Maddy summaryThe Temporary Protected Status Review Act restores the ability of courts to review decisions by the Department of Homeland Security to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designations for foreign nationals. Under this bill, the government must publish detailed written findings explaining why a country no longer qualifies for TPS protection, and these decisions would be subject to a legal challenge in federal court. If a TPS designation is terminated, the affected individuals would remain in the United States with their current status and work authorization intact while the legal challenge is pending. Additionally, the legislation requires the government to follow specific administrative procedures, such as considering all available evidence and avoiding bias, before making any termination decisions.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes federal protections and funding to expand access to in vitro fertilization and intrauterine insemination for individuals, military service members, and veterans. It requires most private health plans, Medicaid programs, and Medicare to cover these fertility treatments without imposing higher cost-sharing than other medical services. Additionally, the legislation mandates that the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs provide specific fertility preservation and treatment benefits to uniformed service members and eligible veterans. The bill also includes preemption clauses that override state laws restricting these procedures and prohibits discrimination based on marital status, sex, or sexual orientation in the provision of care.

Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the No AI Data Centers on Federal Lands Act, prohibits the construction and operation of large-scale artificial intelligence data centers on any land owned or managed by the United States government. It requires federal agencies to immediately stop building or running such facilities and mandates the removal of existing structures within 30 days of the law's enactment. The legislation defines these centers as buildings with high power usage or advanced cooling systems used for developing AI models, while also specifying that any cleanup must follow environmental safety standards.

Maddy summaryThe Federal Naming Standards Act prohibits the government from naming or renaming federal buildings, facilities, or programs after elected officials or political appointees while they are in office and for ten years after they leave. This restriction also applies indefinitely to individuals who earn more than $1 million annually from commercial use of their name or likeness, though it does not affect deceased individuals or names already established before the law takes effect. To enforce these rules, agency inspectors general must investigate complaints about violations and report their findings to agency heads and Congress within 90 days. The law allows for the incidental use of names in historical or educational contexts, provided the name is not used as the official title of a federal site or program.

Maddy summaryThe Transportation for Reentry Act requires transit agencies receiving federal funding to offer free public transportation to individuals released from prison after serving at least one year. Under this bill, these agencies must provide the service for one year starting from the person's release date and cover costs related to program setup, staff training, and outreach. To receive federal grants, transit recipients must establish enrollment systems, track usage data, and ensure compliance with the program's duration requirements. The legislation authorizes $40 million annually from 2027 to 2031 to support these efforts and mandates a final report on the program's impact five years after enactment.

This bill designates the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 3255 Northwest 94th Avenue in Coral Springs, Florida, as the "Nancy Metayer Post Office Building".

Maddy summaryThis bill requires pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs) administering prescription drug benefits for federal employee health plans to reimburse pharmacies at specific rates, including the national average drug cost plus a small percentage or $50, whichever is lower. It prohibits PBMs from favoring their own pharmacies, restricting patient choice, or reducing pharmacy payments after claims are processed. The bill establishes $10,000 civil penalties for violations, with debarment from federal health plans after 10 penalties in 10 years. This directly affects PBMs, in-network pharmacies, and federal health benefit plans covering millions of federal employees and their families. The law aims to ensure fair reimbursement practices and maintain pharmacy choice under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program.

Maddy summaryThis concurrent resolution formally recognizes the persistent wage gap between Black women and white, non-Hispanic men in the United States. It highlights data showing that Black women earn significantly less than their male counterparts and reaffirms Congress's support for existing laws that prohibit pay discrimination based on sex or race. The document does not create new laws or change policy but serves as a symbolic statement to raise awareness about the economic disparities faced by Black women.

Maddy summaryThis resolution supports designating July 20, 2026, as "National Moon Landing Day" to honor the historic Apollo 11 mission and the ongoing Artemis program. The bill encourages Americans to celebrate the achievements of NASA astronauts, engineers, and scientists while honoring those who lost their lives during space exploration efforts. It also aims to inspire young people to pursue careers in STEM fields and promote public awareness of the economic and scientific benefits of human spaceflight.
