Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Condemning Beijing's destruction of Hong Kong's democracy and rule of law.
The bill increases U.S. leverage to punish rights abuses and curb sanctions evasion in Hong Kong—helping dissidents and U.S. national security—but risks economic disruption and heightened diplomatic conflict with China that could hurt trade and complicate international cooperation.
Expressing the sense of the Senate regarding United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 (XXVI) and the harmful conflation of China's "One China Principle" and the United States'"One China Policy".
The resolution seeks to defend Taiwan's ability to engage internationally and increase transparency about PRC practices, trading off a greater chance of diplomatic friction and slower multilateral progress that could affect U.S. trade and cooperation.
Calling on the United Kingdom, France, and Germany (E3) to initiate the snapback of sanctions on Iran under United Nations Security Council Resolution 2231 (2015).
The resolution strengthens U.S. and allied enforcement options and clarifies timelines to address Iran's nuclear activities, but doing so risks regional escalation, economic costs, and a compressed policymaking timeline ahead of the Oct 2025 UNSCR 2231 expiration.
Requesting information on Israel's human rights practices pursuant to section 502B(c) of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961.
The resolution increases transparency and could mobilize humanitarian aid and legal accountability for civilian harm in Lebanon, but it risks straining U.S.–Israel relations and constraining U.S. operational flexibility through congressional or diplomatic fallout.
Condemning the People's Republic of China's Ethnic Unity and Progress Law, concerned with its implications on the rights and freedoms, as well as survival of the identity, of Tibetans, Uyghurs, Mongolians, and other affected communities, and calling on the Government of the People's Republic of China to end its abuses and campaigns of transnational repression that undermine United States sovereignty and threaten the safety and freedoms of people in the United States.
The resolution strengthens U.S. political and enforcement tools to call out and press back against PRC repression—bolstering human-rights support for affected minorities—but does so mainly through symbolism and pressure that could strain U.S.-China cooperation and carry economic and diplomatic costs without delivering immediate protections to diaspora communities.
Celebrating the historic anniversary of the June 24, 2022, decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization.
This non-binding resolution politically supports state abortion restrictions and those who oppose abortion—potentially bolstering enforcement and increasing legal risks for providers and reducing access for people seeking abortions—while itself creating no enforceable legal changes and mainly intensifying partisan divisions.
Celebrating the accomplishments of title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, also known as the Patsy Takemoto Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act, and recognizing the need to continue pursuing the goal of educational opportunities for all women and girls.
The resolution affirms and strengthens federal Title IX protections and enforcement capacity to protect students (including LGBTQ+ students and women/girls) while risking increased federal spending, legal challenges, and heightened partisan conflict that could delay clarity and implementation.
Prohibiting the buying or selling of certain investments by Senators.
The bill trades away Senators' ability to hold and trade stocks and cryptocurrency to reduce conflicts of interest and insider‑trading risk and boost public trust, at the cost of limiting lawmakers' financial freedom, encouraging workarounds that require oversight, and possibly deterring experienced candidates from public service.
Reaffirming the importance of the United States promoting the safety, health, and well-being of refugees and displaced persons in the United States and around the world.
The bill strengthens legal protections and increases funding for refugee resettlement—benefiting vulnerable newcomers, local economies, and U.S. humanitarian goals—while imposing higher federal costs and creating political and short-term logistical challenges for communities and agencies.
Condemning the Department of Justice and Internal Revenue Service settlement agreement in Trump v. Internal Revenue Service, under which $1,776,000,000 in taxpayer money may be used to financially benefit individuals who assaulted law enforcement officers on January 6, 2021, and President Trump, his family, and his political allies.
The measure could save taxpayers litigation costs by enabling a large settlement, but it authorizes a major, opaque payout and procedures that risk politicizing prosecutions, weakening accountability, potentially benefiting attackers, and leaving victims dependent on an uncertain fund.
Expressing the sense of the Senate that over 25 years of real-world evidence and hundreds of peer-reviewed studies proving that mifepristone is safe and effective should be respected, and law and policy governing access to lifesaving, time-sensitive medication abortion care in the United States should be equitable, transparent, and based on the best available peer-reviewed evidence-based science.
The resolution supports broader, evidence-based access to mifepristone via mail and telehealth—reducing cost and access barriers for many pregnant people—but risks political and legal backlash and creates privacy concerns for vulnerable individuals, producing trade-offs between expanded access and potential regulatory, legal, and safety complications.
Expressing the sense of the Senate regarding critical elements of the United States policy towards the People's Republic of China.
The resolution strengthens the factual and diplomatic basis for tougher measures against PRC influence in precursor chemicals and standards—potentially boosting U.S. security and competitiveness—but risks escalating tensions and economic fallout that could hurt consumers, businesses, and transnational law enforcement cooperation.
Supporting the United States dollar as the reserve currency of the world and combating the economic influence of the People's Republic of China.
The resolution strengthens U.S. scrutiny and policy leverage against PRC efforts to internationalize the yuan and opaque lending practices—potentially improving financial stability and debt transparency—while risking higher compliance costs, market friction for U.S. businesses and households, and strains on multilateral cooperation.
Expressing the sense of the Senate in support of general elections in Venezuela.
The resolution increases U.S. support and diplomatic pressure for democratic change in Venezuela to bolster regional stability, while risking heightened geopolitical tensions and reduced diplomatic/humanitarian engagement options.
Expressing concern about the increasing influence of the People's Republic of China in Latin America and the Caribbean and calling for strengthened United States economic, security, and diplomatic engagement in the region.
