Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act
The bill increases parental notice and control and provides schools a uniform process, but it risks significant harms to transgender and nonbinary students' privacy, safety, and access to accommodations and creates legal and administrative burdens for school districts.
Protecting Prudent Investment of Retirement Savings Act
The bill tightens fiduciary rules and increases transparency to prioritize pecuniary return and reduce conflicts—benefiting many savers and oversight—while imposing new compliance burdens, limiting default ESG exposure and some engagement tools, and introducing friction for self-directed investors.
Pregnant Students’ Rights Act
The bill increases pregnant students’ awareness of supports and Title IX remedies—helping them stay in school and seek recourse—while imposing administrative costs on institutions, risking notice fatigue, and potentially constraining future improvements to protections.
Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, and Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2026
The bill directs substantial new resources to veterans, rural communities, and military readiness while increasing oversight and targeting supports, but it also creates procurement, procedural, and research restrictions and sizable near‑term spending that could raise costs, slow agency action, and constrain flexibility.
Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2025
This bill strengthens Coast Guard personnel, capabilities, victim support, and oversight while improving maritime safety, but does so at significant fiscal and administrative cost and with privacy, procedural, and operational trade‑offs that could burden personnel, operators, and taxpayers.
Charlotte Woodward Organ Transplant Discrimination Prevention Act
ThinkDIFFERENTLY About Disability Employment Act
The bill expands SBA support to improve employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for people with disabilities and assists small businesses while avoiding new authorized appropriations, but relying on existing budgets risks underfunding, delayed services, and shifted costs onto agencies, states, small businesses, or taxpayers.
Entrepreneurs with Disabilities Reporting Act of 2025
Automotive Support Services to Improve Safe Transportation Act of 2025
The bill preserves short-term pension stability for veterans and clarifies VA coverage for vehicle adaptations—improving access and reducing out-of-pocket costs for disabled veterans—while increasing potential VA costs and risks of longer waits or delayed benefit increases.
Veterans Accessibility Advisory Committee Act of 2025
The bill strengthens VA accessibility oversight and temporarily protects certain veterans' pension rules, but does so at modest taxpayer cost and through a time-limited advisory committee that will need reauthorization to sustain improvements.
Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025
The bill prioritizes exclusive, sex‑segregated athletic opportunities for cisgender girls and gives institutions clearer federal guidance, but it excludes transgender girls from girls' sports and creates legal, financial, and participation risks for schools and some students.
Supporting the goals and principles of Transgender Day of Remembrance by recognizing the epidemic of violence toward transgender people and memorializing the lives lost this year.
The resolution raises federal recognition of anti-transgender violence and calls for protections, data, and awareness that can benefit transgender people’s health and rights, but as a nonbinding measure it risks unmet expectations, possible state-level backlash, and potential fiscal implications if implemented into programs.
Commemorating the centennial year of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
The resolution raises awareness and affirms professional standards for speech‑language and hearing care, potentially encouraging screening and policy attention, but it is ceremonial and does not provide funding or legal rights, risking unmet expectations.
Designating the week beginning September 7, 2025, as "National Direct Support Professionals Week".
This resolution trades faster, data-driven improvements in support and planning for people with disabilities and the direct care workforce against the risk of short-term delays for policy fixes and potential increased taxpayer costs to fund targeted workforce interventions.
Recognizing September 20, 2025, as "National LGBTQ+ Servicemembers and Veterans Day".
The resolution acknowledges and documents harms to LGBTQ+ servicemembers and veterans and pushes agencies to act, but it simultaneously highlights reinstated restrictions on transgender service and offers symbolic pressure rather than binding legal remedies, creating recognition without guaranteed relief.
Recognizing the importance of independent living and economic self-sufficiency for individuals with disabilities made possible by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and calling for further action to strengthen and expand health care for individuals with disabilities to work and live in the community.
The resolution seeks to expand federal support and civil‑rights enforcement to move people with disabilities toward community‑based care and address COVID disparities, while imposing costs on taxpayers and governments and creating potential administrative burdens and short‑term care disruptions.
