Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene

Protecting Kids from Candy-Flavored Drugs Act This bill establishes enhanced criminal penalties for certain federal drug offenses involving the manufacture or distribution of candy-flavored controlled substances or similar products for minors. Specifically, the bill imposes enhanced criminal penalties for a federal drug offense that involves manufacturing, creating, distributing, dispensing, or possessing with intent to distribute a controlled substance listed in schedule I or II that is combined with a candy or drink, marketed to appear similar to a candy or drink, or modified by flavoring or coloring to appear similar to a candy or drink. To be subject to an enhanced penalty, the individual must have knowledge or reasonable cause to believe that the controlled substance will be distributed, dispensed, or sold to an individual who is under 18 years of age.

Protect Children's Innocence Act This bill places restrictions on the provision of gender affirming care. Gender affirming care includes performing surgery, administering medication, or performing other procedures for the purpose of changing the body of an individual to correspond to a sex that differs from the individual's biological sex. Specifically, the bill makes it a felony to perform any gender affirming care on a minor and it permits a minor on whom such care is performed to bring a civil action against each individual who provided the care. Additionally, the bill prohibits the use of federal funds for gender affirming care or for health insurance that covers such care. Such care may not be provided in a federal health care facility or by a federal employee. The bill also prohibits qualified health plans from including coverage for gender affirming care. Further, plans that include coverage for such care are not eligible for federal subsidies. Finally, the bill prohibits institutions of higher education from offering instruction in gender affirming care. It also makes any non-U.S. national ( alien under federal law) who performs gender affirming care on a minor deportable and inadmissible to the United States. The restrictions under this bill do not apply to the provision of care under certain circumstances such as when an individual does not have normal sex chromosome structure, sex steroid hormone production, or sex steroid hormone action.

Promoting Free and Fair Elections Act This bill prohibits federal agencies from using funds made available for salaries and expenses to solicit or enter into agreements with nongovernmental organizations to conduct voter registration or voter mobilization activities on the agency's property or website. The bill also requires federal agencies to delay carrying out certain activities pursuant to Executive Order 14019 (which established requirements for expanding access to voter registration and election information) until various conditions are met, such as the agency submitting reports to Congress.

Maddy summaryHR 8196, the "Protecting Mothers and Babies from Terrorism Act," designates the groups Jane’s Revenge and Ruth Sent Us as domestic terrorists under existing law (18 U.S.C. §2331), based on their claimed responsibility for vandalism and arson targeting pregnancy centers and related facilities in 2022. The bill does not create new protections for mothers or babies but formally classifies the conduct described in its findings as domestic terrorism. It directly affects the legal status of these groups under federal terrorism statutes. The bill’s sole action is this designation, using current definitions without introducing new policy changes.

Fourth Amendment Restoration Act This bill limits surveillance conducted for foreign intelligence purposes. Specifically, the bill repeals provisions authorizing without a court order various types of searches and surveillance for foreign intelligence purposes, including electronic surveillance and access to business records. An officer of the U.S. government must obtain a warrant for certain search and surveillance activities against a U.S. citizen, including (1) conducting electronic surveillance, (2) conducting physical searches of property under a U.S. citizen's exclusive control, or (3) targeting a U.S. citizen to acquire foreign intelligence information. The bill provides for criminal penalties for a person who knowingly violates these requirements or otherwise obtains such information under color of law without statutory authorization. Information about a U.S. citizen acquired under Executive Order 12333 (relating to intelligence gathering) or during surveillance of a non-U.S. citizen shall not be used against the U.S. citizen in any civil, criminal, or administrative proceeding or investigation.

This bill nullifies the executive order that was published on March 10, 2021, and established requirements for expanding access to voter registration and election information.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits federal funding for any activities related to Executive Order 14074 (issued May 25, 2022), which aimed to improve policing and criminal justice practices. It directly affects federal agencies that would otherwise implement the executive order's requirements using taxpayer dollars. The key provision blocks all federal funds from being used to carry out the order's provisions, effectively halting its implementation through budgetary means. The bill does not alter the executive order itself but prevents its federal financial support.

Maddy summaryHR 7415 would repeal the 1990 Gun-Free School Zones Act, which prohibited firearms within 1,000 feet of school grounds. It removes specific references to school zones from federal gun law provisions in Title 18 of the U.S. Code. This change would eliminate the federal prohibition on firearms in designated school zones, altering the scope of existing gun law enforcement. The bill does not create new safety measures but modifies how federal gun laws apply to school areas.

No Backdoor Gun Control Act of 2022 This bill removes the category of any other weapon from the definition of firearm under the National Firearms Act. The bill treats persons who acquire or possess any other weapon as meeting registration or licensing requirements under the National Firearms Act. The bill requires the Department of Justice to destroy any records relating to the registration of any other weapon not later than one year after the enactment of this bill.

No Taxpayer Funds for Illegal Immigrants Act This bill prohibits using federal funds pursuant to a federal contract, grant, loan, or cooperative agreement for any organization that provides legal representation or legal orientation for non-U.S. nationals ( aliens under federal law) who are unlawfully present in the United States and are placed in removal proceedings. The bill also prohibits using any federal funds for the Legal Access at the Border program, any successor programs, or federal solicitations for commercial products or services related to such programs.
