The "Respect State Housing Laws Act" repeals a provision in the CARES Act that restricted states' abilities to enforce their own eviction moratoriums. This change clarifies that state laws regarding evictions should be respected and not overridden by federal measures. By removing the subsection, the bill aims to restore states' authority over housing regulations and eviction processes within their jurisdictions.

The DISPOSAL Act mandates the sale or long-term lease of six specific, underutilized federal buildings in Washington, D.C., granting the Administrator of General Services broad discretion over the transactions.

This bill establishes the "More Affordable Care Act," allowing states to waive certain federal health insurance requirements if they maintain a high-risk pool, with residents potentially receiving equivalent federal funds in "Trump Health Freedom Accounts."

The Forced Abortion Prevention and Accountability Act establishes a new federal crime prohibiting the knowing and intentional administration of abortion-inducing drugs to a pregnant woman without her informed consent.

This act, the Heat Workforce Standards Act of 2025, prohibits the Secretary of Labor from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing the proposed rule regarding heat injury and illness prevention published in August 2024.
