Address the ineligibility of Ashli Babbitt for military funeral honors.
The bill tightens standards and clarifies implementation for military honors to protect their integrity, but it risks politicizing posthumous recognitions and imposing administrative and fairness concerns.
No Settlements for January 6 Law Enforcement Assaulters Act
The bill stops federal funds from being used to settle claims by convicted January 6 assailants—advancing accountability and reducing direct payouts—but may increase litigation and block some legitimate settlements, potentially shifting costs and risks onto taxpayers and federal employees.
Establishing the Select Subcommittee to Investigate the Remaining Questions Surrounding January 6, 2021.
The bill creates a short-term, well-equipped congressional subcommittee likely to produce an authoritative account of January 6, at the trade-off of expanded investigatory reach that raises privacy concerns, additional taxpayer costs, and the potential to prolong partisan conflict.
No Rewards for January 6 Rioters Act
The bill prevents federal funds from being used to compensate or refund people prosecuted in the January 6 attack and redirects those amounts to Capitol maintenance, trading stronger limits on payments to those defendants for increased legal and rights-related risks and reduced executive flexibility to resolve related claims.
No Rewards for January 6 Rioters Act
The bill prevents federal reimbursement or compensation tied to January 6 defendants and redirects some funds to Capitol operations—protecting taxpayer dollars and signaling support for victims, but at the cost of restricting legal remedies, raising constitutional and politicization concerns, and creating administrative burdens.
January 6th Oral History Project Act
The bill creates and funds a Library of Congress oral history program that preserves and makes available firsthand January 6 materials—improving historical record and transparency—but does so with new public spending, potential donor influence, and risks to privacy and retraumatization of participants.