The resolution increases U.S. awareness of and potential responses to PRC influence in Latin America—supporting targeted security and economic measures—while risking diplomatic friction with local governments and limiting some academic and cultural exchanges.
Expressing the sense of the Senate by condemning the handling of the 2019 Ukraine Whistleblower Complaint, calling for the Department of Justice to initiate an investigation and prosecution of the matter, and declaring the impeachment of President Donald J. Trump by the House of Representatives lacks legitimacy.
The resolution seeks increased oversight and transparency about handling whistleblower complaints, but risks politicizing investigations and deterring future whistleblowers through reputational harm and partisan framing.
Expressing the sense of the Senate that the United States shall not deploy United States military assets or personnel to Gaza for purposes of "taking over" Gaza.
The resolution emphasizes congressional oversight and diplomatic approaches to avoid costly U.S. ground operations in Gaza—saving taxpayer dollars and promoting self‑determination—while risking reduced rapid military flexibility and greater friction with allies and domestic politics.
Expressing the sense of the Senate that the President should prioritize securing the release of Pastor Jin Mingri, Pastor Gao Quanfu and his wife Pang Yu, Dr. Gulshan Abbas, and Jimmy Lai detained by the People's Republic of China during future engagements with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The resolution increases targeted U.S. diplomatic pressure and consular support to free detained individuals and aid their families, at the risk of Chinese retaliation and reduced flexibility in broader U.S.–China negotiations.
Expressing the sense of Congress that the United States should prioritize bilateral security partnerships over multilateral security partnerships and institutions.
The resolution prioritizes bilateral flexibility and possible short-term cost savings for the U.S., but risks weakening multilateral cooperation, reducing U.S. influence, and increasing long-term security and diplomatic costs.
Supporting the goals and ideals of the 2026 Day of Silence in bringing attention to anti-LGBTQI+ bullying, harassment, discrimination, and other forms of victimization faced by individuals in schools, and calling on communities across the country to take action to demand equal educational opportunity, basic civil rights protections, and freedom from erasure for all students, particularly LGBTQI+ young people, in K-12 schools.
The resolution signals federal support for protecting and affirming LGBTQI+ students—likely improving wellbeing and school climate—but is nonbinding and may provoke state-level pushback and increased polarization without creating immediate enforceable protections.
Designating March 12, 2026, as "Detransition Awareness Day".
The resolution increases scrutiny and safeguards around gender‑related medical interventions for minors—potentially reducing irreversible treatments and prompting more mental‑health evaluation—but also risks restricting access to gender‑affirming care, stigmatizing transgender youth, and imposing legal/regulatory burdens based on contested data.
Expressing the sense of the Senate that the law enforcement agents and other personnel of the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security, who have been temporarily engaging in civil immigration enforcement operations, should be returned to their primary missions during periods of active hostility with Iran.
The resolution raises public awareness and congressional scrutiny of diminished counterterrorism capacity, but it also highlights staffing reallocations and leadership changes that likely weaken operational prevention, increasing security risks and eroding confidence.
Expressing the sense of the Senate that Ghislaine Maxwell should not be granted a Presidential pardon or any form of clemency for her crimes with Jeffrey Epstein relating to the sexual exploitation and abuse of minors.
The bill reaffirms accountability in a high-profile trafficking case and aims to bolster public confidence, but it risks politicizing that case and causing renewed distress and uncertainty for victims.
Denouncing statements by President Donald J. Trump that he may "nationalize," commandeer, or otherwise assume direct control over elections.
The resolution emphasizes and defends state and local control of elections and limits on presidential authority to protect election administration and public confidence, but it is non‑binding and may offer limited practical protections while risking perceptions of partisanship.
Recognizing that it is the duty of the Federal Government to develop and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights to protect and codify the rights of transgender and nonbinary people under the law and ensure their access to medical care, shelter, safety, and economic security.
The resolution strengthens the federal record that gender‑affirming care and transgender/nonbinary people are protected under sex‑discrimination law and reflects medical consensus—potentially improving access and provider confidence—while being nonbinding (a preamble), so it creates no immediate enforceable rights and may spur political backlash and compliance disputes.
Condemning and calling for the reversal of President Trump's decision to allow the export of advanced artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates, despite significant risks to national security and just months after the United Arab Emirates signed a secret $500,000,000 deal to buy close to a majority stake in the Trump family crypto company World Liberty Financial.
The resolution increases scrutiny and potential safeguards to protect U.S. national security and promote transparency, but those steps risk economic harm to tech firms, higher compliance burdens, and greater political polarization.
Expressing the sense of the Senate in support of Operation Absolute Resolve.
The resolution strengthens U.S. legal grounds for sanctions and prosecutions against the Maduro regime and transnational criminal networks, improving enforcement and border planning but risking higher defense costs, diplomatic escalation, and complications for humanitarian and reconstruction efforts.
Commending the United States military action in Venezuela.
The resolution highlights a U.S. operation that achieved law‑enforcement goals without U.S. casualties and enabled prosecution, but it trades that outcome against elevated risks of regional escalation, constitutional war‑powers and oversight concerns, and diplomatic/legal fallout.
Expressing that any attempt by foreign entities to censor or penalize constitutionally protected speech of United States persons shall be opposed.
The resolution strengthens statutory protections for speech and treats social media as public forums—bolstering legal defenses against platform censorship—while risking diplomatic friction, higher compliance/moderation costs, and reduced cross-border content-safety cooperation.
Recognizing that climate change is real.
The resolution affirms Congress’ acceptance of the scientific consensus on fossil-fuel-driven climate change and helps legitimize future policy action, but it is purely symbolic and provides no direct funding, requirements, or protections for people currently harmed by climate change.
