Nil sine numine
Nothing without the Deity
Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act
The bill improves the feasibility of completing the Arkansas Valley Conduit and lowers local annual payment burdens through federal support and flexible repayment, but it shifts substantial upfront and long-term costs and risks onto local governments and utilities while reducing near-term federal receipts.
Pet and Livestock Protection Act
The bill speeds transfer of gray wolf management from federal to state authority and reduces litigation to deliver faster regulatory certainty and fewer federal constraints for some industries and livestock owners, but it removes federal protections and judicial oversight—raising conservation risks, legal-accountability concerns, and potential costs for communities and governments.
To direct the United States Postal Service to designate single, unique ZIP Codes for certain communities, and for other purposes.
Creating distinct ZIP Codes will improve mail accuracy, emergency response, and local identity for named communities, but it brings short-term administrative burdens and implementation costs that could fall on residents, USPS operations, and taxpayers.
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify and eliminate certain taxes imposed under the National Firearms Act, and for other purposes.
TRUMP Ballroom Act
No Federal Tax Dollars for Illegal Aliens Health Insurance Act of 2026
The bill secures taxpayer-funded subsidy dollars for U.S. citizens and creates uniform federal application by rescinding conflicting waivers, but does so by sharply reducing state waiver flexibility and risking abrupt disruptions to state programs and coverage—particularly for lawfully present immigrants and uninsured populations.
Contracting America First Act
The bill tightens sourcing rules to better protect federal and citizen data and increases oversight and enforcement, but does so at the cost of narrowing the vendor pool, raising procurement costs, and risking rushed implementation.
Rural Jobs and Hydropower Expansion Act
The bill broadens and clarifies federal authorization and oversight to enable more hydropower development and reduce some regulatory uncertainty, but it raises significant water‑competition and cost risks for local water users and non‑Federal operators while limiting local control and creating short‑term legal uncertainty.
American Energy Act
The bill speeds and stabilizes oil and gas permitting and lease outcomes—reducing industry delays and auction uncertainty—while weakening judicial pauses and increasing environmental, health, and potential taxpayer risks.
Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Improvement Act of 2025
The bill increases and makes more flexible payments to agricultural producers for water-conservation actions (including retroactive corrections), benefiting participating landowners but raising federal costs, risking subsidy concentration among larger producers, and constraining administrative flexibility.
