Track bills, resolutions, and amendments moving through Congress
Stop Illegal Fishing Act
The bill gives the U.S. stronger tools to deter IUU fishing, protect fish stocks and vulnerable workers, and increase enforcement transparency, but these benefits come with risks of higher costs to consumers and businesses, legal and diplomatic fallout, and potential harm to legitimate fishers if sanctions are applied too broadly.
Tehran Incitement to Violence Act
The bill strengthens U.S. tools to identify, sanction, and block Iran-linked actors and reduce their ability to fund violence, while increasing risks of diplomatic friction, potential retaliation, compliance burdens on businesses, and enforcement costs for taxpayers.
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.
Block the Use of Transatlantic Technology in Iranian Made Drones Act
The bill tightens U.S. and allied controls and outreach to block Iran's access to UAS-related technologies—lowering threats to Americans and partners—while imposing compliance costs, risking supply‑chain and civilian-technology disruption, and raising diplomatic and oversight trade-offs.
Ukraine Support Act
This bill sharply expands U.S. diplomatic, financial, military, and economic tools to support Ukraine and pressure Russia—strengthening allied security and accountability—but does so at increased fiscal cost, elevated geopolitical and economic risks, and with added administrative and political constraints on executive action.
Stop Stealing our Chips Act
The bill strengthens export‑control enforcement and national security by financially incentivizing and protecting whistleblowers and speeding investigations, but it raises costs and administrative burdens for government and regulated businesses and carries risks to confidentiality and program funding stability.
Save Our Shrimpers Act
The bill strengthens U.S. ability to block multilateral financing for environmentally harmful shrimp projects—protecting coastal ecosystems and small-scale fishers—at the cost of reduced development options for borrowing countries, potential diplomatic friction, constrained flexibility for poverty‑focused projects, and added administrative burden.
Protecting Americans from Russian Litigation Act of 2025
The bill prioritizes protecting U.S. persons and national‑security‑driven sanctions compliance from foreign judgment enforcement and liability, at the cost of reducing foreign parties' judicial remedies, increasing diplomatic friction and reciprocal risk, and creating new legal uncertainty for cross‑border commerce.
Defending American Property Abroad Act of 2026
The bill strengthens U.S. authority to block use of foreign ports to protect American property and maintain control over transits, but it risks supply-chain disruption, higher compliance costs, and potential diplomatic fallout.
Fighting Foreign Illegal Seafood Harvests Act of 2025
The bill strengthens U.S. detection, enforcement, and international cooperation to curb IUU fishing and forced labor—benefiting fish stocks, lawful fishers, and consumers—but does so with new spending, compliance costs, privacy and due‑process risks, and potential diplomatic and operational tradeoffs.
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
HONOR Act
The bill removes U.S. tax advantages for payments tied to the Russian government and speeds enforcement to reinforce sanctions, but it raises tax costs for firms operating in Russia (and possibly consumers) and creates treaty/legal uncertainty for multinational taxpayers.
BRAVE Burma Act
The bill strengthens U.S. pressure on the Myanmar junta and increases transparency and oversight, but it raises compliance and economic risks for firms, adds administrative burdens, and risks diplomatic friction that could blunt U.S. multilateral influence.
PROTECT Taiwan Act
The bill gives U.S. regulators a tool to curb PRC influence and promote U.S.-style financial rules, but that approach risks regulatory fragmentation, diplomatic blowback, and added costs for banks and taxpayers.
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.
No Tax Dollars for Terrorists Act
The bill trades increased transparency, reporting, and conditionality designed to prevent U.S. aid from reaching the Taliban and to press for Afghan human rights against real risks of reduced humanitarian assistance, diminished diplomatic flexibility, operational-security exposure, and added administrative burdens.
Remote Access Security Act
The bill tightens export controls and enforcement around foreign remote access to better protect national security and increase oversight, while imposing meaningful compliance costs, potential operational disruptions for international users, and risks of chilling legitimate activity.
PORCUPINE Act
The bill speeds and streamlines U.S. defense transfers to strengthen Taiwan's deterrence and reduce exporter uncertainty while increasing congressional oversight — but it raises geopolitical escalation risks with China, pressure on security reviews and administrative capacity, potential fiscal and compliance costs, and creates sunset-driven uncertainty for program beneficiaries.
Scam Compound Accountability and Mobilization Act
The bill strengthens coordinated U.S. enforcement, sanctions, and victim‑centered responses to disrupt international scam compounds and compensate victims, but does so at the cost of higher federal spending, compliance burdens, diplomatic friction, legal/due‑process risks, and uncertainty from a seven‑year sunset.
No New Burma Funds Act
The bill preserves U.S. diplomatic leverage and pressure on Burma by blocking World Bank financing, at the cost of slowing development assistance to Burmese civilians and risking higher U.S. bilateral aid burdens and reduced cooperation/influence with international partners.
Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2025
The bill centralizes and speeds federal approval of LNG and gas export/import infrastructure—benefiting developers and the energy sector through predictability and single-agency decisionmaking—while reducing state and public oversight and raising environmental, public-health, and governance risks for local communities and the public.
Expressing condemnation of the Chinese Communist Party's persecution of religious minority groups, including Christians, Muslims, and Buddhists and the detention of Pastor "Ezra" Jin Mingri and leaders of the Zion Church, and reaffirming the United States' global commitment to promote religious freedom and tolerance.
The resolution bolsters U.S. advocacy and legal backing for protecting religious freedom abroad, but doing so risks heightened tensions with China that could bring economic and consular consequences for Americans.
Stop Chinese Fentanyl Act of 2025
The bill strengthens U.S. tools, transparency, and targeted authorities to disrupt fentanyl supply chains while preserving ordinary goods trade, but it risks diplomatic escalation, new compliance and administrative costs, and constraints on some executive sanctions options.
ARMOR Act
The bill speeds and streamlines allied defense logistics and cross-border transfers—improving readiness and lowering some costs—while trading off reduced congressional notification, possible security risks from faster approvals, and added administrative burdens without guaranteed new resources.
International Traffic in Arms Regulations Licensing Reform Act
This bill speeds and standardizes export-licensing decisions and strengthens congressional visibility—benefiting exporters and allied security—while increasing agency workload, confidentiality risks, and the chance that expedited or pressured reviews could undermine security and quality of decisions.
Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act of 2025
The bill increases U.S. ability to identify and sanction actors linked to Haitian trafficking and preserves humanitarian channels, but it also creates significant travel and legal risks for individuals and businesses, diplomatic and operational exposure from public disclosures, and program instability due to a five-year sunset that could disrupt services.
Undersea Cable Control Act
The bill tightens protections and oversight for undersea cable supply chains and increases transparency to bolster national security, while imposing compliance and export constraints that could raise costs, complicate procurement, and delay projects.
Maintaining American Superiority by Improving Export Control Transparency Act
The bill increases congressional oversight and program management capability for export controls but raises significant risks of exposing sensitive applicant and business information and imposes potential unfunded administrative burdens on agencies.
Financial Technology Protection Act of 2025
Taiwan Conflict Deterrence Act of 2025
The bill strengthens U.S. ability to identify and cut off financial flows linked to senior PRC officials and increases transparency and enforcement tools, but it raises risks of economic harm to banks, rights impacts on relatives, diplomatic escalation, and expanded enforcement discretion that could produce costly compliance burdens and reduced transparency in some cases.
