Rep. Celeste Maloy

Maddy summaryHRES 1073 is a non-binding resolution designating February 21-28, 2026, as "National FFA Week" to recognize the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Organization’s role in developing agricultural education leaders and to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Alaska’s State FFA Association. It does not create new laws or affect any specific groups or policies; instead, it formally expresses the House’s support for this commemorative week. The resolution highlights FFA’s mission to prepare students for leadership and careers in agriculture, food, and natural resources. As a symbolic gesture, it has no direct legislative or financial impact on constituents.

Maddy summaryThis bill transfers approximately 295.89 acres of National Forest System land in Utah's Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest to the city of Fruit Heights, Utah. The land, depicted on a specific map, will be conveyed via quitclaim deed with no payment required. The city must use the land solely for public purposes, and the Secretary of Agriculture retains a reservation for the Bonneville Shoreline Trail easement. If the land is used inconsistently with public purposes, it will revert to the federal government.

Maddy summaryHR 7391, the Community Health Center Drug Pricing Protection Act, requires that Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) pay the discounted 340B ceiling price for covered drugs **at the time of purchase**, not later through rebates or adjustments. This directly affects FQHCs, which rely on 340B discounts to provide affordable care to low-income patients. The bill amends the Public Health Service Act to prohibit manufacturers from entering agreements where FQHCs initially pay more than the ceiling price, with later reimbursement. It takes effect immediately upon enactment for all new drug purchases and applies to existing agreements starting then.

Maddy summaryThis bill exempts certain less-than-lethal projectile devices from federal sales taxes and National Firearms Act restrictions. It directly affects manufacturers, importers, and producers of these devices, which are defined as non-lethal tools (like rubber bullets or beanbag rounds) designed not to cause serious injury and unable to be easily converted to use standard firearm ammunition. Key mechanisms include a 90-day classification process for manufacturers seeking exemption, an annual public list of approved devices, and annual congressional reports on devices excluded from the exemption. The policy change applies to devices meeting specific safety criteria, such as projectile velocity limits and design features preventing misuse as conventional weapons.

Maddy summaryHR 7276 would impose a 30% tariff on sheep and lamb products imported from Australia or New Zealand, effective 30 days after the bill becomes law. This directly affects Australian and New Zealand exporters of these goods, including meat (lamb), wool, and wool-containing products like pelts. The bill requires the President to add this specific duty to existing import tariffs on all covered products, as defined in the legislation. Key terms clarify that "lamb" refers to meat from young sheep (not mutton), "sheep products" include wool, and "lamb products" encompass items made from lamb. The policy change is a straightforward trade measure increasing import costs for these specific agricultural exports.

Maddy summaryHR 7074 requires the Secretary of the Interior to join the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) when reviewing transactions involving land or resources near federal lands managed by agencies like the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, or Bureau of Indian Affairs. It specifically targets acquisitions by foreign entities from China, North Korea, Russia, or Iran, mandating CFIUS to assess whether such transactions - reported by the Interior Secretary - constitute a "covered transaction" requiring review. The bill creates a new process for evaluating these land deals, with the review ending for a specific country once it’s removed from the U.S. list of "foreign adversaries." This directly affects foreign buyers from those four nations seeking to acquire land adjacent to federally protected areas.

Maddy summaryThis symbolic House resolution expresses U.S. congressional support for Iranian protesters demanding democracy and human rights. It condemns the Iranian regime's violent suppression of protests, including killings, mass arrests, and internet restrictions, while urging the regime to release political prisoners and restore communication access. The resolution reaffirms the Iranian people's right to self-determination through free elections and echoes a 2023 resolution (HCR 7) that similarly praised protesters. As a non-binding expression of support, it does not impose new policies or alter U.S. government actions.

Maddy summaryHR 6277, the SAWMILL Act, creates a loan guarantee program to support rural sawmills and wood-processing facilities. It provides guaranteed loans to eligible entities (like sawmill owners in rural areas) seeking to establish, expand, or improve operations within 250 miles of federal lands identified for ecological restoration involving vegetation removal. The program aims to reduce the cost of these restoration projects by ensuring local mills process the removed vegetation. The Department of Agriculture will offer up to $220 million in total loan guarantees under this program, with specific conditions set by the Secretary.

Maddy summaryHR 909, the Crime Victims Fund Stabilization Act of 2025, modifies how funds from the False Claims Act are deposited into the Crime Victims Fund. It specifies that from 2025 through 2029, certain False Claims Act proceeds (specifically those for qui tam plaintiff payments and government damage reimbursements) cannot be deposited into the fund. This change directly affects the composition of the Crime Victims Fund by excluding these specific revenue streams during the specified period. The bill does not create new benefits or alter victim services; it only adjusts fund allocation rules for existing False Claims Act revenues.

Maddy summaryHR 1110, the Grazing for Wildfire Risk Reduction Act, directs the USDA Forest Service to develop strategies using livestock grazing to reduce wildfire risks on federal lands. It specifically requires expanding grazing opportunities during droughts or disasters on vacant permits, promoting targeted grazing, issuing temporary permits for fuels reduction, and using grazing for postfire recovery. The bill affects livestock permit holders and federal land managers by modifying how existing grazing authorities are applied for wildfire risk mitigation. It focuses on concrete policy changes to utilize current grazing programs as a proactive fire prevention tool, without altering permanent grazing rules.
