To amend the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities of title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, and for other purposes.
The bill temporarily prevents a gap in federal surveillance authorities and buys administrative time, but it prolongs privacy risks and eases near‑term pressure for reform.
Community Bank Deposit Access Act of 2025
The bill gives small community banks and ERISA plans more limited insured deposit options and clarifies statutory caps—slightly boosting Treasury receipts—while introducing caps and price restrictions that can constrain some banks' liquidity and raise compliance costs for plan sponsors, producing modest fiscal benefit but meaningful operational trade‑offs for affected institutions.
21st Century ROAD to Housing Act
The bill invests in increasing affordable housing supply, tenant protections, disaster recovery, and community banking support while strengthening HUD oversight — but does so at notable taxpayer cost and with tradeoffs including program dilution for the poorest households, privacy and administrative burdens, potential market disruptions (manufactured housing and banking), and implementation uncertainty.
Digital Asset Market Clarity Act
The bill provides comprehensive regulatory clarity, stronger consumer disclosures, AML controls, and operational standards for digital assets—tradeoffs include higher compliance costs, new privacy/surveillance risks, potential chilling effects on innovation, narrowed investor remedies, and concentrated market power that may shift costs and risks onto consumers and taxpayers.
Amend the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to extend the authorities of title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, and for other purposes.
The bill preserves intelligence and agency operations by briefly extending Title VII surveillance authorities, but it delays the expiration of powers that raise privacy and civil‑liberties concerns and may reduce near-term pressure for reform.
SPEED Act
The bill speeds permitting and reduces duplicative reviews and litigation for project sponsors and agencies, but does so by narrowing NEPA's scope and judicial remedies in ways that reduce public participation, oversight, and protections for communities, tribes, and the environment.
To require the Secretary of Agriculture to convey a parcel of property of the Forest Service to Perry County, Arkansas, and for other purposes.
The bill transfers a small parcel to the county at no purchase price to enable local public uses, but shifts cleanup, conveyance costs, and reversion risk onto the county—trading federal cost savings for local financial, legal, and planning burdens.
Flatside Wilderness Additions Act
The bill permanently protects and formalizes a wilderness addition—improving conservation, recreation, and wildfire-management clarity—while imposing use restrictions, affirming agency treatment authority that some may oppose, and creating modest administrative and economic costs.
Protecting Veteran Access to Telemedicine Services Act of 2025
The bill expands VA telemedicine access to controlled medications and clarifies clinician authority to improve care convenience for veterans, while increasing risks of diversion, privacy breaches, and implementation costs that require strong safeguards and oversight.
Fair Investment Opportunities for Professional Experts Act
The bill expands pathways for wealthy, credentialed, and industry professionals to access private capital markets while preserving high eligibility bars that leave many middle‑income Americans excluded and impose new compliance burdens on issuers and brokers.
