Maddy summaryThe Patients Before Monopolies Act aims to break up large health care companies that currently own both insurance or pharmacy benefit management services and physical pharmacies. It directly affects major health care conglomerates by making it illegal for them to own pharmacies while also managing drug pricing or insurance, requiring them to sell off their pharmacy operations within one year. The bill empowers federal agencies like the FTC and the Department of Justice to enforce these rules, impose financial penalties for non-compliance, and block future mergers that would recreate these conflicts of interest.

This resolution expresses support for police officers and other law enforcement personnel. The resolution further recognizes law enforcement officers across the United States in the pursuit of preserving safe and secure communities; the need to ensure that such officers have the equipment, training, and resources necessary to protect their health and safety while they are protecting the public; and the law enforcement community for acts of sacrifice and heroism. The resolution expresses condolences and appreciation to the loved ones of each law enforcement officer who has made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

Maddy summaryHRES 64 is a non-binding House resolution affirming the U.S.-South Korea alliance. It highlights historical ties (dating to 1882), economic partnerships (including 2023 trade data), and security cooperation (like the 1953 Mutual Defense Treaty), while celebrating Korean American contributions to U.S. society. The resolution formally supports strengthening security, economic, and cultural ties between the two nations and notes the 2025 anniversary of Korean liberation. It does not create new laws or funding, but serves as a symbolic statement of congressional support for the alliance.

Maddy summaryThe Connected Vehicle Security Act of 2026 restricts the importation, sale, and manufacture of vehicles and related technology from specific countries, including China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, to address national security concerns. The law defines prohibited items as connected vehicles, their software, and hardware components and sets different effective dates, with vehicle bans starting in 2027 and hardware restrictions beginning in 2030. A government official can grant exceptions for specific items after reviewing security risks and notifying Congress, while the agency must publish annual reports on enforcement actions and compliance.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires Medicaid to cover diagnostic and supplemental breast examinations without charging patients any copayments or deductibles. It defines these exams based on national medical guidelines, covering tests like mammograms, MRIs, and ultrasounds for both evaluating abnormalities and screening high-risk individuals. Additionally, the legislation mandates that screening mammography graded as effective by the USPSTF must be included as a required benefit for all Medicaid beneficiaries. These changes will take effect one year after the bill is signed into law.

Maddy summaryThis resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that antisemitic rhetoric from specific online personalities, including Hasan Piker and Candace Owens, is dangerous and contributes to hatred. It urges social media platforms to enforce their policies against hate speech and calls on public officials to condemn such conduct without exception. The bill does not impose new laws or penalties but instead highlights specific instances of alleged hate speech to emphasize the need for responsibility among influencers and technology companies.

Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the Stop Subsidizing Private Jets of 2026, prevents taxpayers from deducting expenses related to private fixed-wing aircraft on their federal income tax returns. It directly affects individuals and businesses that purchase, maintain, or operate personal planes, effectively removing the tax benefit previously available for these costs. The law allows deductions only for specific exceptions, such as aircraft used for property transport, agriculture, firefighting, emergency medical services, or commercial activities like flight instruction and sightseeing tours. These changes will apply to any expenses incurred after December 31, 2025.

Maddy summaryThis bill temporarily suspends a portion of the federal fuel excise tax when the national average price of gasoline rises above $3.99 per gallon. Instead of reducing government revenue, the money saved from this tax cut is transferred back into the Highway Trust Fund and the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund. Additionally, the legislation disallows certain tax credits and deductions for oil and gas companies for costs incurred or production occurring during these high-price months. These changes would only take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025.

This bill designates the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 189 East Main Street in Xenia, Ohio, as the "Gilman 'Gil' Whitney Post Office Building".

Maddy summaryThis bill modifies state unemployment programs to help job seekers start businesses. It removes the requirement that participants must first exhaust regular unemployment benefits before accessing self-employment assistance. States must now approve business plans or require entrepreneurial training/counseling for participants, who must also certify weekly participation. The bill also raises the cap on program participants from 5% to 10% of unemployed individuals. These changes aim to expand access to business ownership support through state unemployment systems.
