“established by the state” is a restrictive clause used no less than 15 times throughout the entire act to limit or define what benefits shall be provided.
There was not a “glitch” 15 times.

And I’m looking forward to Scalia pointing out that brain glitches don’t count.
He might even remind them that if their position is honest (which it clearly isn’t), perhaps this is a teaching moment so they carefully consider, proofread, debate, and allow the public and editors a chance to review proposed legislation before voting.
It’s also a good chance to throw it in Pelosi’s face for her “must pass it to see what’s in it” line.
It would be funny if it weren’t so serious.