Designating June 15, 2025, as "World Elder Abuse Awareness Day" and the month of June 2025 as "Elder Abuse Awareness Month".
The resolution raises awareness and builds a factual basis to combat elder financial abuse and COVID‑related scams, but it does not itself provide funding or operational changes, risking unmet expectations and implementation delays unless followed by concrete legislative or budgetary action.
Affirming that diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility are fundamental values of the United States and emphasizing the ongoing need to address discrimination and inequality in the workplace, pre-K through 12th grade and higher education systems, government programs, the military, and our society.
The resolution pushes federal DEIA priorities to reduce discrimination and expand inclusion across housing, employment, health care, and contracting, while increasing compliance burdens, enforcement costs, and the risk of litigation and political pushback.
Designating April 30, 2025, as "National Assistive Technology Awareness Day".
The bill strengthens recognition and potential access to assistive technology for students, people with disabilities, and older adults—supporting education and employment—while creating the risk of expanded, potentially unfunded obligations and administrative burdens for states and taxpayers.
Supporting the goals and ideals of the Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools Initiative, a call to action to communities across the United States 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 strengthens federal support for affirming, enumerated protections for LGBTQI+ students to improve safety, mental health, and educational outcomes, while increasing the risk of state–federal legal conflicts, local disputes, and modest administrative costs for school districts.
Recognizing the need to improve physical access to many federally funded facilities for all people of the United States, particularly people with disabilities.
The resolution reaffirms and highlights accessibility needs for people with disabilities and signals updated infrastructure standards, but it provides no binding requirements or funding to guarantee those improvements.
Rights for the TSA Workforce Act
The bill extends Title 5 protections, pay safeguards, and greater oversight to TSA and other transportation‑security employees to improve worker protections, transparency, and recruitment, but does so at the cost of higher federal personnel expenses, significant implementation burdens, and reduced short‑term operational flexibility with some privacy and legal trade‑offs.
Women's Retirement Protection Act
The bill strengthens spousal protections and directs federal funding to help women and survivors secure retirement assets—improving equity and enforcement—while creating new administrative burdens and recurring federal costs that may fall on employers, participants, and taxpayers, and that could concentrate grant dollars among larger organizations.
Do No Harm Act
The bill prioritizes preservation of nondiscrimination, healthcare access, and worker protections by narrowing the availability of RFRA defenses—strengthening rights and services for many Americans while reducing religious‑liberty defenses and raising compliance, funding, and litigation risks for faith‑based entities and some contractors.
Native ELDER Act
The bill improves tribal input, transparency, training, and home-modification supports to help elders age in place, but it increases federal and program costs, administrative burdens, and creates some transparency and politicization trade-offs that could limit effectiveness or raise stakeholder tensions.
Safeguarding Honest Speech Act
The bill strengthens conscience-based protections and creates an enforceable private right for federal workers who refuse to use certain pronouns or names, but does so at the cost of legal uncertainty, increased litigation and administrative burdens, and reduced workplace recognition and protections for transgender and nonbinary employees.
Helping Heroes Act
The bill expands VA family-focused services, data collection, and civil-rights protections to better serve veterans, families, and people with disabilities, but it raises costs, compliance burdens, variable service-quality risks, potential privacy concerns, and may cause delayed roll‑out or service disruptions during enforcement.
Korematsu-Takai Civil Liberties Protection Act of 2025
The bill strengthens civil-rights and due-process protections against discriminatory federal detention for vulnerable groups and increases accountability for federal detention practices, while imposing added litigation, administrative uncertainty, and potential operational complications for law enforcement and immigration/national-security activities.
ENABLE Act
The bill permanently expands and clarifies tax-favored saving options for people with disabilities and their families—improving long-term financial flexibility for disability-related expenses—while imposing modest federal revenue costs and requiring implementation steps and outreach to ensure equitable take-up.
Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2025
The bill strengthens and clarifies federal recognition and enforcement against antisemitic discrimination—improving protections and consistency for Jewish students and institutions—while raising significant free‑speech, legal, and administrative trade-offs that could prompt litigation, burden schools, and complicate civil‑society activities.
