S 3859: A bill to amend the Catawba Indian Tribe of South Carolina Land Claims Settlement Act of 1993 with respect to future membership in the Catawba Indian Nation.

S 3859 amends the 1993 settlement act for the Catawba Indian Tribe of South Carolina by removing a specific requirement for future tribal membership. Currently, the law states that new members must be direct descendants of individuals on the original membership roll and must have maintained ongoing political ties with the tribe. This bill eliminates that requirement, allowing the Catawba Indian Nation to establish its own membership criteria without federal constraints. The change directly affects the Catawba Indian Nation by altering how it determines eligibility for tribal membership.

S 1750: Poarch Band of Creek Indians Parity Act

This bill retroactively applies the 1934 Indian Reorganization Act to the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, confirming their status under federal law since June 18, 1934. It reaffirms all lands taken into trust for the tribe before the bill's enactment as federal trust lands, clarifying their legal standing. The bill directly affects the Poarch Band by resolving longstanding ambiguity about their inclusion under the Indian Reorganization Act. It ensures their existing land rights and governance authority under federal law are formally recognized.

HR 226: Eastern Band of Cherokee Historic Lands Reacquisition Act

This bill transfers specific federal lands managed by the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in Monroe County, Tennessee, into trust for the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. It includes 46 acres for the Sequoyah Museum, 11.9 acres for support facilities, 18.2 acres for Chota and Tanasi memorials, plus easements for a peninsula (8.5 acres) and trail (11.4 acres). The lands must be used primarily for cultural preservation - like interpreting Cherokee history, managing memorials, and operating educational programs related to the Trail of Tears - while respecting TVA's flood control and water management responsibilities. The bill explicitly prohibits gaming on these lands and outlines detailed conditions for TVA's water level management and tribal land use.

S 5454: Small Business Audit Correction Act of 2026

The Small Business Audit Correction Act of 2026 amends the Sarbanes-Oxley Act to exempt certain small, privately held securities firms from mandatory audits by registered public accounting firms under Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) oversight. The bill defines these eligible firms as "non-carrying" brokers or dealers that do not hold customer funds or securities and have no more than 150 registered representatives. To qualify for this exemption, a firm must also be in good standing, which requires maintaining specific financial capital ratios, having no recent regulatory orders or felony convictions, and remaining free from suspensions by industry associations. The Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB are directed to update their regulations within 180 days of enactment to implement these changes, allowing qualifying firms to satisfy audit obligations through standard generally accepted auditing standards rather than PCAOB-specific requirements.

S 5452: A bill to amend the Financial Stability Act of 2010 to provide for tailoring and indexing enhanced regulations.

S. 5452 raises the asset size limits that trigger enhanced financial regulations for large banks and nonbank financial companies, effectively exempting more institutions from these stricter rules. The bill increases key statutory thresholds, such as raising the limit for certain bank holding company requirements from $250 billion to $370 billion and adjusting other benchmarks from $10 billion to $15 billion. It also mandates that the Federal Reserve adjust these dollar amounts every five years based on inflation or economic growth metrics, ensuring the limits keep pace with the economy over time.

S 5451: A bill to amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to require that recipients of Pell Grants be citizens or nationals of the United States.

This bill amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to restrict eligibility for Pell Grants to students who are citizens or nationals of the United States. It directly affects non-citizen and non-national students currently enrolled in or applying to institutions that receive federal financial aid, as they would no longer qualify for this specific grant program. The legislation achieves this by adding a new definition of "eligible student" that explicitly requires U.S. citizenship or nationality, overriding other provisions that might allow broader eligibility.
