HR 9027: Military and Veterans Fuel Discount Act of 2026

This bill authorizes the Department of Defense to offer fuel discounts to eligible military members and veterans at exchange stores, provided the fuel is dispensed directly into their personal vehicles. The program guarantees a minimum discount equal to the federal tax rate on gasoline or diesel, with a floor of 18.4 cents per gallon for gasoline and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel, while allowing for additional reductions to cover state and local taxes. To prevent fraud and ensure the fuel is used only for personal transportation, the Secretary of Defense must update regulations to stop resale or commercial use of the discounted fuel. The authority to run this program will end on September 30, 2029, and the Department must submit annual reports to Congress detailing the program's usage, costs, and any issues encountered.

HR 9016: Email Privacy Act

This bill, known as the Email Privacy Act, amends existing federal laws to clarify how information about stored emails can be shared and how government agencies can access email content. It requires internet service providers to use the term "disclose" rather than "divulge" when sharing subscriber data and expands the definition of who can receive this information to include agents of the customer. The legislation also changes rules for government warrants by allowing providers to notify customers about the receipt of a warrant unless the government requests otherwise, while maintaining exceptions for communications made public by the sender. Additionally, the bill removes a specific time limit that previously required a warrant for emails stored for less than 180 days, ensuring consistent warrant requirements for all stored communications.

HR 9014: Affordable Housing and Area Median Income Fairness Act of 2026

This bill authorizes $5 billion annually for each fiscal year from 2026 to 2035 to fund affordable housing programs, but restricts these funds to areas designated by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as having high housing costs. It also requires the Secretary to conduct a comprehensive study on alternative ways to calculate income limits for urban housing assistance, with a final report due two years after enactment.

HR 9012: Affordable Housing Credit Carryback Act

The Affordable Housing Credit Carryback Act allows developers of low-income housing projects to apply their tax credits to tax years up to five years prior to the current year. This change directly affects developers who may have incurred losses in earlier years and are unable to fully utilize the tax benefits generated by their projects. By amending the Internal Revenue Code, the bill enables these developers to carry back the low-income housing tax credit to offset taxes owed in those past years. This provision aims to improve the immediate financial viability of affordable housing developments without altering the total amount of tax credit available.

S 4641: Improving Access to Medicare Coverage Act of 2026

The Improving Access to Medicare Coverage Act of 2026 changes how Medicare counts time spent in hospital observation toward the three-day waiting period required for skilled nursing facility coverage. Starting in 2026, individuals receiving outpatient observation services will be treated as inpatients for this purpose, and the date they stop receiving such care will count as their official hospital discharge date. This provision applies to observation periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with limited exceptions for appeals made within 90 days of the bill's enactment. The law also allows the Department of Health and Human Services to implement these changes through interim regulations before the official start date.
