Expand Health Savings Accounts for all Americans by removing outdated restrictions, increasing contribution limits, and allowing HSAs to cover wellness expenses.

The bill removes outdated restrictions that limit access to HSAs and significantly increases contribution limits, allowing more Americans to save and spend their healthcare dollars tax-free. It also expands eligible expenses to include wellness essentials, such as healthy food, vitamins, and fitness-related costs.

Burlison's healthcare plan would expand HSA access, raise contribution limits, and broaden eligible uses.

On April 16, 2026, Burlison and Barrett introduced H.R. 8324, a bill to increase HSA contribution limits and amend health-policy provisions tied to expanded HSA eligibility and qualified expenses.

Official congressional record shows Burlison filed the HSA-expansion bill in the House, including higher contribution limits and broader HSA use. This is concrete action toward the promise, but not delivery of the full policy.

The Congressional Record Index for May 5, 2026 still lists H.R. 8324 among Burlison’s 119th Congress bills, indicating the HSA-expansion measure remained an active legislative item in the record.

A later official index still tracks H.R. 8324 as one of Burlison’s bills, but it does not show enactment. That supports an unresolved status rather than delivered policy.

Public Law 119-21 enacted HSA-related provisions making telehealth safe harbor permanent, treating bronze and catastrophic exchange plans as HSA-compatible, and treating direct primary care arrangements as non-disqualifying coverage with eligible fees.

Official law text shows Congress delivered parts of the HSA-expansion promise: some eligibility restrictions were removed and direct primary care fees became HSA-qualified. It does not show the full promised expansion for all Americans, broad wellness expenses, or higher HSA contribution limits.

The House Clerk recorded H.R. 1 as passed on July 3, 2025, 218-214, and recorded Representative Burlison, Republican of Missouri, voting Aye.

Burlison took a concrete vote for the enacted package that partially expanded HSAs. This supports an effort badge and partial delivery, though the vote was on a broad reconciliation bill rather than a dedicated Burlison HSA bill.

Kiplinger reported that higher HSA contribution limits and fitness-expense eligibility did not pass, while direct primary care and ACA bronze/catastrophic plan HSA changes did pass.

This explains why the enacted HSA provisions should be scored as partial rather than delivered: key elements matching the campaign claim, including increased contribution limits and fitness/wellness expenses, were omitted from the final law.

The official Congress.gov public-laws list for the 119th Congress shows enacted public laws and does not list H.R. 8324 as a public law in the visible official results reviewed for this refresh.

The last-lookback check did not find official evidence that Burlison's later H.R. 8324 HSA-expansion bill was enacted. This keeps the unfulfilled portions unresolved despite partial delivery through Public Law 119-21.

On April 16, 2026, Burlison and Barrett introduced H.R. 8324, a bill aimed at expanding HSA eligibility, increasing contribution limits, and broadening qualified expenses.

The bill introduction is serious concrete action toward the remaining promise components. It supports effort, but introduction alone does not deliver the policy.
