Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Countering China’s Control of the Caucasus Act
The bill provides U.S. policymakers a clearer, multi-year strategy and classified intelligence assessment on Russian and Chinese activity in Georgia—improving security planning and public-facing transparency—at the cost of potential higher taxpayer-funded assistance, constrained public debate over classified findings, and short-term agency resource burdens.
PEACE Act
The bill increases U.S. monitoring, diplomatic coordination, and congressional oversight to combat antisemitism and related abuses in Europe, but it is nonbinding and could strain diplomatic relations and department resources without guaranteeing concrete action.
PROFIT Act of 2026
The bill centralizes and strengthens U.S. diplomatic capacity for space, energy, sanctions, trade, and technology—providing more coordinated support for U.S. firms and national‑security priorities—but does so by creating new bureaucracy and costs, concentrating decisionmaking, and raising oversight, environmental, and local‑autonomy risks.
US-Japan-ROK Trilateral Cooperation Act
The bill strengthens U.S.–Japan–ROK legislative and maritime cooperation to boost regional security, trade, and resilience against disinformation, but its nonbinding nature, likely new appropriations, privacy and conflict‑of‑interest risks, and potential to raise regional tensions limit and complicate its practical benefits.
Enhanced Iran Sanctions Act of 2025
The bill intensifies pressure on Iran’s oil- and petrochemical-driven financing—strengthening U.S. national security and enforcement—while trading off higher economic costs for American consumers and businesses, increased compliance and legal risks, and potential diplomatic and humanitarian side‑imp
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026
The bill boosts oversight, targeted defense and foreign-aid investments, and health and program transparency, but does so by locking funds into many earmarks and reporting mandates that increase administrative costs, reduce executive flexibility, raise near‑term taxpayer obligations, and constrain federal personnel and agency responsiveness.
Commemorating 30 years of diplomatic relations between the United States and Vietnam on July 11, 2025.
The resolution strengthens U.S.–Vietnam ties to boost security, trade, reconciliation, and educational exchange, while posing trade‑offs in potential military entanglement, competitive pressure on some U.S. workers and firms, taxpayer costs, and limits on leverage over human‑rights progress.
Taiwan Assurance Implementation Act
The bill improves the currency, transparency, and congressional oversight of U.S. Taiwan policy through mandatory periodic review and reporting, at the cost of added recurring administrative work and a risk of reduced agility in rapid diplomatic responses.
Honoring the strategic importance of the C5+1 diplomatic platform and recognizing the deepening partnership between the United States and the nations of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.
The resolution strengthens U.S.-Central Asia ties to secure critical minerals, energy supplies, and regional security, while creating modest fiscal exposure and potential reputational risks for U.S. firms working with partners that have governance or human-rights issues.
Congratulating the people of North Macedonia on the 34th anniversary of their independence and celebrating the 30th anniversary of diplomatic relations between North Macedonia and the United States.
The resolution strengthens U.S.–North Macedonia ties and military cooperation to bolster NATO unity and shared Ukraine policy, at the cost of limited direct domestic benefit and a risk of increased tensions with Russia.
PARTNER Act
The bill makes it easier for U.S. diplomats, agencies, and researchers to work with several international organizations by granting immunities and clarifying legal status—speeding cooperation and program delivery—but does so at the cost of reduced legal accountability, broader executive discretion, and potential fiscal and administrative exposure for Americans.
Uyghur Policy Act of 2025
Honoring the deep and enduring friendship between the Kingdom of Denmark and the United States on the occasion of Danish Constitution Day celebrations.
The resolution strengthens U.S.–Denmark/NATO military and economic ties—boosting readiness, defense cooperation, and jobs—while creating trade-offs in higher potential taxpayer costs, greater risk of deeper military commitments, and concerns about foreign influence.
Taiwan Non-Discrimination Act of 2025
The bill aims to strengthen Taiwan's role in IMF processes — potentially improving global financial stability and U.S. economic interests while increasing transparency and targeted flexibility — but it raises the risk of diplomatic friction with China, could constrain U.S. negotiating flexibility, and imposes administrative burdens.
