The Second Chance for Moms Act of 2025 mandates that mifepristone labeling include a warning regarding the potential to counteract the drug's effects with progesterone. Additionally, the bill directs the Department of Health and Human Services to establish a 24/7 hotline to provide support and referrals for individuals seeking abortion pill reversal services.

The Safeguarding American Workers’ Benefits Act updates eligibility requirements for the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Tax Credit. It mandates that taxpayers and qualifying children provide a valid Social Security number—issued to a U.S. citizen or work-authorized noncitizen—before the tax return due date to claim these benefits. These changes are set to take effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.

The Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act imposes sanctions on individuals and their families who assist the International Criminal Court (ICC) in investigating, arresting, detaining, or prosecuting "protected persons," which include U.S. citizens, military personnel, government officials, and citizens/residents of U.S. allies not consenting to the ICC. It requires the President to block the property of those who aid the ICC, deny them entry into the U.S., and rescinds any funds for the ICC. The bill allows for waivers of these sanctions if vital to U.S. national security and termination of sanctions if the ICC ceases action against protected persons.

The Pregnancy Is Not an Illness Act of 2025 prohibits the FDA and the Department of Health and Human Services from classifying pregnancy as an illness when approving or regulating abortion drugs. The bill further mandates the immediate revocation of any existing abortion drug approvals that relied on such a classification, including the current approval of mifepristone.

The Dignity for Aborted Children Act mandates that abortion providers offer patients the choice to either personally arrange for the burial or cremation of fetal remains or release them to the provider for such disposal.

Additionally, it requires providers to submit annual reports to the Department of Health and Human Services regarding abortion procedures and disposal methods.

The 287(g) Program Protection Act mandates that the Department of Homeland Security enter into immigration enforcement agreements with any state or local law enforcement agency that requests one.

Additionally, it establishes uniform training standards and reallocates funding to support these state and local partnerships.

The Securing America’s Land from Foreign Interference Act prohibits members of the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated entities from purchasing public or private real estate within the United States and its territories.

The bill includes specific exceptions for medically necessary treatments related to genetic disorders of sex development or other physical health conditions.

The "Defund the CFPB Act" proposes eliminating all federal funding for the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection. By capping the agency's budget at $0, the bill effectively seeks to terminate the Bureau's financial operations and its ability to function as established under the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010.

The Educational Choice for Children Act of 2025 establishes a federal tax credit for donations to scholarship-granting organizations, which provide financial assistance for K-12 educational expenses. This initiative aims to expand school choice by helping eligible families cover costs such as tuition, tutoring, and educational therapies. The bill also includes robust protections to ensure the autonomy of participating private and religious schools and the freedom of parents to direct their children's education.

The Holocaust Education and Antisemitism Lessons Act directs the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum to conduct a comprehensive study of Holocaust education in public elementary and secondary schools across the United States. This study will evaluate current curriculum standards, teaching methods, and available resources to identify gaps and improve how students learn about the Holocaust and the history of antisemitism. The findings will be compiled into a report submitted to Congress to help strengthen educational efforts in preventing hate and bigotry.

The CBO Show Your Work Act mandates that the Congressional Budget Office publicly release the models, data, and computational details used to estimate the fiscal and economic impacts of legislation. By requiring transparency and replicability, the bill ensures that outside parties can independently verify CBO findings.

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.

Additionally, it explicitly prohibits the prosecution of any woman for the death of her unborn child.

The Teleabortion Prevention Act of 2025 would make it a federal crime for healthcare providers to dispense or prescribe abortion drugs without being physically present for the patient's examination and follow-up care.

The No Abortion Coverage for Medicaid Act prohibits the use of federal Medicaid and CHIP funds for elective abortions, including associated travel and lodging costs.

The bill includes exceptions for cases involving rape, incest, or medical emergencies where the life of the mother is at risk.

The Prohibiting Abortion Industry’s Lucrative Loopholes Act strengthens federal restrictions on the exchange of human fetal tissue by significantly broadening the legal definition of "valuable consideration."
