Smart Data Center Policy Act

The Commerce Department would study whether placing data centers near military bases, transportation hubs like airports and rail yards, and industrial areas could be beneficial, examining factors like infrastructure, security, and economic impacts. The research would help policymakers understand if these locations offer advantages for companies that operate data centers, which are the large facilities that store and process information for the internet and cloud services. The findings could inform future decisions about where the government and private companies should invest in data center development.

Honoring Circuit Judge Pauline Newman Act of 2026

The bill would name a specific courtroom in a federal courthouse building in Washington, DC after Pauline Newman, likely in recognition of her judicial service or contributions to the legal system. This is a ceremonial designation that honors Newman by attaching her name to the courtroom, though it does not change how the courtroom operates or affects the public directly. The proposal is currently under review by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

CLUSTER Act

The proposal would expand federal disaster relief funding to cover "community hardening" projects—infrastructure improvements designed to make communities more resilient to future disasters, such as reinforced buildings, improved drainage systems, or strengthened utilities. Currently, federal disaster assistance focuses mainly on recovery after disasters strike, but this change would allow communities to use those funds for preventive upgrades that reduce damage from future events. This would affect local governments, property owners, and communities seeking to protect themselves from hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and other natural disasters.

AV Emergency Response Coordination Act

The proposal would set up basic rules for how companies operating self-driving cars must communicate and cooperate with firefighters, police, and paramedics during emergencies. This would help ensure that autonomous vehicles don't interfere with emergency response efforts and that first responders have the information they need to handle accidents or other incidents involving driverless cars. The bill affects autonomous vehicle companies, emergency services, and the public who share roads with self-driving vehicles.

Incentivizing Value Capture for Greener Transportation Act

The legislation would create financial incentives for communities and transportation agencies to capture and reinvest the increased property values that result from new public transit projects, directing those gains toward funding additional green transportation improvements. This approach aims to help pay for buses, trains, and other low-emission transit systems by tapping into the economic benefits that neighborhoods experience when transit access improves. The bill would primarily affect local governments, transit agencies, and property owners in areas receiving new transportation infrastructure.

Guaranteed Disaster Assistance Act

The proposal would establish a system to automatically provide federal disaster relief funds to states and communities affected by major disasters, rather than requiring them to request assistance after each event. This would help speed up recovery efforts for homeowners, businesses, and local governments dealing with hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, and other natural disasters. The measure is currently being reviewed by the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure.

Freedom to Ship Act

This proposal would prevent shipping companies and transportation services from refusing to carry firearms or ammunition based on their own policies against handling weapons. It would protect gun manufacturers, dealers, and individual gun owners from being denied shipping services that other customers can access. The bill aims to ensure that common carriers treat firearm shipments the same way they treat other legal goods.
