Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene

Maddy summaryThis bill would prohibit the FDA from approving new abortion medications or investigational uses of existing ones. It would restrict currently approved abortion drugs to in-person administration only in clinics, hospitals, or medical offices by certified providers who can handle complications like ectopic pregnancy or severe bleeding. The law requires detailed adverse event reporting (excluding patient identifiers) to the FDA by both manufacturers and prescribers, and mandates provider certification covering pregnancy assessment, surgical intervention capabilities, and patient safety documentation. These provisions apply directly to healthcare providers, patients seeking medication abortions, and manufacturers of abortion drugs.

Preventing Extreme Negligence with Classified Information Licenses Resolution or the PENCIL Resolution This resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that Representative Adam Schiff should not have access to classified information and should be investigated by the Committee on Ethics for actions taken in an attempt to tarnish the reputation of former President Donald Trump. The resolution further expresses the sense that comments made by Representative Adam Schiff during any congressional proceeding that addressed collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign should be struck from the record.

Maddy summaryHR 570, the CRT Act, prohibits federal funding for elementary, secondary, and higher education institutions that promote specific race-based theories. It bans schools from using federal funds if they teach or require students to adopt beliefs such as "any race is inherently superior," the U.S. being "fundamentally racist," or individuals bearing racial responsibility for others' actions. The bill includes key exceptions: it protects outside speech, allows research access to prohibited materials, and permits teaching about these theories in educational contexts without endorsing them. The law directly affects schools receiving federal education funds, not individual students or teachers.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits all federal funding from being provided to EcoHealth Alliance, Inc. and its directly controlled subsidiaries, related organizations, or subgranted entities. It directly affects EcoHealth Alliance by cutting its access to federal grants, contracts, or other funding sources. The bill also requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study and report on all federal funds provided to EcoHealth Alliance - whether intentionally or accidentally - to Chinese entities like the Wuhan Institute of Virology or the Chinese Communist Party, during the prior decade. The report must detail these funds and include any related agreements involving foreign entities. The bill focuses on restricting funding flows and requiring transparency, not on policy outcomes or advocacy.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires healthcare providers to give the same medical care to infants born alive during abortions as they would to any newborn, and to immediately admit such infants to a hospital. It mandates reporting of non-compliance to law enforcement and imposes penalties including up to 5 years in prison for violations. Women who undergo abortions can file civil lawsuits seeking money damages for injuries, three times the abortion cost, and punitive damages if care standards are not met. The bill also clarifies that abortion includes intentionally killing an unborn child or terminating pregnancy without specific exceptions (e.g., after viability to preserve life or removing a dead fetus).

Maddy summaryHR 22, the *Protecting America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve from China Act*, blocks the U.S. government from selling petroleum from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to entities under Chinese Communist Party control or unless sellers guarantee the oil won’t be exported to China. It directly affects the Department of Energy’s management of the reserve and any foreign entities seeking to purchase reserve petroleum. The key mechanism requires the Secretary of Energy to prohibit sales to China-linked entities or impose strict export restrictions on any sale. This policy change aims to prevent strategic petroleum resources from reaching entities tied to China’s government.

Maddy summaryHR 486 prohibits the District of Columbia government from using any federal funds to allow non-citizen individuals to vote in local elections. The bill requires DC to certify in writing that it does not permit non-citizen voting when applying for or receiving federal funds. This applies to all federal funds provided to DC on or after the bill's introduction date. The law directly affects DC's ability to fund election administration with federal resources if non-citizen voting is permitted.

Maddy summaryHCONRES 3 is a non-binding congressional resolution expressing support for pro-life facilities, groups, and churches targeted by vandalism and threats following the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision. It condemns specific incidents like graffiti, window-smashing, and arson at pregnancy centers and churches (e.g., in Frederick, MD, and Portland, OR), while recognizing the role of these organizations in supporting pregnant women. The resolution calls on the Biden Administration to use law enforcement to protect these facilities but does not create new laws or policies. As a symbolic measure, it has no legal effect on the incidents described.

Life at Conception Act This bill declares that the right to life guaranteed by the Constitution is vested in each human being at all stages of life, including the moment of fertilization, cloning, or other moment at which an individual comes into being. Nothing in this bill shall be construed to authorize the prosecution of any woman for the death of her unborn child.

Standardizing Thresholds Of Penalties for Fentanyl Act or the STOP Fentanyl Act This bill reduces the drug quantity thresholds that trigger a mandatory minimum prison term for a defendant who manufactures, distributes, imports, exports, or possesses with intent to distribute fentanyl. The bill also creates enhanced criminal penalties for certain violations involving fentanyl that was imported along the U.S.-Mexico border. Specifically, the bill reduces from 400 to 5 grams the fentanyl quantity and from 100 to 0.05 grams the fentanyl analogue quantity that trigger a mandatory minimum prison term for high-level first-time or repeat offenders. It also reduces from 40 to 0.5 grams the fentanyl quantity and from 10 to 0.005 grams the fentanyl analogue quantity that trigger a mandatory minimum prison term for low-level first-time or repeat offenders. Additionally, the bill creates enhanced mandatory minimum prison terms for importing or exporting fentanyl that was imported along the U.S.-Mexico border.
