Stop Congressional Health Benefits Act - Prohibits a Member of Congress from participating in or being enrolled in any Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) plan between July 1, 2010, through the date on which the Comptroller General reports to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Secretary of the Senate, and the Chief Administrative Officer of the House of Representatives that health care reform legislation has been enacted.

Makes this prohibition inapplicable if the Comptroller General determines by June 30, 2010, that such legislation has been enacted.

Requires OPM to provide for a period of open enrollment for Members of Congress beginning on the earliest administratively feasible pay period following the date on which the Comptroller General reports such determination.