Strengthening the Quad Act
The bill strengthens U.S. coordination with Quad partners to boost regional security, economic cooperation, and congressional oversight, but primarily through nonbinding measures that could increase taxpayer costs, narrow foreign‑policy flexibility, and create governance and ethics risks.
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.
Taiwan International Solidarity Act
The bill clarifies and strengthens U.S. diplomatic support for Taiwan (including more reporting and coordinated multilateral pressure), trading off increased U.S. diplomatic effort and a meaningful risk of heightened U.S.–China tensions and economic or diplomatic costs.
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide special rules for the taxation of certain residents of Taiwan with income from sources within the United States.
The bill would lower withholding and clarify tax rules for Taiwan-linked income—reducing cross-border tax friction and increasing transparency—but does so at the cost of reduced U.S. revenue, added compliance and enforcement burdens, and potential implementation delays.
Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act
The bill strengthens protections and rapid response tools to shield U.S. personnel from ICC actions and to penalize actors cooperating with ICC measures, but does so at the cost of diplomatic friction, reduced international cooperation and victim support, potential civil‑liberties harms, and legal/economic overreach.
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.
Acknowledging the third anniversary of Russia's further invasion of Ukraine and expressing support for the people of Ukraine.
The resolution strengthens U.S. diplomatic support for Ukraine and allied deterrence, at the trade-off of raising expectations for U.S. assistance and risking heightened tensions with Russia that could impose costs on taxpayers.
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.
Expressing the vital importance of the Panama Canal to the United States.
The measure strengthens U.S. scrutiny and legal footing to protect the Panama Canal and U.S. supply chains—improving transparency and defense options—but risks higher taxpayer costs and increased diplomatic or military tensions with Panama and China.
Expressing the opposition of the Senate to the Chinese Communist Party's "stolen valor" historical revisionism with regard to Allied Victory in Asia, commemorating the contributions made by the Republic of China to Allied Victory, and acknowledging the postwar contributions of the Government of Japan to peace and stability in Asia.
The resolution reinforces U.S. alliances and supports historical recognition in education, but does so via rhetoric that could heighten tensions with China and politicize teaching without producing binding policy changes.
Recognizing Nobel Prize winner Maria Corina Machado and reaffirming support for democracy in Venezuela.
The bill affirms U.S. support for democratic accountability in Venezuela and could help refugees and strengthen multilateral election norms, but may increase migration pressures, fiscal costs, and diplomatic friction.
Congratulating President Donald J. Trump for achieving peace in the Middle East.
The resolution affirms diplomatic support and prioritizes evacuation of Americans, but it is non‑binding and contains partisan language that may polarize without delivering legal or material assistance.
Urging the executive branch and leaders of the G7 and the European Union to seize sovereign assets of the Russian Federation under the jurisdiction of members of the G7 and disburse such assets to Ukraine in tranches of not less than $10,000,000,000 United States dollars per month until expended.
The resolution would convert frozen Russian sovereign assets into support for Ukraine and strengthen international accountability, but does so at the risk of legal battles, diplomatic escalation, and economic retaliation that could delay aid and impose costs on taxpayers and businesses.
Recognizing the 74th anniversary of the signing of the Mutual Defense Treaty between the United States and the Philippines and the strong bilateral security alliance between our two nations in the wake of escalating aggression and political lawfare by the People's Republic of China in the South China Sea.
The resolution strengthens U.S.-Philippine defense cooperation to deter regional threats and improve readiness and disaster response, at the cost of higher fiscal commitments, potential strain on U.S.-China relations, and increased local sovereignty and environmental concerns for host communities.
Condemning the treatment of Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu by the Government of Azerbaijan and urging his immediate release.
The resolution increases diplomatic pressure to improve human-rights practices and affirms U.S. values, but risks straining bilateral ties and may have limited immediate legal effect for detainees while potentially reducing cooperation on security and economic projects.
