Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a policy requiring Saudi Arabia to give up uranium enrichment and reprocessing capabilities on its soil and agree to an International Atomic Energy Agency inspection protocol before the U.S. can approve a civilian nuclear cooperation agreement with the country. It mandates that the President submit a detailed report to Congress outlining Saudi Arabia's commitments on these nuclear restrictions before any agreement can proceed. Additionally, the legislation requires Congress to pass a joint resolution explicitly approving the agreement before it can take effect, ensuring legislative oversight over the deal. The bill also directs the U.S. to oppose nuclear technology sales to Saudi Arabia through the Nuclear Suppliers Group until these conditions are met.

Maddy summarySJRES 103 is a congressional disapproval resolution targeting a Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) rule on reproductive health services for veterans. The resolution, if passed, would block the VA rule from taking effect by invoking the Congressional Review Act (Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code), meaning the rule published in the Federal Register (December 31, 2025) would have no legal force. This directly affects the VA’s ability to implement new guidelines for reproductive health services at its facilities, preserving existing policies instead. The resolution does not create new policy but halts a specific administrative rule.
Maddy summaryThe Student Loan Interest Elimination Act would eliminate interest on existing Federal Direct student loans and set the interest rate for new Federal Direct student loans to zero starting July 1, 2026. The bill also establishes an Education Affordability Trust Fund financed by loan repayments to fund these zero-interest loans and provide additional Pell Grants. Under the program, borrowers could opt out of automatic interest elimination and refinancing, and the bill includes provisions for calculating qualifying payments toward loan forgiveness programs.
Maddy summaryThe FARM Home Loans Act of 2026 modifies the Farm Credit Act of 1971 to expand financing options for rural homeowners. It allows Farm Credit institutions to provide loans for accessory dwelling units in addition to traditional home improvements. The bill also increases the maximum loan amount for these rural housing projects from $2,500 to $10,000. These changes directly affect rural property owners seeking financing for secondary living spaces on their land. The legislation aims to increase access to home improvement funding in rural markets through existing Farm Credit programs.
Maddy summaryThis joint resolution seeks to prohibit a specific foreign military sale of defense articles and services to the Government of Israel. It directly affects the proposed transaction by invoking the Congressional Review Act to disapprove the sale of 10,000 BLU-111 500-pound general purpose bombs and related logistics support. The bill uses the statutory authority under the Arms Export Control Act to block the sale without requiring new legislation. If passed, it would prevent the transfer of these specific weapons and associated services to Israel.
Maddy summaryThis joint resolution seeks to prohibit the licensing of specific defense articles and services to Israel, including 5,000 Small Diameter Bomb Weapon Systems. The bill directly affects the proposed arms sales notification submitted to Congress on March 12, 2026, under the Arms Export Control Act. By passing this resolution, Congress would exercise its authority to disapprove the licensing of these particular defense items. The measure is currently referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations for consideration.
Maddy summaryThis resolution designates March 21, 2026, as "National Women in Agriculture Day" to recognize the contributions of women in the agricultural sector. The bill directly affects women working in farming, research, education, and related industries by formally acknowledging their roles as producers, leaders, and mentors. It highlights that women represent over one-third of U.S. agricultural producers and generated $222 billion in agricultural sales in 2022. The designation encourages citizens to celebrate and support women in agriculture during National Ag Week, which coincides with the date. This is a commemorative measure rather than a policy change that alters laws or programs.
Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the No Bailout for Crypto Act, prohibits the U.S. government from providing financial assistance to companies and systems involved in digital asset activities to prevent their failure or bankruptcy. It specifically bars Federal agencies from using emergency liquidity facilities, the Exchange Stabilization Fund, or other taxpayer resources to support digital asset intermediaries, decentralized finance protocols, or regulated financial service providers operating in the digital asset space. The legislation aims to establish a clear rule that digital asset market participants cannot receive taxpayer-funded bailouts, while maintaining the Federal Reserve's existing authority to lend to traditional depository institutions.
Maddy summaryThis bill establishes the AI Research and Oversight in Courts Task Force to study how artificial intelligence speech-to-text and automatic speech recognition technologies are used in federal and state courts across the United States. The 15-member task force, composed of government officials and independent experts, will assess issues related to accuracy, privacy, civil liberties, and costs associated with these technologies in the judicial system. Within 18 months of enactment, the group must submit a final report to Congress with findings and recommendations on whether these technologies affect court record integrity, alter speech from individuals with accents or speech impediments, and pose cybersecurity risks. The task force will also examine whether court records should include watermarks or metadata to indicate AI involvement and provide guidance on vendor selection for these technologies.
Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the Fair Prices for Local Businesses Act, amends the Clayton Act to broaden the federal prohibition against price discrimination. It expands the law's scope to cover products and services rather than just physical goods, and extends its reach to include activities that affect commerce beyond direct commercial transactions. The bill also clarifies definitions of purchasing and adds liability for entities that induce or benefit from price discrimination, while providing a higher sales threshold for smaller businesses. Additionally, it strengthens legal remedies for victims of price discrimination by establishing a presumption of injury and allowing for additional damages beyond the amount of the discrimination itself.
