Legislative Activity

The "Unborn Child Support Act" allows mothers to seek child support payments starting from the first month of conception. These payments can be collected retroactively and the amount will be determined by a court, considering the best interests of both the mother and child. The mother must consent to paternity establishment, and no measures can risk harm to the unborn child. This act defines "unborn child" as any human being at any stage of development carried in the womb.

The "Criminal Alien Gang Member Removal Act" amends immigration law to define "criminal gang" and broadens the criteria for inadmissibility and deportability to include alien gang members. It allows the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate groups as criminal gangs, subject to Congressional notification and judicial review, and mandates the detention of inadmissible or deportable gang members. The Act also restricts asylum, temporary protected status, special immigrant juvenile visas, and parole eligibility for gang members, and applies retroactively.

The "Protecting Women’s Private Spaces Act" restricts access to single-sex facilities on federal property to individuals whose biological sex corresponds to the facility's designation. Biological sex is defined as the biological determination of male or female, based on reproductive systems. Exceptions are provided for emergency medical personnel and law enforcement officers in specific situations. "Single-sex facilities" are defined as restrooms, locker rooms, and changing rooms.

This bill stops the distribution of China Daily, a Chinese Communist Party propaganda outlet, in House buildings. It prevents the Chief Administrative Officer from distributing these publications or using internal mail for their delivery, aiming to protect the House from foreign influence.

The bill defines a CCP-controlled publication as one registered under the Foreign Agents Registration Act and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.

The "Protection of Women in Olympic and Amateur Sports Act" amends Title 36 of the United States Code to define "female" and "male" based on reproductive systems.

The "Second Chance for Moms Act of 2025" requires a warning label on mifepristone indicating its effects may be reversed with progesterone, potentially increasing fetal survival, and provides a hotline number for further information.

The "Pregnancy Is Not an Illness Act of 2025" prevents the Department of Health and Human Services from classifying pregnancy as an illness when approving abortion drugs or setting risk management strategies for these drugs. It invalidates any prior abortion drug approvals that were based on classifying pregnancy as an illness, including the approval of mifepristone.

The "Dignity for Aborted Children Act" requires abortion providers to offer patients the option to take possession of fetal remains for burial or cremation, or to have the provider arrange for interment or cremation. Abortion providers must obtain consent, maintain records, and submit annual reports on abortion procedures and fetal tissue disposal. Non-compliance can result in significant penalties, but patients are protected from prosecution.

The "PROTECTS Act of 2025" prohibits federal funds from being used for gender transition procedures for individuals under 18, including surgeries and hormone therapies, with exceptions for certain medical conditions and genetic disorders. The bill defines "sex" as biologically determined male or female based on reproductive systems.

The "Parental Notification and Intervention Act of 2025" requires parental notification before an abortion can be performed on an unemancipated minor, with exceptions for medical emergencies or court waivers.

The act would take effect immediately upon becoming law.

The "Safeguarding American Workers Benefits Act" amends the Internal Revenue Code to modify Social Security number (SSN) requirements for the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit.

The "Life at Conception Act" declares that the right to life, as guaranteed by the Constitution, is vested in each human being, both born and preborn, from fertilization onward. This act defines "human being" as every member of the species homo sapiens at all stages of life. Notably, the act specifies that no woman shall be prosecuted 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.

This bill expresses support for designating January 26 - February 1, 2025, as "National School Choice Week" to recognize the importance of diverse K-12 education options and the role of parents in choosing the best learning environment for their children.

This bill would rename the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport." It would apply to all federal laws, regulations, maps, documents and records.

The Federal Insurance Office Elimination Act eliminates the Federal Insurance Office and the position of its Director within the Department of the Treasury. It transfers certain responsibilities and authorities previously held by the office to other entities, such as the Secretary of the Treasury and the Board of Governors. The act also makes related amendments to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act to reflect these changes. This bill does not repeal or limit the Secretary of the Treasury's authority over insurance-related matters.

The "Main Street Tax Certainty Act" amends the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to permanently extend the deduction for qualified business income.

The "Protect Funding for Women's Health Care Act" redirects federal funds away from Planned Parenthood to other eligible entities that provide women's health services such as well-child care, prenatal and postpartum care, immunizations, and cancer screenings, particularly in underserved areas. This ensures continued access to comprehensive healthcare for women without reducing overall federal funding for women's health initiatives. The bill codifies that Planned Parenthood, including its affiliates, subsidiaries, or clinics, will not be eligible for these federal funds. It does not alter existing abortion-related funding restrictions.
