| # | Version # | Sponsor(s) | Party | Summary | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | Version 1 | Conyers (MI) | Democrat | SUBSTITUTE Strikes the text of H.R. 3762 and replaces it with the “Cancel the Sequester Act of 2015,” which would eliminate devastating cuts to America’s domestic and military funding priorities. | Submitted |
| 3 | Version 1 | Lummis (WY), Buck (CO), Bridenstine (OK), Fleming (LA), Huelskamp (KS), Labrador (ID), Poe (TX), Walker (NC), Duncan (SC), Loudermilk (GA), Palmer (AL) | Republican | Repeals in full the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in addition to defunding Planned Parenthood. | Submitted |
| 2 | Version 1 | Price, Tom (GA) | Republican | Strikes the section repealing the Independent Payment Advisory Board. Clarifies that the prohibition on Federal funding to States for payments to prohibited entities applies both to payments made directly to a prohibited entity and payments made through a managed care organization and includes the standard exceptions covered by the Hyde amendment. | Considered As Adopted |
| 1 | Version 1 | Van Hollen (MD) | Democrat | Calls for bipartisan, bicameral negotiations to raise the Budget Control Act’s discretionary spending caps and establish appropriate offsets to allow appropriations action to proceed and to avoid a government shutdown. If the negotiations do not lead to a deal enacted by November 16, the caps for 2016 are automatically raised to the level in the President’s budget, eliminating the sequester for non-defense discretionary programs and providing the same amount of sequester relief for defense programs. | Submitted |
