Rep. Lauren Boebert

Maddy summaryHR 589, the FACE Act Repeal Act of 2025, would repeal a federal law (Section 248 of Title 18, U.S. Code) that prohibited obstructing access to reproductive health care facilities through physical means, intimidation, or violence. This repeal would eliminate the federal criminal penalty for such conduct, meaning federal prosecutors could no longer charge individuals under this specific law. The bill applies to all pending or future federal prosecutions related to these actions. It does not affect state laws that may still regulate access to reproductive health care facilities.

Maddy summaryThis resolution (HRES 488) is a symbolic House of Representatives statement condemning an antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, on June 1, 2025. It specifically denounces Mohammed Sabry Soliman for attacking peaceful demonstrators supporting Hamas hostage release with Molotov cocktails, injuring 14 people (including a Holocaust survivor). The resolution affirms the importance of law enforcement cooperation to prevent such attacks but does not create new laws or policies. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses condemnation and gratitude to law enforcement without altering immigration or security procedures.

Maddy summaryHRES 481 is a symbolic resolution condemning recent antisemitic attacks in the U.S., specifically referencing the June 1, 2025, Boulder, Colorado, assault on a Jewish community gathering and other incidents like the May 2025 Washington, D.C., embassy shooting. It formally recognizes a pattern of violence targeting Jewish individuals and institutions, including attacks during religious events. The resolution calls on law enforcement to thoroughly investigate and prosecute such incidents and urges elected officials to publicly oppose antisemitism and politically motivated violence. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws or allocate funding but serves to affirm congressional stance against antisemitism.

Maddy summaryHRES 485 is a symbolic House resolution denouncing an antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, on June 1, 2025. It condemns the attacker, Mohammed Sabry Soliman, who injured 14 people - including a Holocaust survivor - while shouting antisemitic slogans during a pro-hostage-release demonstration. The resolution affirms the importance of law enforcement cooperation between state and federal agencies to prevent such attacks but contains no new policy provisions or funding. As a non-binding statement, it directly affects no individuals or policies, serving only as a formal expression of congressional disapproval.

Maddy summaryHR 3791, the EMS Counts Act, requires the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) to revise its job classification system to properly count dual-role firefighter/EMTs and firefighter/paramedics as EMS personnel. This directly affects how national workforce data on emergency medical services is collected, correcting a current undercount that excludes these workers. The bill mandates the Secretary of Labor to add specific occupational categories ("Firefighter/EMTs" and "Firefighter/Paramedics") to the BLS system within 120 days of enactment. A report detailing this change and past efforts to improve EMS counting must be submitted to Congress within 270 days. The law aims to ensure accurate data for federal agencies to better address EMS workforce needs during emergencies.

Maddy summaryHRES 478 is a symbolic House resolution designating the month of July as "American Patriotism Month." It does not create new laws or policies but encourages voluntary observance through ceremonies, educational activities, and community events celebrating American history and values. The resolution highlights historical events like Independence Day, Pearl Harbor, and 9/11 as examples of patriotism, while urging schools, organizations, and communities to participate in commemorations. It has no binding effect on citizens or government operations and merely requests the President issue an annual proclamation. This is purely a ceremonial recognition with no direct impact on individuals or policy implementation.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits businesses from deducting wages paid to undocumented workers when calculating taxable income. It creates a safe harbor for employers using the E-Verify program: if they confirm employment eligibility through E-Verify, they may still deduct those wages. The law directly affects employers who hire undocumented workers, removing a tax benefit for such payments. It also establishes new data-sharing between the IRS, DHS, and Social Security to enforce compliance, with a 6-year audit window for improper deductions.

Maddy summaryThis bill, titled "Make DOGE Permanent Act," amends the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 to provide Members of Congress (Senators and Representatives) with real-time access to federal award data. It requires the Office of Management and Budget to create a secure, separate online link for Congress to view updated information on federal spending, including payments to individual recipients and federal employees. The website must update in real time for this access, and the link must be established within six months of enactment. The bill directly affects congressional oversight capabilities but does not change public access to the same data.

Maddy summaryHR 3724, the "No Amnesty for Hamas Sympathizers Act," blocks immigration protections for Palestinians from specific territories. It nullifies a February 2024 policy allowing deferred enforced departure and prohibits Temporary Protected Status, asylum, refugee status, and parole for individuals who habitually resided in Palestinian-administered territories (Judea/Samaria or Gaza) or hold Palestinian Authority passports. The bill adds these individuals to the list of inadmissible and deportable persons under immigration law, making them ineligible for most forms of U.S. immigration relief. These provisions directly affect Palestinians from those regions who might otherwise qualify for immigration benefits. The bill focuses on geographic and document-based restrictions, not political affiliation.

Maddy summaryThis bill would reform immigration parole by requiring the Secretary of Homeland Security to grant temporary entry only on a case-by-case basis for urgent humanitarian needs or significant public benefit, reversing what the bill describes as systemic overuse. It imposes a strict annual cap of 3,000 paroles starting in fiscal year 2029, restricts parole for nationals of designated "countries of concern" without a State Department waiver, and allows states to sue if they claim financial harm exceeding $100 from parole decisions. The bill directly affects immigrants seeking temporary entry and DHS officials administering the program. Key mechanisms include the new cap, country restrictions, and state lawsuit provisions to enforce compliance.
