S 378: Protect Camp Lejeune VETS Act

This bill limits attorneys' fees for claims related to water contamination at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, affecting veterans, civilians, and their attorneys filing under the Camp Lejeune Justice Act.

S 319: POWER Act

This bill prohibits the President from blocking or delaying new oil, gas, coal, or mineral leases on federal lands (including national forests, public lands, and the outer continental shelf) without explicit congressional approval. It specifically prevents the President from imposing moratoria on new energy leases or withdrawing federal lands from energy development without an act of Congress. The law applies directly to federal land management decisions, requiring Congress to authorize any action that would restrict energy leasing or development on these lands. This is a procedural change affecting how federal energy leasing and land use decisions are made.

S 363: North Platte Canteen Congressional Gold Medal Act

This bill authorizes a Congressional Gold Medal to honor the volunteers and donors who supported the North Platte Canteen during World War II. It directs the Treasury Secretary to strike a gold medal commemorating the approximately 55,000 individuals (mostly women) from Nebraska, Colorado, and Kansas who provided food, hospitality, and donations to over 6 million troops between 1941 and 1946. The medal will be presented to the Lincoln County Historical Museum in North Platte, Nebraska, for public display and research. The bill is purely commemorative and does not create new programs or obligations.

S 344: Major Richard Star Act

This bill allows veterans with combat-related disabilities and less than 20 years of service to receive both military retired pay and VA disability compensation simultaneously. Previously, such veterans had their retired pay reduced to avoid "concurrent receipt" of both benefits. The bill removes the 20-year service requirement for this group, applying specifically to those retired under Chapter 61 of Title 10 with a combat-related disability as defined in existing law. It does not change eligibility for veterans with non-combat disabilities or those with 20+ years of service.

S 341: Broadband Grant Tax Treatment Act

This bill excludes certain federal broadband grants from recipients' taxable income, directly affecting internet service providers, local governments, tribes, and other entities receiving qualifying grants under specific programs. Key provisions clarify that grant money from programs like the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act's Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program (Section 60102) or State Digital Equity Grants (Section 60304) is not counted as income. It also prevents double tax benefits by disallowing deductions for expenses covered by these grants and reducing the adjusted basis of related property. The rule applies to grants received after March 11, 2021, and covers grants funded through federal broadband initiatives or state/local programs using specific federal funds.

S 333: Keep Our Communities Safe Act of 2023

The Keep Our Communities Safe Act of 2023 amends immigration detention procedures to extend the length of detention for certain aliens without time limits, except as specified in the bill. It changes terminology from "parole" to "recognizance" throughout the process and establishes new criteria that make it more difficult for certain aliens to be released on bond during removal proceedings. The bill adds specific circumstances under which detention can continue beyond the standard removal period, including for aliens convicted of certain crimes, those deemed a threat to national security, or those who fail to cooperate with removal efforts. These changes primarily affect immigrants facing removal proceedings who may be held in detention for extended periods without bond eligibility.

S 362: TAILOR Act of 2023

The TAILOR Act of 2023 requires federal banking regulators (like the FDIC and Federal Reserve) to adjust rules based on each financial institution’s specific risk level and business model, particularly reducing regulatory burdens for smaller community banks. It mandates that regulators document how they tailor rules in rulemaking notices and submit annual reports to Congress on implementation. The bill also directs a review of existing regulations issued over the past seven years to apply these tailoring principles retroactively. A key provision simplifies reporting requirements for community banks eligible under the Community Bank Leverage Ratio framework. This aims to make oversight more practical for smaller institutions while maintaining regulatory oversight.

SJRES 8: A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to "Prudence and Loyalty in Selecting Plan Investments and Exercising Shareholder Rights".

This joint resolution seeks congressional disapproval of a Department of Labor rule published in the Federal Register on December 1, 2022 (87 Fed. Reg. 73822), which addressed "Prudence and Loyalty in Selecting Plan Investments and Exercising Shareholder Rights." If enacted, it would block the rule from taking effect, directly affecting retirement plan fiduciaries (such as those managing 401(k) plans) who must follow these standards. The resolution uses a specific disapproval process under Chapter 8 of Title 5, U.S. Code, to nullify the rule without altering its content. This is a procedural action targeting the rule's implementation, not a new policy.
