Esse quam videri
To be, rather than to seem
To direct the Commandant of the Coast Guard to update the policy of the Coast Guard regarding the use of medication to treat drug overdose, and for other purposes.
The bill strengthens maritime drug enforcement clarity and improves Coast Guard opioid-overdose response and oversight, at the trade‑off of greater criminal exposure and enforcement costs, privacy and operational risks for service members, and program implementation expenses.
Broadband Infrastructure Extension Act
Extending spending deadlines and allowing use of existing funds increases the likelihood broadband projects finish and speeds access for underserved areas, but it raises oversight risks and could shift additional costs onto local governments and taxpayers.
Pregnancy Loss Mental Health Research Act of 2026
The bill expands federal research, clinician training, and grant-funded maternal mental health services and supports for people who experience pregnancy loss—improving access and local capacity—while including provider exclusions, program rules, and modest funding that may limit providers, leave coverage gaps for some patients, and slow implementation.
MTS CYBER Act of 2026
The bill strengthens federal oversight, coordination, and clarity to reduce maritime cyber risk and protect trade, but does so at the cost of added compliance burdens for industry, potential new taxpayer spending, and some loss of local flexibility.
PRESS Act
The bill strengthens prosecutors' ability to disrupt cross-border drug supply chains and reduce illegal drugs in the U.S., but it increases the risk that lawful exporters and U.S. persons working abroad will face criminal exposure and imposes new compliance costs and potential incarceration expenses for taxpayers.
To designate the Washington Dulles International Airport in Virginia as the "Donald J. Trump International Airport".
The bill creates a single, legally uniform airport name that reduces confusion for travelers and government users but shifts costs and potential controversy onto local governments, businesses, and airport partners.
Protecting Children from Foreign Mutilation Act
The bill tightens restrictions and oversight on foreign involvement in gender‑related medical care and creates reporting tools for Congress, but does so in ways that risk restricting patient access, criminalizing routine transgender healthcare, and imposing due‑process and privacy harms on travelers and providers.
Kidd’s Stuttering Act
The bill improves early detection and expands coverage and telehealth access for stuttering treatment—helping many children and low-income families—while increasing state Medicaid costs and administrative burdens and leaving a risk of uneven access where workforce or fiscal constraints persist.
Foreign Robocall Elimination Act
The bill strengthens anti‑robocall infrastructure, coordination, and enforcement to reduce illegal and spoofed calls, but does so at the cost of taxpayer-funded administration, new burdens on small/new providers, reduced reporting frequency, and privacy and legal‑recourse risks for some callers and providers.
ALCATRAZ Act
The bill provides near-term funding and federal coordination to offset local detention costs, but does so by diverting FEMA shelter funds and promoting expanded detention capacity, risking reduced emergency services and increased detention of immigrants.
