Taxpayer Notification and Privacy Act
The bill increases taxpayer notice and delays third-party contacts to reduce privacy intrusions and give taxpayers time to respond, but it risks slowing enforcement, raising compliance costs, and may be undermined by a Secretary waiver that lets broad contacts continue.
Doug LaMalfa Federal Disaster Tax Relief Certainty Act
The bill increases and clarifies tax relief for disaster and wildfire survivors (including non-itemizers and some past disaster victims) but does so at the cost of lost federal revenue, added compliance complexity, limits on stacking other tax benefits, and delayed relief for some recipients.
Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025
The bill prioritizes preserving single-sex athletic opportunities for girls by excluding transgender girls and clarifying compliance for institutions, at the cost of reducing inclusion and opportunities for transgender students and raising legal and financial risks for schools.
To allow direct shipment of distilled spirits by craft distilleries, and for other purposes.
Taliban Rare Earth Minerals Sanctions Act
The bill aims to cut off Taliban-linked revenue from Afghanistan's rare-earth activities and protect U.S. supply chains, but does so by imposing new screening burdens and legal/immigration penalties that raise costs and risks for businesses and affected individuals.
Time of Service Act
The bill restores and expands Post‑9/11 GI Bill eligibility for veterans who separated between 2001 and 2013—broadening education access and reducing some denials—at the cost of higher VA education spending and short-term VA processing burdens.
Modern GI Bill Act
The bill lets veterans use a portion of Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to reduce federal student loan debt now, but it reduces funds available for tuition, has caps that may leave remaining balances, and requires new VA implementation that could delay or complicate delivery.
Birthright CLAIM Act of 2026
Veterans Cannabis Use for Safe Healing Act
The bill improves veterans' access to state marijuana programs and enables clinicians to provide safer, more informed care, but it creates legal ambiguity, privacy risks, and additional administrative burdens for the VA and its providers.
HUSTLE Act
The bill clarifies tax treatment and creates dedicated NIL accounts to help student-athletes manage earnings, but it shifts costs into greater paperwork for individual taxpayers and extra administrative work for the IRS and financial institutions.
