Rep. Carol D. Miller

Maddy summaryThis bill redesignates the existing National Parks and Public Land Legacy Restoration Fund as the America's Legacy Restoration Fund to address deferred maintenance on federal lands. It directs revenue from recreation fees and a portion of energy development income into the fund, which must be used primarily for repairing critical infrastructure like roads, trails, and buildings managed by agencies such as the National Park Service and the Forest Service. The legislation establishes strict rules requiring that most funds go toward non-transportation projects, mandates transparency through public dashboards tracking project status, and sets aside a small percentage for matching private donations. Additionally, the bill increases entrance fees for foreign visitors to ensure they contribute to the fund, while prohibiting the use of these specific funds for land acquisition or employee bonuses.

Repealing Big Brother Overreach Act This bill repeals the Corporate Transparency Act. The act requires existing companies and newly created companies to report beneficial ownership information to the Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network for purposes of addressing the financing of terrorism and money laundering.

Maddy summaryThe PKD Cures Act directs the National Institutes of Health to expand and prioritize research into polycystic kidney disease, a common genetic condition that causes kidney failure in hundreds of thousands of Americans. To achieve this, the bill requires the NIH to intensify studies on the disease's genetic mechanisms, develop new treatments, and create a comprehensive research roadmap involving experts and patient advocates. This roadmap must outline strategies for collaboration, set timelines for innovation, and propose ways to integrate new technologies like artificial medicine into care. Additionally, the legislation mandates that the NIH establish a specialized working group to identify research gaps and submit a detailed report to Congress within 24 months.

Maddy summaryThis bill aims to improve the integrity of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program by tightening rules on how federal funds are used and reported. It requires states to apply existing federal payment integrity standards to their programs and mandates a report outlining a plan to reduce improper payments within a decade. Additionally, the legislation restricts grants to families with income below twice the poverty line and sets strict deadlines for states to spend their allocated funds, allowing only a limited reserve for future use. The bill also prohibits states from using federal money to replace their own spending and requires official certification that funds will supplement, not supplant, existing state resources. These changes are scheduled to take effect on October 1, 2027.

Maddy summaryH.Res. 1320 is a non-binding resolution that calls on all Americans to honor military personnel who died while serving in the pursuit of freedom and peace on Memorial Day 2026. The bill does not create new laws or change any policies; instead, it serves as a formal expression of gratitude and remembrance from the House of Representatives. Because it is a commemorative resolution rather than a procedural or funding measure, it has no direct legal effect on individuals or government operations.

Maddy summaryThe Rural Hospital Revitalization Act of 2026 provides zero-interest loans to specific rural hospitals for building new facilities or renovating existing ones. To qualify, a hospital must be located in a county with fewer than 20,000 people, be at least 35 miles from the nearest hospital, have operated for at least 30 years, and demonstrate financial stability. The loans are initially interest-free for five years and can be refinanced later at standard rates if the hospital's financial situation improves, or renewed once under strict conditions if the hospital struggles financially. Additionally, receiving hospitals become eligible for technical assistance grants designed to help improve their operations and financial health.

Maddy summaryThe Semiconductor Superiority Act expands the advanced manufacturing investment credit to include semiconductor facilities located in outer space, specifically low-Earth orbit. This provision allows companies to claim tax credits for equipment used in space-based manufacturing, even if some components are not physically located in orbit or are used for transporting crew and supplies. The bill also clarifies that flight control, crew habitation, and repair activities in space count as manufacturing functions for the purpose of this credit. Additionally, the law excludes rockets and launch vehicles from qualifying as eligible property under this new rule. These changes apply only to facilities and equipment placed in service after the act is enacted.

Maddy summaryThis bill, known as the Improving Home Dialysis Act of 2026, expands Medicare coverage to include two new types of support services for patients performing dialysis at home. Starting in 2028, it will cover respite care provided by trained medical staff when a patient is temporarily unable to manage their own dialysis, as well as mental health services specifically for kidney disease during the first 60 days of home treatment. The legislation also adjusts Medicare payments to cover these services, setting specific limits on the number of sessions allowed per year and ensuring the costs are not offset by reducing payments elsewhere. These changes directly affect Medicare beneficiaries who use home dialysis and the healthcare providers who deliver these specialized services.

Maddy summaryThis bill, the Provider Reimbursement Stability Act of 2026, aims to create more predictable payment adjustments for physicians and other healthcare providers under the Medicare program. It directly affects medical practices and providers who receive reimbursement for services through the physician fee schedule. The legislation increases a threshold for certain budget neutrality calculations from $20 million to $54.3 million in 2027, with automatic increases every five years thereafter. It also requires the government to correct payment estimates when actual service usage differs significantly from projections, mandates regular updates to cost calculations for practice expenses, and limits how much Medicare payment rates can change from year to year to a maximum of 2.5 percent.

Maddy summaryThis bill would add pharmacist services to Medicare Part B coverage for beneficiaries, specifically covering pharmacist-led testing and treatment for illnesses like flu, COVID-19, or strep throat during public health emergencies. It defines covered services as those performed under state law, often requiring collaboration with a physician, and sets payment at 80% of the lesser of the actual charge or 85% of physician payment rates. Pharmacists would be prohibited from balance billing for these services, ensuring Medicare beneficiaries pay only their standard copayment. The changes would take effect January 1, 2026.
