And hat tip to my home state of Missouri's own Sen. Eric Schmitt:

Yesterday, there were a lot of rumors floating around about the ban on Medicaid for illegal aliens being stripped from the bill.

Thankfully, that's not true. It's very much in the bill we just passed.

You can look it up below. Page 602. Section 77109.

Let's do that, shall we?

(Link to the actual bill)

And on page 602 it says:

SEC. 71109. ALIEN MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY.
(a) MEDICAID.—Section 1903(v) of the Social Secu
rity Act (42 U.S.C. 1396b(v)) is amended—
(1) in paragraph (1), by striking ‘‘and (4)’’and
inserting ‘‘, (4), and (5)’’; and
(2) by adding at the end the following new
