Equity and Access under the 
Law for Immigrant Women and Families Act of 2014'' or as the ``HEAL 
Immigrant Women and Families Act of 2014''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds as follows:
            (1) Insurance coverage reduces harmful health disparities 
        by alleviating cost barriers to and increasing utilization of 
        basic preventive health services, especially among low-income 
        and underserved populations, and especially among women.
            (2) Based solely on their immigration status, many 
        immigrants and their families face legal restrictions on their 
        ability to obtain health insurance coverage through Medicaid, 
        CHIP, and Health Insurance Exchanges.
            (3) Lack of health insurance contributes to persistent 
        disparities in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of 
        negative health outcomes borne by immigrants and their 
        families.
            (4) Immigrant women are disproportionately of reproductive 
        age, low-income, and lacking health insurance coverage. Legal 
        barriers to affordable health insurance coverage therefore 
        particularly exacerbate their risk of negative sexual, 
        reproductive, and maternal health outcomes, with lasting health 
        and economic consequences for immigrant women, their families, 
        and society as a whole.
            (5) Denying coverage or imposing waiting periods for 
        coverage unfairly hinders the ability of immigrants to take 
        responsibility for their own health and economic well-being and 
        that of their families. To fully and productively participate 
        in society, access to health care is fundamental, which for 
        women includes access to the services necessary to plan whether 
        and when to have a child.
            (6) The population of immigrant families in the United 
        States is expected to continue to grow. Indeed one in five 
        children in the United States is part of an immigrant family. 
        It is therefore in the nation's shared public health and 
        economic interest to remove legal barriers to affordable health 
        insurance coverage based on immigration status.

              INDIVIDUALS.

    (a) Medicaid.--Section 1903(v)(4) of the Social Security Act (42

Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of

(1), if they otherwise meet the eligibility requirements for medical 
assistance under the State plan approved under this title (other than

supplemental security income benefits under title XVI, or a State 
supplementary payment), and are lawfully present in the United 
States.'';
            (2) in subparagraph (B)--
                    (A) by striking ``a State that has elected to 
                provide medical assistance to a category of aliens 
                under subparagraph (A)'' and inserting ``aliens 
                provided medical assistance pursuant to subparagraph 
                (A)''; and
                    (B) by striking ``to such category'' and inserting 
                ``to such alien''; and
            (3) in subparagraph (C)--
                    (A) by striking ``an election by the State under 
                subparagraph (A)'' and inserting ``the application of 
                subparagraph (A)'';
                    (B) by inserting ``or be lawfully present'' after 
                ``lawfully reside''; and
                    (C) by inserting ``or present'' after ``lawfully 
                residing'' each place it appears.
    (b) CHIP.--Subparagraph (J) of section 2107(e)(1) of the Social 
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1397gg(e)(1)) is amended to read as follows:
                    ``(J) Paragraph (4) of section 1903(v) (relating to 
                lawfully present individuals).''.
    (c) Effective Date.--
            (1) In general.--Except as provided in paragraph (2), the 
        amendments made by this section shall take effect on the date 
        of the enactment of this Act and shall apply to services 
        furnished on or after the date that is 90 days after such date 
        of the enactment.
            (2) Exception if state legislation required.--In the case 
        of a State plan for medical assistance under title XIX, or a 
        State child health plan under title XXI, of the Social Security 
        Act which the Secretary of Health and Human Services determines 
        requires State legislation (other than legislation 
        appropriating funds) in order for the plan to meet the 
        additional requirements imposed by the amendments made by this 
        section, the respective State plan shall not be regarded as 
        failing to comply with the requirements of such title solely on 
        the basis of its failure to meet these additional requirements 
        before the first day of the first calendar quarter beginning 
        after the close of the first regular session of the State 
        legislature that begins after the date of the enactment of this 
        Act. For purposes of the previous sentence, in the case of a 
        State that has a 2-year legislative session, each year of such 
        session shall be deemed to be a separate regular session of the 
        State legislature.
