Summary: The Rural Health Care Committee met to reorganize for the new interim, adopt its annual electronic meetings policy, and hear member priorities for the coming work. Members emphasized recurring rural health issues including access to primary and specialty care, workforce shortages, transportation barriers, maternal health and OB-GYN shortages, dental care, telehealth and broadband limitations, and the financial strain on rural hospitals. Several members also highlighted the value of mobile clinics, community colleges and K-12 pipeline programs, and bringing providers and local health departments into future meetings. Secretary of Health and Human Resources Marvin Figueroa briefed the committee on the worsening condition of rural hospitals and the impact of federal H.R. 1, saying Virginia’s rural health system faces major financial pressure and that the state’s Rural Health Transformation Fund is not a replacement for lost Medicaid-related support. He described the fund as a temporary opportunity to test new models such as mobile care, community paramedicine, workforce pipelines, and remote monitoring, while warning that coverage losses and service reductions are likely if the state cannot adapt quickly. Heidi Hertz, director of rural health transformation, then outlined Virginia’s approved plan and implementation timeline. She explained that Virginia will receive $189.5 million in year one, with funds needing to be obligated by October 30, 2026, and that the state must meet CMS metrics to avoid clawbacks or rescoring. She described the plan’s major workstreams: Care IQ for technology and innovation, Homegrown Health Heroes for workforce development, Connected Care Closer to Home for access and maternal care, and Live Well Together for prevention and chronic disease management, including Food is Medicine and consumer health technology. Committee members asked about local health department involvement, contracting structure, metrics, and funding sustainability, and Hertz said the committee would receive the presentation and that regional meetings and RFAs would roll out over the coming months. A public commenter thanked the committee for supporting a midwifery work group, and the meeting adjourned after members were encouraged to continue sharing ideas and helping publicize the program.

Summary: The joint meeting of the House Elections, Constitutional Amendments and Intergovernmental Affairs Committee and the House State Government Committee was called to consider House Concurrent Resolution 45, sponsored by Representative Jason Petri. The resolution would support calling for a federal balanced budget amendment through the Article V process. Petri argued that Kentucky’s own constitutional balanced-budget requirement shows the value of fiscal restraint, and he said decades of federal deficit spending and rising debt make a constitutional amendment necessary. Governor Ron DeSantis and Lauren Ends of the National Campaign for a Balanced Budget Amendment also testified in support, emphasizing the growth of federal debt, the risk of a future debt crisis, and the view that Congress is unlikely to solve the problem on its own. Members asked about the mechanics and risks of an Article V convention, including whether the convention’s “sole purpose” language would be enforceable and whether a convention could become a “runaway” process. DeSantis and Ends said states can impose guardrails on delegates, including criminal penalties and delegate-limitation laws, and noted that any proposed amendment would still require ratification by 38 states. They also said that if Congress chose to draft the amendment itself in response to state pressure, that would be acceptable. One witness said 18 states have passed faithful-delegate or delegate-limitation laws. Representative Callaway asked what would happen if the debt issue is not addressed. Witnesses responded that continued borrowing could lead to economic dislocation, higher interest costs, and a debt crisis that would crowd out other federal spending. They said the current debt burden is already more than $100,000 per U.S. citizen and roughly $300,000 per taxpayer, and that a balanced budget amendment would be a first step toward stopping the growth of debt before any long-term paydown could occur. The transcript provided does not show a final vote or other committee action on the resolution.
