    "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1.  A new section is added to chapter 70.47 RCW to read as follows:

    (1) The legislature finds that the basic health plan has been an effective program in providing health coverage for uninsured residents.  Further, since 1993, substantial amounts of public funds have been allocated for subsidized basic health plan enrollment.

    (2) It is the intent of the legislature that the basic health plan enrollment be expanded expeditiously, consistent with funds available in the health services account, with the goal of two hundred fifty thousand adult subsidized basic health plan enrollees and two hundred fifty thousand children covered through expanded medical assistance services by June 30, 1997, with the priority of providing needed health services to children in conjunction with other public programs."

    Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct internal references accordingly.
