Legislative Activity

This bill officially designates the United States Postal Service facility located at 521 Thorn Street in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, as the "Mary Elizabeth Bettie Cole Post Office Building." This change ensures all future federal references use the newly established name for the building.

The Federal Building Threat Notification Act mandates the development and dissemination of emergency communication guidance for federal buildings facing life safety events. This guidance will establish best practices for informing tenants and instructing safety procedures during threats. The General Services Administration and Federal Protective Service are responsible for creating and reporting on the implementation of these new protocols.

This bill mandates that the Administrator of General Services submit an annual report to Congress detailing the current state of the Public Building Service's real estate portfolio. The report must provide comprehensive data on leases, owned buildings, financial indicators, and planned property disposals and relocations. This aims to increase transparency regarding the federal government's real estate holdings and management.

The Energy Choice Act prevents state and local governments from enacting bans or restrictions on the type or source of energy services consumers can access. This legislation protects consumer choice across various energy sources, including natural gas, hydrogen, propane, and electricity, provided the energy is sold across state lines. Essentially, it limits local interference with energy delivery options.

The Official Time Reporting Act establishes a new annual reporting requirement for federal agencies regarding the time their employees spend on union business while on the clock. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) must compile and publicly release a detailed report analyzing this "official time" usage, costs, and impact across the government. This legislation mandates transparency by requiring agencies to submit detailed data, including explanations for any increases in time usage, to OPM for inclusion in the public report.

This bill repeals specific requirements for notifying Senate offices when legal processes seek the disclosure of Senate data. Essentially, it removes existing notification mandates related to legal requests for Senate information.

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.

This bill, the "No Tax Exemptions For Terror Act," proposes to revoke the tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code for the Council on American-Islamic Relations and any other organization found to have ties to terrorism or terrorist organizations. This change would apply to all future taxable years.

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 bill repeals the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act of 2013 and significantly restricts the domestic distribution of U.S. government-produced international information materials. It mandates that materials created for foreign audiences must be archived and generally withheld from the U.S. public for a period of 20 years. Furthermore, the legislation explicitly bans the use of appropriated funds by the State Department or USAGM to influence domestic public opinion.

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.

The Protect Consumers from Reallocation Costs Act of 2025 prohibits the EPA from reallocating the renewable fuel volume obligations of small refineries that receive exemption extensions. This ensures that the volume remains tied to the exempt refinery rather than being shifted to other obligated parties. Furthermore, the bill requires the EPA to count the fuel produced by an exempt small refinery when calculating the overall production obligations for its parent company.

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.

This bill prohibits the use of any Federal funds to pay reparations, restitution, or compensation ordered by international bodies or courts for alleged violations of international law. Payments stemming from such international judgments are barred unless explicitly authorized by a subsequent, specific Act of Congress. In essence, it prevents the automatic funding of international legal reparations using federal money.

The Incentivize Savings Act mandates how federal agencies must handle unspent appropriations by dedicating the majority to debt reduction and allowing a portion for employee retention bonuses. This legislation also restricts future budget requests to only account for inflation unless the agency fully spends its prior allocation. Ultimately, the bill aims to encourage fiscal responsibility by linking unspent funds to debt reduction and limiting budget growth.

The Freedom from Automated Speed Enforcement Act of 2025 aims to discourage states from using automated speed enforcement systems, such as speed cameras, by threatening to withhold 10% of their federal highway funds starting in late 2026 if they do not certify their absence. These systems are generally banned unless they are strictly limited to use within active school zones or construction zones. The bill grants the Secretary of Transportation authority to implement necessary regulations to enforce these provisions.

This resolution strongly condemns the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, during his national speaking tour. It honors his life, his founding of Turning Point USA, and his dedication to conservative principles. Ultimately, the document calls for national unity and reaffirms the commitment to protecting the right to peaceful assembly and free expression.

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.

The Mid-Atlantic River Basin Commissions Review Act mandates that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) conduct a comprehensive review of the Susquehanna, Delaware, and Potomac River Basin Commissions. This review will examine their operations, ethics, funding, and potential overlaps with federal responsibilities. Following the GAO's report, each commission must submit annual compliance plans to Congress detailing how they are implementing the suggested improvements.

The Restore Trust in Congress Act establishes strict new rules prohibiting Members of Congress and their immediate families from owning or trading specific financial assets, referred to as "covered investments," while in office. Covered individuals must divest existing prohibited holdings within a set timeframe or face significant financial penalties, including fines and forfeiture of profits. The legislation aims to eliminate conflicts of interest arising from personal financial trading while serving in federal office.
