HR 9568: HUSTLE Act

The HUSTLE Act creates a new type of tax-advantaged savings account specifically for college athletes to manage money earned from their name, image, and likeness.

The bill includes strict rules on how the money can be invested, limits on contribution amounts, and requirements for financial education to help athletes plan for life after their sports careers. Additionally, the account allows athletes to transfer funds to traditional retirement accounts once they are no longer eligible athletes, with a lifetime limit on such conversions.

HR 9567: Preserving Our Constitution Act of 2026

The Preserving Our Constitution Act of 2026 prohibits federal courts and government agencies from recognizing or enforcing foreign laws, religious codes, or customs that conflict with the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, it bars the application of rules that discriminate based on race, religion, or gender; restrict freedom of speech or religion; permit forced or underage marriages; or allow cruel punishments and human sacrifice. The bill also prevents U.S. courts from enforcing contracts that choose to apply such incompatible foreign laws or from honoring judgments made by foreign tribunals using those laws. While the legislation establishes these strict prohibitions, it does not create a new private right for individuals to sue for damages if the rules are violated.

To support these efforts, the bill requires grantees to submit plans detailing how they will address specific disaster needs and mandates that the Department of Housing and Urban Development provide technical assistance. Additionally, the act permits communities to treat assisted housing units as a single structure for regulatory purposes and sets a deadline for the Secretary to issue new rules formalizing these mitigation efforts.
