Legislative Activity

The LABEL Act proposes new federal labeling requirements for abortion-inducing drugs, mandating that the label include the dispenser's name and address, as well as the prescriber's name. This legislation also prohibits states or localities from enforcing labeling requirements for these drugs that are less strict than the new federal standard. The bill specifically defines which drugs fall under this labeling requirement, excluding those used for ectopic pregnancies or to remove a deceased fetus.

The Firearm Access During Shutdowns Act ensures that essential firearm-related government operations continue without interruption during a federal shutdown. This legislation specifically mandates the continuation of the FBI's NICS background check system and related processing at the ATF, Department of Commerce, and Department of State. By deeming these functions essential for protecting life and property, the bill prevents delays in firearm transfers and export licensing during lapses in appropriations.

This resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that a statue honoring Charles "Charlie" Kirk should be accepted and permanently displayed in the U.S. Capitol. It recognizes Mr. Kirk for founding Turning Point USA and promoting principles of free expression, civic leadership, and limited government. The bill mandates that the statue be accepted by the Fine Arts Board no later than January 2, 2027, to commemorate his legacy.

The District of Columbia Medicaid Fairness Act adjusts the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP) used for calculating D.C.'s Medicaid funding.

This bill initiates impeachment proceedings against United States District Judge Deborah Boardman for high crimes and misdemeanors. The grounds for impeachment center on her sentencing decision in the attempted assassination case of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. The resolution alleges that Judge Boardman imposed an inappropriately lenient sentence based on ideological considerations, violating the constitutional standard of good behavior required for judicial office.

This resolution urges the Director of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to immediately reevaluate the safety of all chemical abortion drugs based on recent independent studies. It highlights concerns that expanded access, including mail distribution, may increase risks of abuse and serious complications. The measure specifically calls for the FDA to publicly release a comprehensive safety review incorporating real-world complication data.

The Preserving a Sharia-Free America Act aims to prohibit any individual who adheres to Sharia law from receiving immigration benefits, visas, or admission into the United States. This legislation mandates the denial or revocation of immigration status for adherents, making them inadmissible or deportable. Furthermore, any false statements regarding Sharia adherence to federal officials will result in severe immigration penalties, and all related determinations are explicitly barred from judicial review.

This proposed constitutional amendment would prohibit members of Congress from receiving any compensation for the duration of a government shutdown. If Congress fails to pass necessary funding, Senators and Representatives will not be paid until the government is fully operational again. The amendment also grants Congress the authority to enact laws to enforce this provision.

The Restoring Safeguards for Dangerous Abortion Drugs Act mandates that the FDA immediately revert the safety requirements for mifepristone to the 2011 Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS). This legislation also establishes a new federal cause of action allowing individuals harmed by illegally imported abortion drugs to sue the responsible entities. Finally, the Act explicitly bans the importation of mifepristone into the United States.

The No Funding for Lawless Jurisdictions Act restricts federal crime-fighting grants to state and local governments that limit cash bail for serious offenses or release convicted felons on personal recognizance. Furthermore, jurisdictions that cut their police budgets in the preceding year are ineligible for these funds, unless the cut was part of a fair, government-wide budget reduction. This legislation aims to ensure federal support only goes to jurisdictions maintaining traditional public safety and law enforcement funding standards.

This resolution supports the designation of a National Hazing Awareness Week to highlight the serious and often tragic issue of hazing on college campuses.

This resolution formally honors the life and legacy of Charles "Charlie" James Kirk, who was tragically assassinated at Utah Valley University. It condemns political violence and calls upon all Americans to reject extremism in favor of civil debate. The bill expresses deep sympathy to his family and urges a renewal of commitment to the values of faith, family, and freedom he championed.

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 Act is designed to prevent foreign legal codes from undermining the established constitutional protections guaranteed to all Americans.

This proposed constitutional amendment seeks to explicitly establish and protect the fundamental rights of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their children. It guarantees parents the right to choose educational settings, including private or home schooling, and sets a very high legal standard for government interference. The amendment further ensures these rights cannot be limited based on a child's disability status.

The Second Chance at Life Act of 2025 establishes new federal requirements for abortion providers offering chemical abortions involving two drugs. These rules mandate that doctors inform women about the possibility of reversing the effects of the first pill, mifepristone, at least 24 hours in advance. The law also requires specific signage in clinics and directs the Department of Health and Human Services to create an accessible, privacy-focused website detailing reversal information. Finally, it creates a pathway for civil lawsuits against providers who knowingly violate these new informed consent and disclosure mandates.

The Chloe Cole Act prohibits healthcare professionals from engaging in chemical or surgical mutilation of minors, defined as specific medical interventions intended to alter appearance or biological function related to sex. This prohibition is enforced through federal jurisdiction when interstate commerce is involved in the procedure. The bill also establishes a private right of action, allowing individuals subjected to these procedures as minors to sue participating providers, and sets strict liability standards for future violations.

This resolution expresses strong support for and officially designates **September 17, 2025, as "Constitution Day."** It recognizes the profound historical importance of the U.S. Constitution as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary. The measure encourages all Americans to observe the day with suitable ceremonies reflecting on the freedoms and responsibilities the document grants.

The AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act of 2025 mandates that the Secretary of Transportation establish a rule requiring AM broadcast radio receivers to be installed as standard equipment in new passenger motor vehicles. This requirement aims to ensure public access to AM radio signals, which are often used for emergency alerts. The bill also directs a GAO study on the effectiveness of AM radio within the national emergency alert system compared to other technologies. Finally, the Act preempts state and local laws on this matter and includes a sunset provision eight years after enactment.

The Pay Our Troops Act of 2026 ensures that active duty military personnel and essential civilian support staff continue to receive their pay if Congress has not yet passed the full budget for fiscal year 2026. This act provides automatic continuing appropriations from the Treasury to prevent a lapse in military salaries due to budget delays. The funding automatically terminates once a new budget or continuing resolution is passed, or on January 1, 2027, whichever comes first.

The SAFE Driving Laws Act aims to ensure that states only issue standard driver's licenses to U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. To comply, states must prohibit issuing licenses to non-citizens and must cooperate fully with federal immigration enforcement information sharing. States failing to meet these requirements starting in fiscal year 2027 will face the withholding of 50% of their federal highway funding.
