HRES 1338: Supporting the designation of June as Family Month.

This resolution proposes to officially designate June as "Family Month" to highlight the importance of the traditional nuclear family. It also calls for the House of Representatives to stop recognizing Pride Month, which it argues has replaced the celebration of family values. The bill is sponsored by a group of representatives who believe that strengthening traditional marriage is essential for societal stability and population growth.

S 4673: PATH Act

The PATH Act allows public housing agencies and owners to establish minimum work requirements for residents receiving federal housing assistance, effective January 1, 2027. These requirements can mandate up to 40 hours per week of activities such as employment, job training, or community service, but they must exclude individuals under 18 or over 62, people with disabilities, pregnant women, and parents of young children. Agencies implementing these rules must provide supportive services like childcare and job search assistance, maintain uniform standards for all tenants in a program, and offer exceptions for those facing hardships like temporary relocation or difficulty finding work. If a resident fails to comply with the work requirements, the agency may terminate their housing assistance after following specific procedural rules.

S 4671: Federal Firearms Licensee Protection Act of 2026

The Federal Firearms Licensee Protection Act of 2026 increases penalties for individuals who knowingly violate federal laws regarding the possession of firearms by licensed dealers. Specifically, it raises the maximum prison sentence for such violations to 20 years and mandates a minimum of three years in prison if the offense occurs during a burglary of a licensed business. The law also sets a five-year minimum sentence if the violation happens during a robbery. These changes directly affect federal firearms licensees and anyone attempting to illegally possess firearms from them.

HR 9132: Preventing International Surrogacy Exploitation Act

This bill, known as the Preventing International Surrogacy Exploitation Act, aims to stop foreign nationals from using U.S. surrogate mothers for commercial surrogacy arrangements. It would make any surrogacy contract void and unenforceable if the intended parents are foreign citizens or permanent residents, with a specific exception for married couples where at least one partner is a U.S. citizen or resident. Additionally, the law prohibits surrogacy brokers from facilitating these agreements and imposes criminal penalties, including fines and up to 10 years in prison, for those who knowingly or recklessly assist in such contracts. Children born through these invalid agreements would have their custody determined by the state where the surrogate lives, focusing on the child's best interests rather than the contract. Finally, the bill prevents foreign parents from using their U.S.-born children to gain immigration benefits or rights under U.S. immigration laws.

HR 9131: Protecting Kids from Creeps Act

The Protecting Kids from Creeps Act prohibits surrogacy agencies, their employees, and sex offenders from participating in surrogacy agreements, directly affecting fertility clinics, staff, and individuals required to register as sex offenders. The bill mandates severe criminal penalties, including fines and prison sentences of at least 10 to 20 years, for knowingly or recklessly facilitating such agreements, while also stripping convicted agencies of their tax-exempt status and eligibility for federal grants. Any surrogacy agreement formed in violation of these rules is declared legally void and unenforceable, meaning it cannot be used to establish parental rights. In cases where a child is born from an illegal agreement, custody decisions will be made solely based on the best interests of the child under the laws of the state where the surrogate lives, ignoring any prior contracts. Additionally, the Attorney General can pursue civil penalties equal to the compensation received or offered for prohibited conduct.

HR 9130: BLAST Act

The BLAST Act prohibits former Members of Congress and elected officers from lobbying Congress after leaving office. Under this law, these individuals cannot register as lobbyists or make communications intended to influence legislation on behalf of others. The bill also expands the legal definition of a lobbyist to include former officials who are paid to engage in lobbying activities, even if they do not make direct contacts. These restrictions apply to anyone who leaves their position on or after the date the law is enacted.

HR 8542: Offshore Parity Act of 2026

The Offshore Parity Act of 2026 grants the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama greater control over offshore resources by expanding their jurisdiction to three marine leagues in the Gulf of Mexico. Under this bill, the Secretary of the Interior would delegate authority to these states to manage oil, gas, and other energy activities on the newly included lands, provided the states demonstrate they have the resources and administrative capacity to do so. The legislation also allows these states to set their own rental rates and royalties for new leases while retaining federal oversight for endangered species and national security matters. Additionally, the act extends state management powers to fisheries in the same expanded area, enabling local oversight of fishing resources within these new boundaries.

HR 175: Deport Alien Gang Members Act

This bill creates new grounds for deporting non-citizens who are members of or associated with criminal gangs. It defines a "criminal gang" as a group of five or more people whose primary purpose is committing serious crimes like drug offenses, violence, trafficking, or weapons violations. The Secretary of Homeland Security can designate groups as criminal gangs after consultation with the Attorney General, and these designations make gang members ineligible for asylum, temporary protected status, parole, and other immigration benefits. The bill also establishes procedures for reviewing and revoking these designations, with limited judicial review options.

HR 9110: Promoting Authenticity with Influencer Disclaimers Act

The Promoting Authenticity with Influencer Disclaimers Act requires political committees to clearly label online content they pay for, ensuring viewers know the material was sponsored by a political group. This rule applies to posts on websites, apps, and social media, mandating that the disclaimer be easy to read or hear, while excluding content on a committee's own site or posts by staff whose main job is managing their personal social media. The law takes effect on January 1, 2027, and directs the Federal Election Commission to create specific regulations to enforce these requirements by that date.

HR 9100: Modernizing Agricultural and Manufacturing Bonds Act

This bill expands tax-advantaged financing options for small businesses and farmers by updating the rules for qualified small issue bonds. It allows these bonds to fund the creation of intangible property like software, alongside traditional manufacturing, and raises the borrowing limits for eligible projects from $10 million to $30 million. Additionally, the legislation increases the maximum loan amount for first-time farmers from $450,000 to $1 million and adjusts the calculation for farm size eligibility to use an average rather than a median. These changes are designed to provide more accessible funding for a broader range of agricultural and manufacturing initiatives while including automatic inflation adjustments for future years.

HR 9096: Deport the Terrorists Act of 2026

This bill, titled the Deport the Terrorists Act of 2026, aims to remove from the United States any naturalized citizen convicted of specific terrorism-related crimes. It directly affects individuals who have already become U.S. citizens by automatically revoking their citizenship and declaring their naturalization certificates void upon conviction of offenses such as using weapons of mass destruction or providing material support to terrorists. The law also designates these individuals as deportable aliens and requires the Department of Homeland Security to prioritize their removal from the country. By amending existing immigration laws, the bill ensures that courts have the authority to cancel citizenship immediately following a conviction for these designated offenses.

HR 9083: State Emissions Authority Act of 2026

This bill, known as the State Emissions Authority Act of 2026, modifies the Clean Air Act to reduce federal mandates on vehicle inspection and maintenance programs. It primarily affects state governments by removing requirements for them to maintain specific inspection schedules and by limiting the federal government's ability to credit states for emissions reductions achieved through these programs. Additionally, the legislation adjusts rules regarding how states must report their environmental plans and clarifies compliance standards for federal vehicles and installations. By striking several existing sections of the law, the bill effectively shifts more authority over vehicle inspection policies from the federal level to the states.
