Rep. Tim Moore

Maddy summaryThis resolution formally congratulates the Carolina Hurricanes on winning the 2026 Stanley Cup, marking the franchise's first championship in two decades. The bill recognizes the team's historic playoff run, their economic impact on Raleigh, North Carolina, and their community contributions to veterans and disaster relief efforts. It also honors specific individuals, including Captain Jordan Staal and Head Coach Rod Brind'Amour, for their leadership and achievements during the season. Ultimately, the House directs the Clerk to send a copy of the resolution to the team's owner, general manager, and head coach while acknowledging North Carolina as a hockey state.

Maddy summaryThis bill sets clear limits on class action lawsuits against credit reporting companies for violations of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). For intentional failures to follow FCRA rules, it caps individual damages at $100,000 or 40% of total damages, and total class recovery at $500,000 or 1% of the company’s net worth. For negligent failures, it similarly limits total class recovery to $500,000, 1% of net worth, or 40% of actual damages. These changes directly affect credit bureaus (like Equifax or TransUnion) and creditors handling consumer credit data, preventing excessive damages in class actions. The bill harmonizes existing liability rules by adding specific, predictable financial limits to court awards.

Maddy summaryThis resolution designates the week of June 29 through July 4, 2026, as National Tire Safety Week to raise awareness among American motorists about vehicle tire maintenance. The measure encourages drivers to inspect their tires for damage, check pressure monthly, and follow manufacturer recommendations for rotation and alignment to prevent accidents and improve safety. By promoting these specific maintenance habits, the bill aims to reduce tire-related injuries and fatalities on the road without imposing new legal requirements or funding changes.

Maddy summaryThe Broadband Infrastructure Extension Act extends the deadline for spending federal funds on broadband infrastructure projects. It directly affects state and local governments that have received money from the Social Security Act's fiscal recovery and capital projects funds. The bill allows these agencies to use the designated money for broadband projects until September 30, 2027, or until January 1, 2028, depending on the specific fund source. This change provides additional time for communities to plan and complete their network upgrades without losing the allocated resources.

Maddy summaryThis resolution formally congratulates the Carolina Hurricanes on winning the 2026 Stanley Cup, recognizing their 4-2 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights. It highlights key achievements such as the team's 16-3 playoff record, Captain Jordan Staal winning the Conn Smythe Trophy, and the franchise's 20-year anniversary of its first championship. The text also acknowledges the contributions of the coaching staff, management, and individual players, as well as the team's community support efforts.

Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes the presentation of Congressional Gold Medals to the four crew members of the Artemis II mission to recognize their historic achievement in advancing human space exploration. The legislation directs the Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate to arrange for the medals, which will feature the faces of the astronauts and be struck by the Secretary of the Treasury. In addition to the gold medals, the bill permits the minting and sale of duplicate bronze versions to help cover production costs, with any proceeds returned to the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund.

Maddy summaryThis bill redesignates the existing National Parks and Public Land Legacy Restoration Fund as the America's Legacy Restoration Fund to address deferred maintenance on federal lands. It directs revenue from recreation fees and a portion of energy development income into the fund, which must be used primarily for repairing critical infrastructure like roads, trails, and buildings managed by agencies such as the National Park Service and the Forest Service. The legislation establishes strict rules requiring that most funds go toward non-transportation projects, mandates transparency through public dashboards tracking project status, and sets aside a small percentage for matching private donations. Additionally, the bill increases entrance fees for foreign visitors to ensure they contribute to the fund, while prohibiting the use of these specific funds for land acquisition or employee bonuses.

Maddy summaryThe Disaster Loan Accountability and Reform Act (DLARA) requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) to improve transparency and accountability for disaster loans. It mandates monthly reports detailing loan funding status, new budget requests with historical cost comparisons, and strict limits on loan obligations when funds fall below 10% of a 10-year average. The bill also requires GAO and SBA Inspector General reviews of funding shortfalls, cost impacts of recent policy changes, and enhanced forecasting for disaster loan budgets. These provisions directly affect the SBA’s operations and its reporting to Congress, aiming to prevent future funding crises through better data and oversight.

Maddy summaryHR 2978, the GUARD Act, allows state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies to use existing federal grant funds for investigating elder financial fraud, "pig butchering" investment scams, and general financial fraud. The bill directs these funds toward hiring specialized staff, training on blockchain tools and transnational fraud, purchasing investigative software, improving data collection, and creating financial sector liaisons to coordinate with banks. It requires annual reports from law enforcement on fund usage and outcomes, and mandates federal agencies to submit comprehensive reports to Congress on scam statistics, enforcement actions, and funding allocation. The legislation directly affects law enforcement agencies and aims to strengthen efforts against fraud targeting vulnerable populations, particularly elderly individuals.

Maddy summaryHR 941, the Small LENDER Act, creates a 3-year compliance period and a subsequent 2-year penalty-free period for small lenders required to report small business lending data under a new rule. It directly affects financial institutions that originated at least 500 small business loans in each of the previous two years (defined as loans to businesses with under $1 million annual revenue). The bill delays full enforcement of new data reporting requirements, giving lenders time to adjust without penalties during the grace periods. This changes how the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau enforces reporting rules for smaller lenders focused on small business loans.
