The Protecting Girls with Turner Syndrome Act of 2026 prohibits abortions sought solely because an unborn child has or may have Turner syndrome, creating new federal crimes and civil causes of action.

The Act allows specific family members and the Attorney General to file lawsuits seeking damages against those who violate these prohibitions.

The American Family Housing Act aims to increase housing availability by prohibiting large investment companies, defined as those with over \$100 billion in assets, from purchasing single-family residences.

Additionally, the bill adds a State Insurance Commissioner as a voting member to the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC).

The SAFE KIDS Act addresses national security concerns by invalidating surrogacy agreements between U.S. surrogates and prospective parents from designated "foreign entities of concern."

The Reporting Accountability and Abuse Prevention Act of 2026 mandates that all recipients of federal Title X family planning funds must strictly comply with state and local laws regarding the reporting of various forms of abuse, including child abuse and sexual assault.

Failure to adhere to these requirements will result in penalties, including the repayment of federal funds and a multi-year ban on receiving future Title X assistance for repeat violations.

This act requires the President to certify that proposed offshore wind projects in the North Atlantic and Mid-Atlantic will not interfere with military readiness, radar, or sonar systems.

Furthermore, the reissuance of this rule is explicitly barred from judicial review.

The Protect Children’s Innocence Act establishes federal criminal penalties for performing genital or bodily mutilation or chemical castration on individuals under 18 years old.

This bill, the Miracle on Ice Congressional Gold Medal Act, officially authorizes Congress to award Congressional Gold Medals to the 1980 U.S. Men's Olympic Ice Hockey Team for their historic "Miracle on Ice" victory.

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 legislation creates severe criminal penalties, including up to 25 years in prison, for those who violate this prohibition or attempt to do so. Furthermore, it grants victims the right to file a civil lawsuit to recover damages for physical and psychological injuries resulting from forced abortions.

This bill, the D.C. Shield Law Repeal Act, seeks to repeal the Human Rights Sanctuary Amendment Act of 2022. By doing so, it will restore the laws and regulations that were in effect prior to the 2022 Act.

The Rx ACCESS Act aims to improve prescription access, fairness, and transparency within the TRICARE pharmacy benefits program.

This bill, the "No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act of 2025," makes any alien who participated in or supported the Hamas attacks against Israel on or after October 7, 2023, inadmissible to the United States. This legislation bars such individuals from receiving any form of U.S. immigration relief, including asylum or withholding of removal. Furthermore, it establishes grounds for their deportation and requires an annual report to Congress on enforcement actions taken under this new law.

The Fair Allocation of Interstate Rates Act prevents transmission providers from passing the costs of certain interstate transmission projects onto consumers in states that did not mandate the project. Specifically, costs for facilities built to implement one state's policy cannot be allocated to out-of-state consumers unless that state expressly consents. This legislation establishes a presumption that only the residents of the implementing state benefit from and should bear the costs of such facilities.

The Charlie Kirk Congressional Gold Medal Act authorizes the posthumous award of the Congressional Gold Medal to Charles "Charlie" Kirk in recognition of his life, service, and dedication to the United States. The bill honors his legacy as the founder of Turning Point USA and his commitment to promoting traditional American values, faith, and civil discourse.

This Act prohibits Medicare-approved medical residency programs from requiring participation in abortion-related training. Programs that offer abortion training must ensure it is strictly voluntary, allowing residents to opt-in without facing discrimination. This ensures medical residents are not compelled to participate in abortion procedures, assistance, or referrals against their conscience.

The Medical Professional Access Act creates a new federal law allowing licensed health care professionals to provide services across state lines when working under a federal contract during a declared emergency.
