S 4941: Modernizing Opioid Treatment Access Act 2.0 of 2026

The Modernizing Opioid Treatment Access Act 2.0 of 2026 allows licensed addiction medicine specialists to prescribe methadone for opioid use disorder to be dispensed directly through pharmacies, rather than requiring patients to visit traditional treatment clinics. Under this bill, these practitioners must use electronic prescribing and can only dispense liquid or dispersible tablet formulations, while pharmacies do not need separate registration to handle these prescriptions. The law also permits telemedicine for maintenance or detoxification treatment and requires doctors to obtain informed consent from patients regarding how privacy protections differ between clinic and pharmacy settings. Additionally, the Attorney General can revoke a doctor's registration if a state requests it, and the Drug Enforcement Administration must report annually on the number of registered providers and pharmacies involved in the program.

The Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor Congressional Gold Medal Act authorizes Congress to award a gold medal to individuals who fought for or with the United States in the Pacific theater during World War II and were taken as prisoners of war.

The bill directs the Secretary of the Treasury to design and strike the medal, which will be presented to the Smithsonian Institution for display, while also permitting the sale of bronze duplicates to cover production costs.

S 4927: Rural Hospital Emergency Room Guarantee Act

The Rural Hospital Emergency Room Guarantee Act creates a new funding program to support rural hospitals by establishing a dedicated Treasury fund that will provide annual payments to eligible facilities. To qualify for these funds, a hospital must be located in a rural area, participate in federal health programs, and operate a 24-hour emergency department, while also agreeing not to be owned by private equity or venture capital firms. The money received can only be used for normal operating expenses and staffing of the emergency department, with strict rules prohibiting transfers to other facilities or payments to executives. Additionally, the bill includes a special provision allowing for emergency payments of up to $250,000 if a hospital's emergency department is at risk of closing within two weeks.

This credit provides up to $4,500 annually for workers with a bachelor's degree in early childhood education or related fields, $3,000 for those with an associate's degree, and $1,500 for other eligible providers. To qualify, workers must perform at least 1,200 hours of child care services per year at a licensed facility that is not primarily their home, and the bill limits the credit to a maximum of three consecutive years per individual.

S 4896: Child Care Innovation Advancement Act of 2026

The Child Care Innovation Advancement Act of 2026 creates a five-year pilot program to help non-home-based child care providers, such as those in commercial spaces or community centers, purchase nutritious meals for children. Under this initiative, eligible and licensed programs can receive federal reimbursements for food costs at the same rate currently given to family day care homes. To ensure proper use of funds, the bill mandates regular audits by the Department of Agriculture, requiring the exclusion of programs with unresolved audit findings for two years. Additionally, the program includes measures to prevent duplicate payments and requires a final evaluation report to Congress after the pilot period ends.

S 4895: Turn the Tide Act

The Turn the Tide Act primarily increases federal funding for substance use disorder treatment, prevention, and recovery services, directing billions of dollars to states, tribes, and local organizations starting in fiscal year 2027. It expands access to medication-assisted treatment by prohibiting insurance companies from imposing prior authorization requirements or cost-sharing fees for these drugs and mandates that health plans cover at least one formulation of opioid overdose reversal medications without deductibles. The legislation also establishes new programs and grants to support first responder training, recovery housing, mental health care for children exposed to trauma, and workforce development in areas with the highest overdose death rates. Additionally, the bill extends existing Medicaid waivers and creates a demonstration project to test whether providing recovery housing under Medicaid can reduce emergency room visits and hospitalizations for individuals with opioid use disorders.

S 4889: Supporting Our Direct Care Workforce and Family Caregivers Act

The Supporting Our Direct Care Workforce and Family Caregivers Act establishes a national technical assistance center and provides $1 billion in grants to help recruit, train, and retain workers who assist older adults and people with disabilities. These funds will support projects run by states, community colleges, and other organizations to create career pathways, offer apprenticeships, and provide educational resources for both direct care professionals and family caregivers. A key requirement is that at least 30% of the funded projects must focus on advancing the careers of direct care workers through professional development and clear career ladders. The bill also mandates that grant recipients include people with disabilities, older individuals, and caregivers in planning and advisory roles to ensure programs meet community needs.

S 4879: Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act

The Let Doctors Provide Reproductive Health Care Act prohibits states and their officials from restricting or penalizing health care providers who offer reproductive health services that are legal in the state where they are performed. This includes banning laws that stop doctors, nurses, pharmacists, or their staff from providing abortion, contraception, or other reproductive care, as well as preventing the denial of professional liability insurance based on these services. The bill establishes a private right of action allowing providers to sue in federal court to challenge such restrictions and mandates that the federal government cannot use funds to support legal cases against providers acting within state law. Additionally, the legislation appropriates $80 million in grants to support legal defense funds for providers facing lawsuits and to improve physical and cybersecurity measures at health care facilities.

S 4877: Military Sexual Trauma Accountability Act

The Military Sexual Trauma Accountability Act allows members of the U.S. Armed Forces to file lawsuits against the government if they suffer injury or death due to sexual misconduct by other service members or because the military failed to prevent or investigate such incidents. This law defines sexual misconduct to include rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment, and it permits claims even when the government was negligent in its duties. The bill ensures that these claims are not reduced by any health benefits or services the veteran receives and sets a five-year time limit for filing, which pauses during any ongoing investigation. Additionally, the statute applies to cases that occurred before the law was passed, provided the filing deadline is calculated from the date of enactment.

HR 9429: The Public Service Accountability Act

The Public Service Accountability Act restricts Members of Congress, the President, Vice President, and various federal officials from owning or trading specific financial investments, including commodities and derivatives. To comply, these individuals must divest existing holdings within 180 days of the law's enactment or 90 days after becoming covered officials, while also excluding certain assets like widely held funds, government bonds, and small business interests. The bill establishes penalties for violations, including fines equal to 10% of the investment value and the disgorgement of profits, which cannot be paid using campaign funds or official allowances. Additionally, the law requires ethics offices to issue certificates of divestiture and publish details of any fines assessed on their public websites.
