HR 5632: Long-Term Care Pharmacy Definition Act of 2021

Long-Term Care Pharmacy Definition Act of 2021 This bill establishes a statutory definition for long-term care pharmacy under the Medicare prescription drug benefit. Currently, there is no statutory definition. Regulations from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) define a long-term care pharmacy as a pharmacy that is owned by or under contract with a long-term care facility to provide prescription drugs to the facility's residents. Additional requirements are set out in CMS guidance relating to the Medicare prescription drug benefit; pharmacies are also subject to regulations and guidance from other agencies (e.g., packaging requirements from the Food and Drug Administration).      The bill defines a long-term care pharmacy as a state-licensed pharmacy that is able to provide enhanced pharmacy and clinical services to individuals who have certain comorbid and medically complex chronic conditions and who reside in skilled nursing facilities, nursing facilities, or any other applicable setting (as determined by the CMS). The term enhanced pharmacy and clinical services includes medication dispensed in special packaging, drug utilization review, and 24-7 availability of medication delivery and on-call pharmacists.

HR 2827: Captain James C. Edge Gold Star Spouse Equity Act

Captain James C. Edge Gold Star Spouse Equity Act This bill addresses restrictions on benefits for surviving spouses of service members. Specifically, the bill prohibits the termination of the payment of an annuity under the Survivor Benefit Plan for certain surviving spouses of service members who died while on active duty solely because the surviving spouse remarries. The Department of Defense must resume payment of an annuity to surviving spouses who remarried before the age of 55 and before the enactment of this bill. The remarriage of a surviving spouse of a veteran does not bar the provision of dependency and indemnity compensation, regardless of their age when they remarried. The Department of Veterans Affairs must resume payment of dependency and indemnity compensation to surviving spouses who remarried before the age of 57 prior to the enactment of this bill.

HRES 332: Recognizing the duty of the Federal Government to create a Green New Deal.

HRES 272: Calling for the designation of Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.

HRES 272 is a symbolic House resolution introduced in March 2021 by several Republican representatives. It calls on the Department of Homeland Security to formally designate Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization under existing legal definitions (18 U.S.C. § 2331), citing alleged violent actions including attacks on federal officers, property damage during protests, and threats against law enforcement. The resolution specifically references incidents in Portland, Oregon, and Tacoma, Washington, as justification for its position. It does not create new law but urges federal action against domestic terrorism, condemning violent tactics while emphasizing peaceful First Amendment expression.
