All for our country
Mining Regulatory Clarity Act
The bill makes it easier for miners to consolidate and operate multiple mill sites and creates a fee-funded cleanup account, improving remediation funding and operational flexibility, at the cost of increased local environmental risks and reduced appropriations oversight.
To impose a 30 percent duty on sheep products and lamb products from Australia or New Zealand.
The bill shields U.S. wool and lamb producers by making key imports more expensive, but that protection comes at the cost of higher consumer prices, increased input costs and competitiveness risks for downstream industries, and potential retaliatory trade damage.
Rebuilding America’s Airport Infrastructure Act
The bill raises and indexes PFCs to give airports stable funding for upgrades and planning, improving facilities but passing higher costs onto passengers—especially low‑income flyers—and reducing reliance on federal grants.
Northern Nevada Economic Development and Conservation Act of 2025
The bill transfers significant federal lands and control to local, state, and tribal entities—delivering local planning, conservation, and new revenue streams—while shifting cleanup, transaction costs, and long-term stewardship obligations to local taxpayers and reducing federal environmental review and oversight.
To amend title 38, United States Code, to establish a presumption that certain veterans were exposed to radiation and other toxins at the Nevada Test and Training Range for purposes of the treatment of certain disabilities under the laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, and for other purposes.
The bill expands presumptive service connections for veterans exposed at specified NTTR/Nellis‑range sites and for certain tumor conditions—improving access to VA care and faster claims decisions for affected veterans—while increasing federal VA costs and leaving some nearby or differently classified veterans without the same presumptions.
Prior Approval Reform Act
The bill increases clarity and predictability for solicitation rules—benefiting nonprofits and donors—while raising the risk of enforcement exposure and higher compliance costs for organizations that had relied on the removed limitation.
Coin Metal Modification Authorization and Cost Savings Act of 2025
The bill seeks modest taxpayer savings and clearer budget accounting by allowing the Mint to change coin metals subject to industry input and congressional review, but it trades those gains for risks of flawed studies, equipment compatibility failures, review delays, and potential politicization of technical currency updates.
Reaffirming the deep and steadfast United States-Canada partnership and the ties that bind the two countries in support of economic and national security.
The resolution strengthens U.S.–Canada economic and security ties—supporting manufacturers, exporters, housing supply, and alliance coordination—while posing modest fiscal and compliance costs and potential complications for U.S.–China policy alignment.
Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2027
The bill increases transparency, accountability, and targeted investments in border operations, cybersecurity, and disaster programs while imposing tighter immigration controls and extensive reporting/reprogramming limits that reduce DHS flexibility, raise administrative costs, and may shift expenses onto users and grantees.
Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2026
The bill shifts DHS toward much greater congressional oversight, budget discipline, and targeted funding for border and disaster programs—improving transparency and some operational supports—while imposing new administrative controls and policy restrictions that may slow responses, raise costs, and tighten immigration and programmatic flexibility.
