S 4328: FLEX Act

The FLEX Act amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to increase federal funding and flexibility for high-quality charter schools. It requires that at least 15 percent of Title IV funds go to charter schools, raising the previous requirement of 12.5 percent, and expands allowable uses of these funds to include new academic programs, personalized learning, and facility improvements. The bill also introduces advance payment options for grant recipients to help with planning and program design, while allowing states to use existing charter authorization applications to streamline the grant process. Additionally, the legislation directs the Secretary of Education to consult with charter school operators before issuing new rules and limits the number of non-essential regulations imposed on these schools.

It will also develop and distribute training materials to school personnel aimed at reducing bias, enhancing cultural competency, and improving responses to student behavior.

HR 8342: Poll Worker Tax Cut Act

The Poll Worker Tax Cut Act (H.R. 8342) proposes to reduce the federal income tax burden for individuals who serve as temporary poll workers during elections. It amends the Internal Revenue Code to exclude compensation received by poll workers from their gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, this exclusion would not apply to employment taxes, meaning poll worker compensation would still be subject to taxes like Social Security and Medicare. These changes would take effect for compensation received after December 31, 2025.

HR 8341: DEPORT Act of 2026

The DEPORT Act of 2026 proposes changes to U.S. immigration law regarding terrorism-related offenses. It would require all naturalization applicants to attest under oath that they have not committed, have charges pending for, or intend to commit specific terrorism-related crimes. The bill also establishes new procedures for denaturalizing U.S. citizens, allowing convictions or credible evidence of these offenses to be used as grounds for revoking citizenship, with certain presumptions of illegal procurement. Furthermore, it would make individuals convicted of such offenses inadmissible to the U.S., deportable if denaturalized, ineligible for most immigration benefits, and permanently barred from future admission. These provisions directly affect naturalization applicants, naturalized citizens, and aliens seeking admission or other immigration benefits.

HR 8331: Maverick Act

The Maverick Act authorizes the Secretary of the Navy to transfer three F-14D Tomcat aircraft to the U.S. Space and Rocket Center Commission in Huntsville, Alabama, without charge to the Commission. The Commission would be responsible for all costs associated with the aircraft, including conveyance, operation, and maintenance. The bill requires the aircraft to be demilitarized and used exclusively for public display, airshows, or commemorative events to preserve naval aviation heritage. The Commission must also comply with all Federal Aviation Administration regulations, and if these conditions are violated, ownership of the aircraft would revert to the United States.

HR 8330: Stop Climate Shakedowns Act of 2026

The Stop Climate Shakedowns Act of 2026 prohibits state and local governments from suing energy companies for damages related to climate change or greenhouse gas emissions. This bill declares that regulating emissions is exclusively a federal responsibility and voids any state laws that hold energy businesses liable for alleged climate harms. Consequently, all pending lawsuits of this nature against energy producers must be dismissed immediately, preventing states from imposing retroactive penalties for past lawful operations. The legislation directly affects companies involved in the production, refinement, and sale of oil, gas, and coal by shielding them from civil liability in both state and federal courts.

HR 8324: Great American Healthcare Plan

The Great American Healthcare Plan is a comprehensive bill that modifies tax rules for Health Savings Accounts, expands access to health insurance through new marketplace pools, and strengthens price transparency for hospitals and medical providers. It allows individuals to use HSAs for wellness expenses like healthy food and gym memberships, lets parents and children access each other's HSA funds, and requires hospitals to publicly list their standard charges and negotiated rates. The legislation also mandates that administrative service providers share detailed pricing data with health plans and creates a mechanism for pharmacists and nurses to dispense certain low-risk prescription drugs under expanded access.

HRES 1156: Expressing support for tax policies that support working families.

This resolution expresses support for the Working Families Tax Cuts, a law already enacted in July 2025 that provides various tax benefits to American taxpayers. The bill directly affects individuals and families by recognizing specific provisions that reduce tax liability, including expanded child tax credits, increased standard deductions, and tax relief for tipped workers and overtime pay. Key provisions include making a four-person household earning under $73,000 generally face zero federal income tax, increasing the child tax credit to $2,200 per child, and allowing 529 accounts to cover K-12 and trade school expenses. The resolution also acknowledges tax relief for seniors, auto loan interest deductions for American-made vehicles, and expanded health savings account access. This is a procedural measure that formally acknowledges existing tax policies rather than creating new legislation.

This concurrent resolution (HCONRES 40) directs the President to remove U.S. military forces from hostilities with Iran, as required by the War Powers Resolution. It applies directly to U.S. Armed Forces deployed in conflict with Iran, except for forces needed to defend the U.S. or allies from imminent attack. The bill mandates removal unless the President complies with War Powers Resolution reporting requirements for self-defense actions, without needing new congressional authorization. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new law but compels executive action under existing legal framework.

HR 6001: Veterans with ALS Reporting Act

HR 6001, the Veterans with ALS Reporting Act, requires the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to report to Congress on ALS incidence and care for veterans. Within one year of enactment, the VA must submit a report assessing ALS rates among veterans, describing current support services, identifying gaps in care, and proposing strategies for risk reduction and clinical trial access. The VA must also track ALS prevalence using the CDC’s registry and submit updated reports every three years. This bill focuses on gathering data to inform future policy, directly affecting veterans with ALS and VA/CDC operations.

S 4296: IGO Anti-Boycott Act

This bill, the IGO Anti-Boycott Act, amends the existing Anti-Boycott Act of 2018 to broaden its application. It expands the scope of the original act, which prohibits U.S. persons from complying with certain boycotts fostered by foreign countries, to now also include international governmental organizations (IGOs). This means the anti-boycott provisions will apply to boycotts fostered by IGOs in the same manner they apply to those from foreign countries. Additionally, the bill mandates the President to submit an annual report to Congress and the public, listing foreign countries and IGOs that foster or impose boycotts and describing those boycotts.
