HR 9127: Sergeant Dave Crete FORGOTTEN Veterans Act of 2026

This bill creates a new process to identify military veterans who served at specific Nevada test sites and other facilities linked to toxic exposure, removing the requirement for them to provide proof of contact with harmful substances. It officially classifies service in these areas as involving radiation risks and establishes a legal presumption that veterans who worked there are eligible for disability benefits related to certain diseases without needing to prove a direct link between their illness and the environment. To support these changes, the legislation mandates the creation of a registry to track affected service members and funds a scientific study to better understand the health impacts of toxic exposures at these locations.

HR 8553: POPCaP Authorization Act of 2026

This bill establishes a new Precision Oncology Program for Prostate Cancer within the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide specialized care and research for veterans diagnosed with prostate or related genitourinary cancers. The legislation authorizes the creation of at least 21 designated Centers of Excellence across the country, each required to offer genetic sequencing, clinical trials, and specialized medical staff to treat eligible veterans. A dedicated leadership team will coordinate these centers, maintain a national data registry, and develop uniform tools to standardize care and research efforts. The program includes a five-year funding authorization of $15.5 million annually and mandates that existing prostate cancer resources at these facilities remain protected until 2030. Additionally, the bill requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to submit detailed implementation plans and annual performance reports to Congress to ensure accountability.

S 4775: Stopping Harmful and Outrageous Torts Act

The Stopping Harmful and Outrageous Torts Act expands legal protections for firearm manufacturers and sellers by immediately dismissing any lawsuits currently pending against them that allege harm caused by the criminal or unlawful misuse of their products. The bill defines these protected cases as those where the injury resulted from a third party's illegal actions rather than a defect in the product itself, while explicitly excluding claims involving negligent entrustment, specific federal violations, or design defects. To enforce these protections, the law allows defendants to remove such cases from state courts to federal court and grants them the right to appeal dismissal orders immediately. Additionally, the legislation preempts state and local laws that attempt to hold these companies liable for product misuse and provides for attorney's fees for defendants who successfully assert their immunity.

S 4771: Protecting Asylum Integrity Act

The Protecting Asylum Integrity Act establishes a mandatory fee of at least $100 for individuals undergoing credible fear interviews, which is the initial screening process for those seeking asylum or other protection from removal. This fee must be paid before the interview takes place and is designed to cover the administrative costs associated with these screenings while potentially deterring the filing of meritless claims. Half of the collected fees will be used directly by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to support processing operations, while the other half will go to the general Treasury fund. The bill also includes a provision to adjust the fee amount annually for inflation starting in fiscal year 2027.

S 4769: Illegal Immigration Cost Recovery Act

The Illegal Immigration Cost Recovery Act increases civil penalties for employers who hire unauthorized workers and for individuals who fail to leave the country or enter improperly. Specifically, the bill raises fines for hiring violations from a maximum of $2,000 to $11,448 and increases penalties for unauthorized entry and failure to depart to a maximum of $1,000 and $1,996, respectively. These higher fines apply to the relevant employers and individuals starting on October 1, 2027, with amounts adjusted annually for inflation based on the Consumer Price Index. The law also requires the Secretary of Homeland Security to publish these updated penalty figures in the Federal Register each year.

S 4750: Semiconductor Superiority Act

The Semiconductor Superiority Act expands tax incentives for building semiconductor manufacturing facilities in outer space, including low-Earth orbit. It modifies existing federal tax credits to allow equipment used for transporting crew or supplies, as well as property located in space, to count toward these financial benefits. The bill also clarifies that functions like flight control and crew habitation are considered part of the manufacturing process for these orbital facilities. This legislation applies only to new facilities and equipment placed in service after the law is enacted.

HR 9298: Stopping Harmful and Outrageous Torts Act

This bill, known as the Stopping Harmful and Outrageous Torts Act, expands legal protections for firearm manufacturers and sellers by strengthening their immunity from civil lawsuits. It requires courts to immediately dismiss any pending cases against these companies that are based on the criminal or unlawful misuse of a gun by a third party, while also clarifying that sellers are not liable for negligence in entrusting products to others. The legislation further restricts who can file such suits by prohibiting foreign governments from bringing these claims and adding a specific exception for victims under the age of 17, though it maintains immunity for cases involving design or manufacturing defects. Additionally, the bill allows companies to move these cases to federal court and grants them the right to appeal dismissal orders immediately, along with the ability to recover legal fees if they win. Finally, it preempts state and local laws that attempt to impose liability on these entities for the same types of misuse-related harms.

HR 9289: Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act of 2026

The Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act of 2026 eliminates a federal tax credit that allowed parents to deduct contributions to scholarship granting organizations from their income. By removing these specific tax breaks, the bill prevents the use of public tax dollars to support private school vouchers and scholarship programs. This change directly affects families who currently rely on these tax incentives to fund education outside the public school system. The provisions take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2026.

HR 9274: Gun Violence Prevention and Public Safety Database Act of 2026

The Gun Violence Prevention and Public Safety Database Act of 2026 directs the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to create a publicly accessible online database containing research on gun violence in the United States. To be included, studies must meet specific criteria such as presenting original analysis, describing their data sources and methods, and being published in peer-reviewed journals or by government agencies. The database will draw on existing federal health and safety systems and must be updated every six months, while the bill also authorizes $5 million annually through 2030 to fund this research and database maintenance.

HR 9273: To direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services to require public institutions of higher education that receive grants under the Medical Student Education program to include training for medical students relating to menopause in the curriculums of such institutions, and for other purposes.

This bill directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to require public institutions of higher education receiving Medical Student Education grants to include menopause training in their medical school curricula. The key provision makes this specific training a mandatory condition for receiving federal funding, aiming to better prepare physicians across all specialties to care for patients experiencing menopause.

This bill, titled the Dignity and Due Process for Children Act of 2026, restricts how unaccompanied children under 18 are handled by immigration authorities in the United States. It requires immigration judges to issue an arrest warrant before detaining these children pending removal decisions and prohibits the use of military personnel or Department of Defense vehicles to transport them for deportation, except during declared natural disasters. Additionally, the law forbids government agencies from pressuring children to sign legal documents that affect their status without first ensuring they have confidential access to a lawyer, mandating legal referrals within five business days if a child does not already have one.
