Maddy summaryThis bill amends the Social Security Act to increase Medicaid payment limits for the Northern Mariana Islands. It directly affects the Northern Mariana Islands' Medicaid program by setting its 2026 payment amount equal to the amount allocated to American Samoa for that same fiscal year. The key provision modifies Section 1108(g)(2)(D) to add a new clause specifying this alignment for fiscal year 2026. This changes the funding formula for the territory's Medicaid program without creating new benefits or eligibility rules. The adjustment applies only to the payment limit calculation for the Northern Mariana Islands' Medicaid program.

Miracle on Ice Congressional Gold Medal Act This act provides for the award of Congressional Gold Medals to the members of the 1980 U.S. Olympic men's ice hockey team in recognition of the team's achievement at the 1980 Winter Olympic Games.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes the Military-Civilian Medical Surge Program, requiring the Department of Defense (DoD) and Health and Human Services (HHS) to partner with civilian healthcare providers at eight or more strategic U.S. locations (including transport hubs and logistics centers) to rapidly deploy medical support during national emergencies. It directly affects military medical facilities and civilian healthcare systems by enhancing coordination for responding to crises like wars, pandemics, or disasters declared under specific federal laws. Key provisions mandate pre-identified partnerships with hospitals and academic medical centers that demonstrate expertise in high-consequence health threats, and require semiannual coordination meetings between DoD, HHS, and military health agencies. The program aims to strengthen the National Disaster Medical System’s capacity to mobilize civilian medical personnel to support military health operations during emergencies.

Territories Health Equity Act of 2025 This bill alters provisions relating to the treatment of U.S. territories under Medicaid, Medicare, and Medicare Advantage. For example, the bill eliminates Medicaid funding limitations for U.S. territories beginning in FY2026, exempts an individual from late-enrollment penalties for Medicare medical services if the individual resided in Puerto Rico as of the date of eligibility and the individual enrolls within five years of such date, and establishes minimum criteria for certain elements used in Medicare Advantage payment calculations for areas within U.S. territories. The bill also allows residents of U.S. territories who are unable to obtain health insurance through their employer or a health insurance exchange to instead obtain coverage that is at least as broad as the coverage available to Members of Congress and their staff through the District of Columbia exchange.

Maddy summaryHRES 931 is a symbolic resolution expressing congressional support for designating December 4, 2025, as "National Scam Prevention Day." It does not create new laws or policies but formally acknowledges the significant financial and psychological harm caused by scams, citing reported losses of $16.6 billion in 2024 and estimated total losses of $158.3 billion when accounting for underreporting. The resolution highlights concerns about international scam operations and their links to criminal organizations, urging a coordinated government and industry approach to scam awareness. It directly affects no specific group but aims to raise public awareness about scam prevention.

Maddy summaryThis bill creates two federal grant programs to support medical residency training in rural areas. The first program provides grants to eligible organizations (like rural hospitals, health centers, and medical schools) to establish or expand residency programs where doctors train in rural settings for over half their residency time, focusing on primary care, high-need specialties, or maternal health. The second program funds technical assistance grants to help these organizations apply for and run the training programs. The bill authorizes $12.7 million annually from 2026 to 2030, with grants for the training programs lasting up to 3 years and technical assistance grants up to 4 years.

Maddy summaryThe "No Robot Bosses Act" (HR 6371) prevents employers from making final employment decisions (like hiring, firing, or promotions) using automated systems without human oversight. It requires companies with 11+ employees to test these systems for bias against protected groups, explain how they work in plain language to workers, and provide opportunities for workers to dispute automated decisions through human review. The bill creates a new Technology and Worker Protection Division within the Department of Labor to enforce these rules and requires annual public reports on bias testing. It also includes strong whistleblower protections for workers who report violations. The law applies to most employers but excludes certain government entities and labor organizations acting in their representative capacity.

Maddy summaryHR 6407, the RCORP Authorization Act, authorizes $165 million annually (2026-2030) to fund the Rural Communities Opioid Response Program. This program provides grants to states, tribes, rural health offices, and other eligible entities to expand prevention, treatment, and recovery services for opioid and substance use disorders in rural areas. Funds can support planning, evidence-based service models, and coordination with local communities but cannot be used for real property acquisition. The bill directly affects rural communities facing opioid crises and the organizations delivering care through these grants.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a new interagency Task Force to dismantle foreign scam operations targeting Americans, particularly through "pig butchering" scams in Southeast Asia. The Task Force, chaired by the Secretary of State, will coordinate efforts across multiple agencies to shut down scam centers, impose sanctions on perpetrators, and support victims of trafficking. It requires a detailed strategy within 180 days and annual reports to Congress on progress, including sanctions imposed and funds recovered. The bill authorizes $30 million for these efforts in fiscal years 2026-2027, focusing on countries like Cambodia, Laos, and Burma where scam centers operate with forced labor.

Maddy summaryHR 5021, the American Decade of Sports Act, requires the U.S. Department of State to create a formal 5-year strategy (updated every 5 years) for using major international sporting events hosted in the U.S. between 2024 and 2034 - including the 2026 World Cup and 2028 Olympics - to strengthen diplomatic ties and promote U.S. soft power. It mandates renaming the State Department’s sports diplomacy division as the Office of Sports Diplomacy, adding at least 3 dedicated staff members, and coordinating with host cities, sports leagues, and visa agencies to streamline international visitor access. The strategy must detail diplomatic goals, partnerships with local communities and the sports industry, and plans for cultural exchange, while requiring annual progress reports to Congress until 2034. This bill directly affects the State Department, host cities, international athletes, and diplomatic engagement efforts.
