The No Shari’a Act ensures that U.S. courts rely exclusively on Federal and State laws when making decisions. This legislation prohibits courts and arbitrators from enforcing any foreign law, including Sharia law, if doing so would violate fundamental constitutional rights.

The Let Experienced Pilots Fly Act of 2025 raises the mandatory retirement age for pilots in certain commercial operations, generally known as Part 121 flights, from 65 to 67.

The Northern Arizona Protection Act invalidates the recent presidential designation of the Baaj Nwaavjo Itah Kukveni-Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument.

Future monument designations in this area will require an act of Congress.

This resolution authorizes the use of the U.S. Capitol rotunda for a lying in honor ceremony for the late Charles James Kirk.

The FIREARM Act aims to protect licensed firearm dealers from overly harsh penalties for minor or self-reported mistakes.

This Act, the Stop Greenlighting Driver Licenses for Illegal Immigrants Act, penalizes states that issue driver's licenses to individuals lacking proof of lawful presence.

The PRIME Act, or Processing Revival and Intrastate Meat Exemption Act, exempts custom slaughter facilities from federal inspection requirements for meat that is processed and sold only within the state of origin.

This bill mandates that the Forest Service aggressively suppress wildfires on high-risk National Forest lands, requiring extinguishment within 24 hours of detection.

The End the Vaccine Carveout Act fundamentally changes vaccine injury compensation by allowing individuals to choose between filing a claim through the existing National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program or suing the manufacturer or administrator directly in court.

Additionally, it specifically excludes COVID-19 vaccines from existing countermeasure liability protections.

The Veterans’ ACCESS Act of 2025 strengthens the Veterans Community Care Program by establishing clear, enforceable standards for care eligibility and wait times while streamlining the referral process.
