Legislative Activity

The Transnational Criminal Organization Illicit Spotter Prevention and Elimination Act establishes new federal criminal penalties for individuals who assist in border-related crimes by monitoring law enforcement activities or damaging border security infrastructure. Additionally, the bill strengthens sentencing for alien smuggling by classifying it as a predicate offense for mandatory firearm-related penalties.

The Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2025 establishes a national standard allowing individuals to carry concealed handguns across state lines, provided they are legally authorized to carry in their home state. Under this act, visitors must adhere to the host state’s operational laws regarding where and how firearms may be carried. The legislation preserves each state's authority to regulate its own internal permit-issuing processes while ensuring nationwide recognition of valid carry rights.

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to limit the terms of members of Congress. Representatives would be limited to three terms, while Senators would be limited to two terms. Terms served before the amendment's ratification would not count towards these limits. The amendment must be ratified by three-fourths of the states within seven years to become valid.
