Rep. Andrew Ogles

Maddy summaryThis bill, known as the Daughters of the American Revolution Membership Integrity Act, amends federal law to explicitly limit membership in the Daughters of the American Revolution to adult human females. It defines a female as someone who naturally possesses or would have the reproductive system capable of producing ova for fertilization, regardless of any congenital anomalies or medical disruptions. By adding this specific definition to the organization's governing code, the legislation clarifies the genealogical and biological requirements for joining the group. The change directly affects the organization's eligibility rules but does not alter its internal operations or funding.

Maddy summaryHR 7651, the Chloe Cole Act of 2026, prohibits healthcare providers from performing certain medical interventions on minors under 18 aimed at altering physical development to align with gender identity. These "covered interventions" include puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and specific surgeries, but exclude medically necessary care for conditions like disorders of sexual development or traumatic injuries. The bill creates a federal civil lawsuit right for affected minors or their parents against providers who perform such interventions, allowing claims for damages including emotional distress and punitive awards, with strict liability for providers after the law's enactment. It explicitly allows exceptions for legitimate medical treatments and requires providers to prove such exceptions apply if challenged.

Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the Permanent Trump Secure Border Act, aims to strengthen border security and reform immigration enforcement by directing the Department of Homeland Security to resume and complete the construction of a physical border wall, expand the use of surveillance technology, and increase staffing levels for Border Patrol agents. It also imposes stricter rules on asylum eligibility and employment authorization for applicants, mandates the reopening of specific immigration detention facilities, and requires the return of individuals arriving from contiguous foreign countries to those nations while their claims are processed. Additionally, the legislation expands penalties for visa overstays, limits the use of certain digital tools like the CBP One app, and includes provisions to reduce funding for organizations that facilitate illegal entry or provide services to inadmissible aliens.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits federal funding under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act for any program, activity, literature, or material provided to children under 18 that includes "sexually oriented material," defined as depictions of explicit conduct or content involving gender dysphoria or transgenderism. It exempts standard science courses (like biology and anatomy), religious texts, and specific "classic" works of literature and art listed in designated references (e.g., *Great Books of the Western World* and Smarthistory guides). The law directly affects federally funded K-12 educational programs, restricting how school districts can use federal dollars for curriculum materials. It does not ban teaching about human anatomy, art history, or literature, as those are explicitly excluded from the definition of prohibited material.

Maddy summaryThe Anchors Away Act modifies U.S. immigration laws to expand birthright citizenship and restrict entry for certain pregnant individuals. It clarifies that anyone born in the United States to a parent who is a citizen, a lawful permanent resident, or a member of the U.S. Armed Forces automatically acquires citizenship. Additionally, the bill makes it illegal for pregnant nonimmigrants who are not married to U.S. citizens to enter the country, though it allows entry for those seeking legitimate medical treatment for childbirth. These changes apply only to people born on or after the law's enactment and to new admission applications filed on or after that date.

Maddy summaryThe Remigration Act introduces several strict measures to revoke U.S. citizenship and immigration status under specific conditions. It allows for the loss of naturalized citizenship if a person is convicted of government fraud, joins a terrorist organization, or commits certain serious crimes within ten years of becoming a citizen. Additionally, the bill defines citizenship for children born in the U.S. based on their parents' legal status, creates a task force to review asylum and refugee grants made between 2021 and 2025, and mandates the revocation of status for individuals from designated countries or those who received public benefits recently. The legislation also raises the English language requirement for naturalization, allows for deportation based on anti-American beliefs, and requires denaturalized individuals to repatriate with their children.

Maddy summaryThis resolution commemorates the fourth anniversary of the 2022 Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which removed the federal constitutional right to abortion. The text expresses support for state authority to regulate abortion and acknowledges the work of pregnancy centers that provide care to women and families. It also recognizes the belief that unborn life possesses inherent rights and calls for the protection of that life. As a symbolic measure, the bill does not change any laws or policies but serves to formally celebrate the anniversary and state the House's position on the issue.

Maddy summaryThe Saving FACE Act of 2026 amends federal criminal law to remove penalties for obstructing access to abortion services. It achieves this by changing the name of the relevant statute from "Freedom of Access to Clinics" to "Freedom of Access to Church" and removing the specific definition of abortion from the list of protected activities. Additionally, the bill updates the legal definition of abortion to exclude the intentional termination of a pregnancy, thereby narrowing the scope of the obstruction statute. These changes directly affect individuals who might otherwise face criminal charges for blocking entry to facilities providing abortion care.

Maddy summaryThis resolution expresses the House's sense that parents need clear and accurate information about video content to make informed decisions for their children. It calls on the Federal Communications Commission to modernize the existing ratings system to cover all video platforms, including streaming services, and to ensure content descriptions are neutral and specific. The bill also urges the creation of an oversight body that includes parents and child advocates alongside industry representatives to increase transparency in how ratings are assigned. Ultimately, it seeks to improve parental guidance tools and public awareness without mandating specific changes to current laws.
