Rep. Tim Moore

Maddy summaryThis bill amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to explicitly include accounting education as part of a well-rounded K-12 curriculum. It requires schools to develop and strengthen programs teaching accounting, including increasing access to high-quality accounting courses for students from groups historically underrepresented in accounting careers. The key provision inserts specific language into existing law, directing schools to promote accounting career awareness and expand course availability through grade 12. This directly affects K-12 students, particularly those from underrepresented backgrounds, by making accounting education a recognized component of career-focused learning.

Maddy summaryHJRES 92 is a congressional disapproval resolution targeting a specific regulatory rule. It seeks to block a rule issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on September 25, 2024 (89 Fed. Reg. 78207), which outlined procedures for reviewing bank merger applications under the Bank Merger Act. If passed, this resolution would make the OCC's rule "have no force or effect," preventing it from being implemented. The resolution directly affects the federal process for reviewing bank mergers but does not change existing law or create new requirements.

Supplemental Oxygen Access Reform Act of 2025 or the SOAR Act of 2025 This bill establishes certain requirements with respect to the payment and provision of supplemental oxygen and related services under Medicare. For example, the bill provides for separate payments, indexed to inflation, of oxygen and related equipment, supplies, and services under Medicare (rather than under the competitive acquisition program). It also specifically covers services that are provided by respiratory therapists under Medicare and provides for an additional payment adjustment for these services. Additionally, the bill (1) requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to develop an electronic template for providers to use when prescribing oxygen and related equipment, supplies, and services; and (2) establishes certain rights for beneficiaries receiving these items and services, such as the right to choose their suppliers and to receive clear communications and be informed about the services provided.

Maddy summaryThis bill provides tax relief for mobile mammography services by refunding federal excise taxes on fuel used in qualifying vehicles and exempting that fuel from retail taxation. Specifically, it requires the IRS to refund excise taxes paid on fuel used in highway vehicles exclusively designed for mobile mammography services, and it exempts such fuel from the retail excise tax under Section 4041. These changes directly benefit mobile mammography providers by reducing their operational costs for vehicle fuel. The provisions take effect upon the bill's enactment.

Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act or the SAVE Act This bill requires individuals to provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections. Specifically, the bill prohibits states from accepting and processing an application to register to vote in a federal election unless the applicant presents documentary proof of U.S. citizenship. The bill specifies what documents are considered acceptable proof of U.S. citizenship, such as identification that complies with the REAL ID Act of 2005 that indicates U.S. citizenship. Further, the bill (1) prohibits states from registering an individual to vote in a federal election unless, at the time the individual applies to register to vote, the individual provides documentary proof of U.S. citizenship; and (2) requires states to establish an alternative process under which an applicant may submit other evidence to demonstrate U.S. citizenship. Each state must take affirmative steps on an ongoing basis to ensure that only U.S. citizens are registered to vote, which shall include establishing a program to identify individuals who are not U.S. citizens using information supplied by certain sources. Additionally, states must remove noncitizens from their official lists of eligible voters. The bill allows for a private right of action against an election official who registers an applicant to vote in a federal election who fails to present documentary proof of U.S. citizenship. The bill establishes criminal penalties for certain offenses, including registering an applicant to vote in a federal election who fails to present documentary proof of U.S. citizenship.

Maddy summaryHR 2777, the S-CAP Act of 2025, amends the Internal Revenue Code to increase the maximum number of shareholders allowed for a business to qualify as an S corporation from 100 to 250. This change directly affects small businesses that currently exceed the 100-shareholder limit, allowing them to maintain S-corporation tax status. The key provision modifies Section 1361(b)(1)(A) of the tax code, with the new limit applying to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025. The bill makes no other changes to S-corporation rules and focuses solely on expanding the shareholder cap.

Nuclear Family Priority Act This bill imposes limits on various types of family-sponsored immigration visas. The non-U.S. national ( alien  under federal law) parents of U.S. citizens shall not qualify for visas for immediate relatives, which are not subject to any direct numerical limits. Currently, the spouses, unmarried children under 21, and parents of citizens are considered immediate relatives. The bill also creates a nonimmigrant visa for such parents of citizens. Such non-U.S. nationals shall not be eligible for employment or any public benefits. The bill also reduces the baseline annual cap for family-sponsored visas from 480,000 to 88,000, and revises the methods for calculating the cap. Currently, the 480,000 cap may be adjusted depending on various factors but shall not be less than 226,000. The bill eliminates preference allocations (visa categories subject to various annual caps) for various family-sponsored visas, including those for the siblings and married children of citizens. The bill provides for a preference allocation for the unmarried children under 21 and spouses of permanent residents, subject to the 88,000 annual cap.

Maddy summaryThe Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act of 2025 would reform the Low-Income Housing Credit program, which provides tax credits to developers of affordable housing. It would increase state allocations based on population with annual cost-of-living adjustments, modify tenant eligibility rules to allow higher income limits for some residents, and add protections for domestic violence victims in housing. The bill would simplify rules for rural and Native American housing projects, clarify credit eligibility requirements, and require greater transparency in program administration. These changes would directly affect developers, property owners, and low-income tenants in housing projects that receive LIHC tax credits.

Maddy summaryHR 2729, the "Carnivals are Real Entertainment Act," creates a new temporary work visa category for carnival and circus workers. It directly affects mobile entertainment providers (like traveling carnivals, circuses, and affiliated food/game concession services) and their workers who perform essential tasks such as transporting, assembling, operating, and maintaining rides and equipment at seasonal fairs and festivals. The bill amends immigration law to define "mobile entertainment workers" as those entering temporarily for functions integral to these operations, subject to labor program requirements similar to other temporary work visas. It requires the Departments of Homeland Security and Labor to issue implementing rules within one year of enactment.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends immigration law to expand mandatory detention for non-citizen immigrants convicted of specific property crimes. It adds trespassing, vandalism, and arson to the list of offenses that trigger detention under Section 236(c) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, alongside burglary and serious bodily injury. Non-citizen immigrants convicted of these crimes would now face automatic detention without bond, rather than potentially being released pending removal proceedings. The key change modifies existing detention criteria to include these three property crimes as grounds for mandatory immigration detention.
