Hardworking Seniors Act
Latest action (10 Aug 2026): Introduced
What this bill does
H.R. 10072 would amend the Internal Revenue Code to allow individuals enrolled in Medicare Part A to make contributions to health savings accounts (HSAs). Under current law, enrollment in Medicare Part A generally disqualifies a person from contributing to an HSA; this bill would change that rule, though the specific mechanics of how eligibility or contribution limits would work are not yet available in the bill's text.
The bill would primarily affect individuals who are enrolled in Medicare Part A, particularly those who continue working and remain covered by an HSA-eligible high-deductible health plan. It would also be relevant to employers and health plan administrators who manage HSA contributions for employees who become Medicare-eligible.
The bill was introduced on August 10, 2026, by Rep. Michelle Fischbach (R-MN7) in the 119th Congress. Its most recent recorded action is its introduction. As with most bills, it would next need to be considered by the relevant House committee before any further action, such as a committee vote or floor consideration, could occur. Its full text has not yet been published.
