SBA Artificial Intelligence Utilization Act of 2026

Women and Lung Cancer Research and Preventive Services Act of 2025
The bill promotes increased lung cancer screening, targeted research, and federal transparency—potentially improving outcomes (especially for women and under-recognized groups)—but will consume federal resources, may raise short-term healthcare costs, and may require further legislation/funding to realize its full benefits.
Keeping Deposits Local Act
The bill makes deposit funding and supervisory rules clearer and expands funding flexibility for well-rated agent banks—potentially boosting lending and liquidity—while increasing systemic risk and competitive pressure on smaller or lower-rated banks and adding administrative responsibilities for regulators.

Critical Mineral Dominance Act
The bill aims to boost domestic critical-mineral production, jobs, and supply-chain resiliency through faster approvals, targeted mapping, and clearer rules — but does so by reducing regulatory friction and reallocating agency focus in ways that raise substantial local environmental, health, taxpayer cost, and public-input risks.

Designating November 2025 as "National Lung Cancer Awareness Month" and expressing support for early detection and treatment of lung cancer.
