Sen. Cynthia M. Lummis

Chiropractic Medicare Coverage Modernization Act of 2025 This bill expands Medicare coverage of chiropractic services to include all services provided by chiropractors, rather than only subluxation corrections through manual manipulation of the spine.

Maddy summaryThis bill (S 100) repeals the Corporate Transparency Act, which required businesses to disclose beneficial ownership information to the government. It directly affects businesses (especially small entities) that previously had to report who ultimately owns or controls them. The bill removes specific reporting requirements from Title 31 of the U.S. Code and eliminates related provisions in the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2020. Key mechanisms include striking references to reporting sections (like 5336) and repealing sections of the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act that established the rules. This would end the federal mandate for businesses to disclose ownership details to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).

Maddy summaryS 94, the "Miracle on Ice Congressional Gold Medal Act," authorizes three congressional gold medals for the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Team members. The bill directs the Secretary of the Treasury to strike the medals, with one medal displayed at each of three locations: the Lake Placid Olympic Center, the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Museum in Minnesota, and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs. The legislation also permits the sale of bronze duplicates to cover costs, with proceeds going to the U.S. Mint. This is a commemorative measure recognizing the team's 1980 Olympic victory, not a policy change affecting current legislation or constituents.

Maddy summaryThe Sporting Firearms Access Act of 2025 changes the federal import process for firearms and ammunition intended for sporting purposes, such as hunting, recreational target shooting, or competitions. It requires the Attorney General to decide within 90 days on import requests for such items, with automatic approval if no decision is made by then. The bill defines "sporting purposes" to include hunting, target shooting, and competitions, and prohibits denying imports of items substantially similar to firearms already in U.S. circulation. Importers denied approval can request a hearing and seek federal court review, where the government bears the burden of proving the item isn’t for sporting use.

Maddy summaryThe Defending American Sovereignty in Global Pandemics Act requires Senate approval before the U.S. can join any international pandemic agreement under the World Health Organization (WHO). It would suspend all U.S. funding to the WHO until the Senate ratifies such an agreement. This policy directly affects U.S. financial support to the WHO and the process for international health cooperation. The funding freeze would begin immediately and continue until the Senate approves the specific treaty.

Maddy summarySRES 21 is a symbolic Senate resolution designating October 10, 2025, as "American Girls in Sports Day." It recognizes the positive impact of sports on young girls and celebrates women's athletic achievements in U.S. history. The resolution specifically calls for protecting "biological women and girls" in sports and references Title IX, while noting concerns about biological males competing in women's sports. This resolution does not create new laws or policies but serves as a symbolic recognition and call to action for sports organizations.

Maddy summarySRES 19 is a Senate resolution honoring former President Jimmy Carter's life and legacy, commending his decades of public service, humanitarian work, and diplomatic achievements including the Camp David Accords and founding The Carter Center. The resolution specifically recognizes his Nobel Peace Prize, efforts to combat diseases like Guinea worm, and 30+ years of Habitat for Humanity homebuilding. It formally mourns his passing and extends condolences to his family, while highlighting his role in establishing U.S.-China diplomatic relations and creating the Departments of Education and Energy. As a symbolic resolution with no policy impact, it directly affects no individuals or entities but serves as a formal Senate tribute to Carter's historical contributions.

Maddy summaryThis bill would allow individuals with a valid concealed carry permit from their home state to carry concealed handguns in other states that either permit concealed carry for residents or don’t ban it entirely. It applies to permit holders who are federally eligible to possess firearms, require government-issued ID, and must follow the host state’s specific restrictions (like where carry is prohibited). The bill does not override state laws on issuing permits but ensures reciprocity for those who legally carry in their home state, excluding machineguns and destructive devices.

Maddy summaryThe Build the Wall Act of 2025 redirects unused Coronavirus relief funds to create a dedicated account for constructing physical barriers along the southern U.S. border. It mandates that the Department of Homeland Security use these redirected funds - specifically unobligated amounts from the Social Security Act's pandemic recovery programs - to build and maintain border walls. The bill directly affects the Department of Homeland Security (as the agency responsible for implementation) and U.S. taxpayers (as the source of redirected funds). This is a funding mechanism, not a new policy, repurposing existing pandemic relief money for border infrastructure.

Maddy summaryThis bill designates the mountain at Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming (and a specific nearby area) as "Devils Tower" in all official U.S. references. It updates federal documents, maps, laws, and records to use this name instead of the previous description. The bill directly affects government agencies and records that reference this Wyoming landmark. As a procedural naming bill, it makes no policy changes beyond standardizing the official name.
