     to consider any bill, joint resolution, motion, amendment, 
     amendment between the Houses, or conference report that would 
     reduce health insurance access and affordability for 
     individuals based on their occupation, unless legislation is 
     enacted to provide comparable benefits and protections for 
     such individuals.
