Rep. Harold Rogers

This resolution expresses support for police officers and other law enforcement personnel.

The resolution expresses condolences and appreciation to the loved ones of each law enforcement officer who has made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to share a veteran's history of opioid prescriptions with their community healthcare providers. The rule applies to veterans receiving care outside the VA system and mandates that this prescription data be sent to both the specific non-VA doctors treating them and any third-party administrators managing their care. By updating existing regulations, the legislation aims to improve coordination between VA medical records and private healthcare providers to ensure comprehensive treatment information is available.

Maddy summaryThis resolution formally condemns the attempted assassination of President Donald J. Trump on April 25, 2026, as well as previous attempts in 2024, and recognizes the critical role of the Department of Homeland Security. The bill expresses gratitude to law enforcement officers who responded to the attack and affirms the Secret Service's responsibility for protecting the President. Additionally, it calls on Americans to unite against political violence and condemns those who incite attacks against public officials.

Maddy summaryThis bill would expand Mammoth Cave National Park by adding approximately 551 acres of land in Edmonson and Barren Counties, Kentucky, to the park's existing boundaries. The legislation modifies existing law to allow the Secretary of the Interior to acquire this specific parcel of land, as shown on a map dated May 2025. The acquisition is subject to a financial threshold adjusted for inflation, referenced in the updated law. This change directly affects the park's management and the landowners whose property would be added to the protected area.

Governing Unaccredited Representatives Defrauding VA Benefits Act or the GUARD VA Benefits Act This bill imposes fines on individuals for soliciting, contracting for, charging, or receiving any unauthorized fee or compensation with respect to the preparation, presentation, or prosecution of any claim for Department of Veterans Affairs benefits. The attempted commission of such offenses is also punishable by fine.

Enhanced Iran Sanctions Act of 2025 This bill imposes sanctions on certain foreign persons (individuals and entities) that are involved in Iran's petroleum sector as well as certain associated persons. The bill also requires or authorizes actions to facilitate the enforcement of sanctions on Iran. Specifically, the bill requires the President to impose visa- and property-blocking sanctions on any foreign person that, after the bill's enactment, knowingly engages in any transaction related to the processing, export, or sale of oil, condensates, gas, liquefied natural gas, or other petrochemical products in whole or in part from Iran. The President must also impose sanctions on certain foreign persons associated with a sanctioned individual or entity. For example, the President must sanction the subsidiaries and corporate officers of a sanctioned business. The bill provides certain exceptions to these sanctions, including specifying that sanctions do not apply to the importation of goods or to conducting or facilitating transactions for humanitarian assistance. The Department of State must establish an interagency working group that shall seek to establish a multilateral contact group to coordinate international efforts to enforce sanctions on Iran. The bill expands the State Department rewards program to authorize a reward payment to any individual who furnishes information leading to the identification of a person (1) subject to sanctions under this bill, or (2) that has attempted or is attempting to evade sanctions under this bill.

Maddy summaryThis bill, known as the No Tax on Drill Pay Act, would exclude certain military compensation from federal income tax. It directly affects members of the U.S. military who receive pay for inactive-duty training, which includes weekend drills and other training activities outside of regular duty. The legislation amends the Internal Revenue Code to add inactive-duty training compensation to the list of qualified military benefits that are not subject to taxation. This change applies to any compensation received after the bill becomes law, meaning it would affect future training pay rather than past earnings.

Maddy summaryThe RESCUE Act of 2025 amends federal permitting rules to streamline approvals for projects extracting minerals or carbon from specific waste sources. It directly affects companies and projects working with acid mine drainage, coal waste, mine tailings, or coal byproducts to recover rare earth elements, minerals under the 1872 Mining Law, or microfine carbon. The key provision adds these activities to the existing FAST Act permit process, removing barriers for processing materials from mining waste streams. This change aims to expedite development of domestic rare earth and carbon resources without altering environmental standards. The bill focuses on clarifying permit eligibility rather than creating new regulations.

Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes the U.S. Mint to produce two types of commemorative $2.50 coins for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence: a circulating coin for everyday use and a numismatic (collector) coin. Both would feature designs based on the 1926 Sesquicentennial coin - showing allegorical liberty holding the Declaration on one side and Independence Hall on the other - with "1776-2026" inscriptions. The bill requires the Mint to issue these coins by July 4, 2026, if technically and economically feasible, but does not mandate their production or affect any specific groups beyond the public who may purchase them.

Maddy summaryHR 7391, the Community Health Center Drug Pricing Protection Act, requires that Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) pay the discounted 340B ceiling price for covered drugs **at the time of purchase**, not later through rebates or adjustments. This directly affects FQHCs, which rely on 340B discounts to provide affordable care to low-income patients. The bill amends the Public Health Service Act to prohibit manufacturers from entering agreements where FQHCs initially pay more than the ceiling price, with later reimbursement. It takes effect immediately upon enactment for all new drug purchases and applies to existing agreements starting then.
