HR 10309: HOMEFRONT Act of 2026

The HOMEFRONT Act of 2026 prohibits U.S. courts from recognizing or enforcing foreign judgments based on censorship laws if the underlying conduct would be protected by the First Amendment in the United States. The bill places the burden of proof on the party seeking enforcement to demonstrate that the foreign court's jurisdiction and the specific judgment comply with U.S. constitutional standards and Section 230 of the Communications Act. It also bars federal, state, and local government officials from assisting foreign governments in enforcing such laws against U.S. persons and prevents the extradition of individuals for speech protected domestically. Additionally, the legislation grants affected individuals a private right of action to seek damages and requires the Attorney General to submit annual reports on foreign censorship impacts while directing the Federal Trade Commission to maintain a database of targeted speech instances.

The Strengthening Coast Guard Communities Act of 2026 grants the Commandant of the Coast Guard the authority to enter into intergovernmental support agreements on behalf of the department in which the service is operating.

HR 10307: Anaktuvuk Pass Food Security Access Act

The Anaktuvuk Pass Food Security Access Act amends the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act to allow local residents of Anaktuvuk Pass to use snowmobiles, motorboats, and various off-road vehicles for subsistence purposes. This change overrides existing restrictions that generally prohibit such vehicle use on federal lands in the area. The bill directly affects residents who rely on these modes of transportation to hunt, fish, or gather food. It also specifies that certain other provisions regarding land management do not apply to these authorized subsistence activities.

HR 10212: PEPTIDES for Veterans Act

The PEPTIDES for Veterans Act directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to review existing federal regulations regarding peptides and submit a report within 180 days that establishes specific definitions for peptides and peptide-based therapies. Following this initial review, the Department must conduct an 18-month study on the safety and efficacy of these treatments for veterans, focusing on conditions such as chronic pain, mental health, and rehabilitation needs. If the study concludes that these therapies should be made available, the Secretary is required to launch a pilot program lasting up to five years to evaluate their effectiveness in real-world clinical settings. The bill ultimately aims to determine whether peptide-based therapies can be integrated into standard care for veterans based on the findings from the mandated research and pilot evaluation.

HR 9501: AI Tax Integrity Act of 2026

The AI Tax Integrity Act of 2026 directs the Treasury Department to launch a pilot program using artificial intelligence to detect tax fraud, identity theft, and errors in returns prepared by third parties. This initiative is designed to target individual and business taxpayers who may file inaccurate returns, with the program running for a minimum of 18 months and a maximum of two years. Upon completion, the Comptroller General must submit a report detailing the amount of improper refunds recovered, the total government recovery, and the accuracy of the AI tools used during the pilot.

HR 9203: Student Protection and University Accountability Act

The Student Protection and University Accountability Act requires colleges receiving federal funds to establish clear, public processes for investigating discrimination complaints based on race, color, or national origin. Under this bill, universities must designate a compliance officer, provide detailed explanations for their investigative decisions, and notify complainants of outcomes within 30 days. The law also mandates that schools display federal anti-discrimination materials on campus and makes them ineligible for funding if they fail to comply with these requirements for two consecutive years. Additionally, the bill directs the Department of Education to report monthly on discrimination complaints to Congress and prohibits the agency from dismissing or delaying investigations when similar claims are filed elsewhere.

HR 9098: Congressional Records Protection Act of 2026

This bill, known as the Congressional Records Protection Act, aims to shield the personal and official communications of Members of Congress and their employees from government searches and subpoenas. It directly affects federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies by prohibiting them from obtaining records related to these individuals unless the person is the specific target of a criminal investigation. Under the new rules, agencies must notify the affected Member or employee before searching their records, except in urgent cases where notice could endanger lives or destroy evidence. Additionally, any materials found during a search that belong to a protected individual cannot be reviewed for 30 days to ensure they are not accessed without proper oversight.

HR 8781: Title IX Clarification Act of 2026

The Title IX Clarification Act of 2026 amends federal education law to explicitly define the terms "sex," "female," and "male" based on biological characteristics. Specifically, it states that "sex" refers to an individual's biologically determined status as male or female, while "female" and "male" are defined by the presence of specific reproductive systems capable of producing ova or sperm, respectively. These definitions apply to all education programs and activities that receive federal financial assistance starting on the date the bill becomes law. The legislation aims to clarify existing statutes by removing ambiguity around biological sex definitions in the context of Title IX protections.

HR 7972: Taxpayer Workforce Modernization Act

This bill establishes a fellowship program within the Internal Revenue Service to recruit private sector data scientists for a specialized task force aimed at improving tax administration. The program would hire at least 10 fellows on multi-year contracts to work on complex tax cases, develop data-driven audit methods, and train IRS staff in advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. Fellows would receive competitive pay comparable to senior government positions and could be permanently hired after their terms, while the IRS Commissioner must submit annual reports to Congress on the program's effectiveness and costs. The initiative focuses on using data analysis to enhance audit selection, detect offshore tax evasion, and improve overall tax collection efficiency.

HR 5634: Veterans Flight Training Responsibility Act of 2026

This bill limits the amount of Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits available for flight training at public colleges and universities. It sets a $100,000 maximum total benefit for such training (adjusted annually for inflation), affecting veterans pursuing flight programs at public institutions. The inflation adjustment uses the Consumer Price Index, increasing the cap each year based on prior cost-of-living changes. The limit applies only to veterans starting flight training on or after August 1, 2026. This is a direct change to benefit eligibility under the VA's education program.

HR 5267: American Franchise Act

HR 5267, the American Franchise Act, clarifies when franchisors can be considered joint employers of franchisee employees under federal labor laws. It defines "substantial direct and immediate control" over essential employment terms like wages, benefits, hours, hiring, and discipline - requiring franchisors to actively set these terms to be deemed joint employers. The bill explicitly excludes routine brand standards, training, or minimal safety requirements from constituting such control. This directly affects franchisors and franchisees by limiting joint employer liability to cases where franchisors exert significant, ongoing influence over core employment decisions. The law applies prospectively to new cases after enactment, not past disputes.
