Legislative Activity

The Life at Conception Act declares that the constitutional right to life begins at the moment of fertilization, defining all human beings as persons from that point forward. The bill establishes legal personhood for every member of the species *homo sapiens* at all stages of development. Additionally, it explicitly prohibits the prosecution of any woman for the death of her unborn child.

The "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act" ensures that infants born alive after an abortion receive the same medical care as any other newborn, mandating immediate hospitalization and requiring healthcare practitioners to report any failures to comply. Violators face fines, imprisonment, and potential prosecution for homicide or attempted homicide, while the mother of the child cannot be prosecuted. The bill also allows the woman who had the abortion to file a civil action against anyone who violated the act. It defines abortion and attempts at abortion, and renames "Partial-Birth Abortions" to "Abortions" in relevant sections of the U.S. Code.

The Asylum Accountability Act amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to impose permanent ineligibility for adjustment of status for individuals who fail to appear at their removal proceedings. This legislation removes the current 10-year limitation, ensuring that those who do not comply with court requirements remain permanently ineligible for lawful permanent resident status.

The Main Street Tax Certainty Act makes the 20% pass-through business income deduction permanent. By removing the current 2025 expiration date, this legislation ensures long-term tax relief for owners of qualified pass-through entities.

The "No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion and Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act of 2025" seeks to prohibit the use of federal funds for abortions and for health plans that cover abortions, while allowing individuals and entities to purchase separate abortion coverage with non-federal funds. It clarifies that premium tax credits and cost-sharing reductions under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) cannot be used for health plans that include abortion coverage. The Act also revises notice requirements for health plans, mandating clear disclosure of abortion coverage and any associated premium surcharges to enrollees. Exceptions to the funding restrictions are included for cases of rape, incest, or when the mother's life is in danger.

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to fix the number of Supreme Court justices at nine. For this amendment to be valid, three-fourths of the state legislatures must ratify it within seven years of its submission.

This bill mandates the immediate removal of the lesser prairie-chicken from the federal lists of threatened and endangered species. Furthermore, it amends the Endangered Species Act to permanently prohibit the Secretary of the Interior from designating the species as threatened or endangered in the future.

The "No Retaining Every Gun In a System That Restricts Your Rights Act" mandates the destruction of all firearm transaction records currently held by the ATF from discontinued businesses. Furthermore, it amends federal law to prohibit the future collection and transfer of these records to the government when a firearms business ceases operations. The bill also requires the ATF to submit a formal report to Congress confirming the number of records destroyed.

The Make the Migrant Protection Protocols Mandatory Act of 2025 amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to require, rather than permit, the return of certain noncitizens to Mexico or Canada while their immigration proceedings are pending. This legislation removes discretionary authority from the Department of Homeland Security, effectively mandating the implementation of the "Remain in Mexico" policy.

The SHOW UP Act of 2025 requires executive agencies to revert their telework policies to pre-pandemic levels by December 31, 2019. Any future expansion of telework must be supported by a comprehensive impact study and certified by the Office of Personnel Management to ensure it improves mission performance and reduces agency costs.

The Hearing Protection Act aims to remove silencers from the purview of the National Firearms Act (NFA) by treating them similarly to standard firearms under federal tax law. This legislation preempts certain state and local taxes and registration requirements related to silencers involved in interstate commerce. Furthermore, the bill mandates the destruction of existing federal silencer registration records and updates federal marking requirements for manufacturers.

The "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025" amends Title IX to prohibit schools receiving federal funds from allowing males to participate in female athletic programs. Sex is defined as based on reproductive biology and genetics at birth. The bill allows males to train with female teams if it doesn't deprive females of opportunities. It also requires a study on the benefits lost to women when males participate in female sports.

This bill expresses support for the Geneva Consensus Declaration, which promotes women's health, strengthens the family, and upholds national sovereignty in healthcare. It affirms the principles of the declaration, including the value of life and the family's role in society and seeks to ensure that U.S. policy aligns with these values by not funding abortions or coercive family planning in foreign countries. The bill also encourages other countries to uphold these principles.

The REMAIN in Mexico Act of 2025 mandates that the Secretary of Homeland Security reinstate the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP). This legislation requires that asylum seekers be returned to Mexico to await their U.S. immigration proceedings, effectively codifying the 2019 policy guidance into law.

The Defund Planned Parenthood Act of 2025 imposes a one-year moratorium on federal funding for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, its affiliates, and its clinics unless they certify that they will not perform abortions. The bill redirects these funds to community health centers to ensure continued access to women’s health services. It includes specific exceptions for cases of rape, incest, or life-threatening medical conditions.

The FIND Act prohibits federal agencies from contracting with entities that discriminate against the firearm and ammunition industry. It requires federal contractors to certify they do not discriminate against firearm entities and prohibits them from awarding subcontracts to entities that do not provide a similar certification. Violations of these clauses will result in contract termination. The act defines "discriminate" as making judgments or refusing/limiting services based on biased criteria, rather than case-by-case evaluations, empirical data, financial risk, or legal non-compliance.
