Systemic Risk Authority Transparency Act
The bill boosts speedier GAO and congressional oversight and transparency around systemic-risk designations and bank supervision while trading off greater exposure of confidential supervisory materials, potential diversion of agency resources during crises, concentrated access to sensitive materials, and higher legal risks.
Department of Homeland Security Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Authorization Act
The bill strengthens DHS civil-rights enforcement, complaint handling, language access, and public oversight — improving protections for immigrants and marginalized communities — but does so at added taxpayer cost and with risks of investigatory delays, privacy exposure, and bureaucratic overlap.
Representative Green's Original Legislation to increase from 9 to 13 the number of justices of the Supreme Court.
The bill offers a way to reshape and speed the Supreme Court by adding seats—potentially broadening perspectives and reducing backlogs—at the cost of elevated politicization risk, institutional instability, and increased long-term federal expenses.
Original Legislation to Give TSA Employees a Raise
The bill gives TSA frontline career employees an immediate, substantial pay raise that should ease financial strain and help staffing/security, but it increases federal personnel costs and may require budget trade-offs and create internal pay inequities.
Original Additional Credit FHA Pilot Program Authorization Act
The bill could expand mortgage access for credit-invisible borrowers and provide policymakers with data, at the cost of added compliance expenses and a risk of greater defaults and losses to the FHA fund if alternative scoring performs worse or uptake among target borrowers is limited.
Original Alternative Data for Additional Credit FHA Pilot Program Reauthorization Act
The bill could expand mortgage access for thin-file borrowers and improve risk prediction while increasing transparency, but it raises privacy concerns, could expose the FHA insurance fund and taxpayers to greater financial risk, and may produce uneven access and administrative costs.
Reforming Disaster Recovery Act
The bill strengthens and prioritizes federal long‑term disaster recovery and mitigation—giving low‑ and moderate‑income households and local governments more predictable, faster aid and tools to reduce future risk—at the cost of higher federal spending, added administrative complexity and compliance limits for grantees, and increased data‑sharing/privacy risks for survivors.
Strengthening and Improving Mobilization Act of 2026
The bill strengthens national preparedness by requiring regular DPA surge-production exercises and clarifying mobilization authorities, but it creates recurrent agency costs and risks diverting resources or prompting future taxpayer-funded spending if not properly funded.
Preemption of Real Property Discrimination Act
The bill expands property purchase rights and federal protections for immigrants while stripping states and territories of citizenship-based land‑use controls and raising the prospect of increased federal enforcement and litigation.
Housing Fairness Act of 2025
The bill significantly strengthens and funds fair-housing enforcement, testing, outreach, and research—raising detection, data, and public awareness—but does so with added federal spending, new compliance and administrative burdens, and restrictions that may limit smaller groups' access and grantees' flexibility.
