Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Count the Crimes to Cut Act
The bill improves transparency and oversight of federal criminal law for the public, businesses, and policymakers, but it does so without new funding and creates administrative and privacy risks for agencies and individuals.
Authorizing the use of the Capitol Grounds for the National Peace Officers' Memorial Service and the National Honor Guard and Pipe Band Exhibition.
The bill authorizes a high‑profile, free national memorial on the Capitol Grounds that gives law‑enforcement families and the public a formal tribute and clearer event rules, but it shifts costs and legal risk onto sponsors and taxpayers and creates potential access, free‑speech, and logistical constraints.
Make technical corrections to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026.
The bill raises the bar and clarifies statutory requirements for military judge advocates—improving legal representation—while making only technical changes that may cause minor recognition issues for a veteran and short-term administrative confusion.
ROTOR Act
The bill boosts aviation safety, oversight, and FAA–DoD coordination by expanding ADS‑B requirements, audits, and data sharing, but does so at significant cost and with real risks to operational flexibility, privacy/security, and legal adaptability.
Bankruptcy Administration Improvement Act of 2025
The bill secures more predictable, fee-funded support and longer-term stability for bankruptcy courts and trustees—improving operations and trustee pay—at the cost of shifting how filing fees are allocated, raising the risk of higher costs for filers, reduced flexibility in funding as caseloads change, and added administrative and legal complexity.
No Tax Dollars for Terrorists Act
The bill increases U.S. leverage, oversight, and protections for women and minorities by conditioning engagement and requiring reporting, but it risks disrupting humanitarian assistance, reducing diplomatic flexibility, exposing operational risks, and imposing administrative and potential fiscal costs.
Financial Services and General Government and National Security, Department of State, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2026
The bill increases transparency and funds a wide array of national-security, foreign‑aid, and global‑health programs while imposing large mandated spending floors and many procedural limits that raise taxpayer costs, add administrative burdens, and reduce agency and diplomatic flexibility.
Remote Access Security Act
The bill strengthens national security and clarifies government authority over remote access to controlled technologies while increasing compliance costs, legal risk, and the potential for operational disruption or slower rulemaking that could dilute or delay protections.
Breaking the Gridlock Act
The bill advances consumer privacy protections, oversight, and targeted supports (notably for veterans and local fire response) and strengthens some procurement and foreign‑policy efforts, but does so while adding new reporting and administrative requirements and exposing taxpayers to increased, often open‑ended federal spending and compliance costs.
Foundation of the Federal Bar Association Charter Amendments Act of 2025
The bill clarifies and centralizes corporate governance and financial safeguards for a nonprofit corporation—strengthening internal controls and limiting partisan use of assets—while shifting important protections and operational rules into board-controlled bylaws, which reduces statutory transparency and external oversight.
Enduring Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act
The bill raises $5,000 assessments on non-indigent federal defendants to increase funds for courts and victim programs and shift costs from the public to convicted individuals, but it imposes significant financial burdens on defendants—especially middle-income people—and creates administrative costs that may reduce net revenue.
Epstein Files Transparency Act
The bill increases public and congressional transparency about DOJ handling of Epstein‑related records and declassification decisions—boosting accountability—but creates tradeoffs in privacy protection, DOJ workload, and the risk of revealing information that could harm prosecutions or national‑security operations.
Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026
This bill secures funding continuity and expands targeted services (notably for veterans, health care access, and rural programs) for early FY2026 while trading off higher federal outlays, weakened budget enforcement and oversight, program rescissions, and added constraints and administrative burdens on agencies.
Strengthening Support for American Manufacturing Act
The bill sharpens federal focus, oversight, and targeted support for critical supply chains and manufacturing—improving coordination and resilience—while risking broader federal intervention, added compliance burdens, and potential taxpayer and implementation costs.
Improve the safety and security of Members of Congress, immediate family members of Members of Congress, and congressional staff.
The bill strengthens privacy protections for Members, designated congressional employees, and their families by enabling fast removals, restricting data-brokering, and creating an enforcement route, but it also raises compliance costs, legal uncertainty, and potential chilling effects on journalism and public records use.
Streamlining Procurement for Effective Execution and Delivery and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026
The bill substantially strengthens U.S. military readiness, industrial capacity, health protections, and oversight through new funding, procurement authorities, and reporting — but at the cost of higher taxpayer spending, large administrative burdens, tighter limits on foreign collaboration and researcher freedoms, and several privacy/environmental tradeoffs that could slow operations or raise long‑term liabilities.
District of Columbia Judicial Nominations Reform Act of 2025
The bill centralizes D.C. judicial nominations with the President, clarifying who appoints judges but reducing local input and raising risks of politicized selections and transitional uncertainty.
D. C. Criminal Reforms to Immediately Make Everyone Safe Act of 2025
The bill focuses juvenile rehabilitative resources and legal protections on those 18 and under while increasing transparency through centralized, machine-readable juvenile justice data and preserving existing D.C. sentences—trading expanded oversight and targeted services for younger teens against reduced protections for 19–24-year-olds and new privacy, administrative, and local-governance risks.
Mental Health in Aviation Act of 2025
The bill aims to improve aviation safety by encouraging treatment, expanding examiner capacity, and speeding certification with more stakeholder input and oversight—but it shifts taxpayer funds, risks added evaluations/groundings and administrative costs, and could create privacy, consistency, or safety tradeoffs if implementation and oversight are imperfect.
Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2025
The bill strengthens Coast Guard capacity, personnel support, maritime safety, and victim protections while increasing federal spending, adding significant administrative and procurement constraints, and introducing privacy, legal, and readiness tradeoffs that must be managed.
National Manufacturing Advisory Council Act
Creates a recurring federal manufacturing advisory council to strengthen training, supply‑chain resilience, and targeted recovery efforts, but it lacks dedicated funding, has a five‑year sunset, and includes industry representation and discretionary information sharing that could limit effectiveness and transparency.
Condemning the attacks on Minnesota lawmakers in Brooklyn Park and Champlin, Minnesota and calling for unity and the rejection of political violence in Minnesota and across the United States.
Strategic Ports Reporting Act
Strengthening the Quad Act
The bill strengthens U.S. diplomatic, security, and economic coordination with Quad partners—improving crisis response and offering alternatives to predatory financing in the Indo‑Pacific—at the cost of higher federal spending, added administrative commitments, and the risk of geopolitical backlash and ethical challenges.
EARA
The bill speeds finality and judicial review for DOI appeals—giving businesses, state/local governments, and tribal parties quicker relief and immediate options for pending cases—but raises the likelihood of more litigation and legal costs and puts pressure on agency capacity and decision quality.
South Pacific Tuna Treaty Act of 2025
The bill centralizes clearer enforcement and administrative flexibility to improve fisheries management and safety, but it does so by expanding agency discretion and confidentiality while increasing compliance burdens and creating legal uncertainty for some landowners and fishery participants.
Falun Gong Protection Act
MEGOBARI Act
NORRA of 2025
The bill centralizes and accelerates statewide challenges to federal actions—improving uniformity and finality for states while making it harder for individuals and local parties to obtain fast, local nationwide injunctions and risking longer, more strategic litigation.
Establishing the congressional budget for the United States Government for fiscal year 2025 and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2026 through 2034.
The resolution creates a detailed, multi-year fiscal and procedural roadmap aimed at achieving large deficit reductions and stronger defense funding, at the cost of concentrating procedural power in budget chairs and significant risk of cuts to mandatory social programs, constrained flexibility, and weaker regulatory safeguards.
