Legislation

The Protect Minors from Medical Malpractice Act of 2025 establishes a private right of action allowing individuals to sue medical practitioners for injuries resulting from gender-transition procedures performed while they were minors.

The PLO and PA Terror Payments Accountability Act of 2025 mandates U.S. sanctions against foreign individuals and financial institutions that facilitate the Palestinian Authority’s system of providing payments to terrorists and their families.

These sanctions will remain in effect until the Secretary of State certifies that the compensation system has been fully terminated.

The MIRACLE Medical Technology Act of 2025 establishes a collaborative program between the United States and Israel to accelerate the development and delivery of innovative health care products and services.

By leveraging the combined expertise of both nations, the bill aims to strengthen supply chain resilience, advance medical manufacturing, and improve patient outcomes through shared best practices and infrastructure.

The Families’ Rights and Responsibilities Act establishes the fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and health care of their children.

The Spectrum Pipeline Act of 2025 mandates the identification and reallocation of at least 2,500 megahertz of federal radio spectrum for commercial wireless broadband and unlicensed use, such as Wi-Fi.

Additionally, it extends the FCC’s auction authority to ensure the successful deployment of these frequencies for high-power mobile services.

The Strengthening our Servicemembers with Milk Act requires the Department of Defense to provide a diverse range of milk options to service members at military dining facilities. The bill also mandates that all milk supplies be sourced exclusively from domestic or non-adversarial entities, prohibiting purchases from companies controlled by foreign adversaries.

The WEATHER Act of 2025 establishes a new, streamlined federal index insurance policy designed to protect agricultural producers from income losses caused by extreme weather events. This initiative mandates the development of accessible, data-driven coverage available nationwide, with a specific focus on reducing paperwork and supporting small-scale and underserved farmers. The bill also requires the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation to conduct research and stakeholder consultations to ensure the program effectively addresses modern climate-related agricultural threats.

The Coordinating Care for Senior Veterans and Wounded Warriors Act establishes a three-year pilot program to improve health outcomes and care coordination for veterans enrolled in both VA health care and Medicare.

The initiative will be implemented across select regions, including rural and medically underserved areas, to ensure better integration between VA and Medicare systems.

The Fire Suppression and Response Funding Assurance Act establishes a federal cost-share floor of 75% for fire management assistance and mandates the creation of clear criteria for increasing federal support during emergencies. Additionally, the bill directs FEMA to update its policies to allow for the reimbursement of state, local, and tribal governments for the predeployment of domestic fire-suppression assets.

The Noncontiguous Shipping Relief Act of 2024 proposes an exemption to current federal shipping laws, allowing certain foreign-built and foreign-registered vessels to transport cargo between noncontiguous parts of the United States, such as Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico. The bill establishes specific regulatory, labor, and environmental standards that these vessels must meet to operate in U.S. domestic trade. Additionally, it introduces new legal requirements for non-citizen entities that irregularly engage in U.S. coastwise shipping.

This bill proposes renaming the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia to the "Donald J. Trump International Airport." Upon enactment, all official U.S. documents, maps, and records referencing the airport would be updated to reflect this new designation.

The National Constitutional Carry Act seeks to protect the Second Amendment right of law-abiding citizens to carry firearms in public for self-defense. The bill prohibits state and local governments from imposing criminal or civil penalties on individuals who are legally eligible to possess firearms.

The Performing Artist Tax Parity Act of 2025 updates tax code deductions for performing artists by allowing them to deduct essential business expenses—including agent and manager commissions—directly from their taxable income. The bill introduces an income-based phaseout for the deduction, increases the "nominal employer" threshold, and implements annual inflation adjustments to ensure the policy remains current. These changes aim to provide greater financial relief for working artists by simplifying how they account for professional costs.

The Federal Insurance Office Elimination Act proposes the dissolution of the Federal Insurance Office (FIO) within the Department of the Treasury.

The Preventing Algorithmic Collusion Act of 2025 aims to curb anti-competitive behavior by prohibiting the use of pricing algorithms that rely on nonpublic competitor data. The bill mandates transparency by requiring businesses to disclose the use of such algorithms to customers and workers, while granting the FTC and the Attorney General authority to audit and penalize non-compliant entities. Additionally, it establishes a legal presumption of price-fixing when multiple parties use the same algorithm to set prices in the same market.

The Noncontiguous Shipping Competition Act aims to increase shipping options by allowing foreign-flagged vessels to operate on noncontiguous trade routes under specific conditions. This exemption applies only to routes that lack sufficient competition, defined as having fewer than three independent, coastwise-qualified operators each moving at least 20 percent of the freight volume. The bill seeks to foster greater market competition and improve service reliability in these regions.

The Public Lands in Public Hands Act prohibits the federal government from transferring ownership of publicly accessible federal lands to non-federal entities.

The Drug-price Transparency for Consumers Act of 2025 mandates that direct-to-consumer advertisements for prescription drugs and biological products include the wholesale acquisition cost for a 30-day supply. By requiring this disclosure for products costing $35 or more, the bill aims to empower patients to make more informed purchasing decisions and foster greater price competition. Manufacturers that fail to comply with these transparency requirements face civil monetary penalties.

This bill prohibits the use of federal funds to finalize, implement, or enforce the USDA’s proposed "Salmonella Framework for Raw Poultry Products." It effectively blocks the Food Safety and Inspection Service from moving forward with the regulatory changes published on August 7, 2024.
