MethodologyFreedom from Taxes Act of 2026
The proposal would change federal taxes on certain firearms and firearm accessories that are currently regulated under the National Firearms Act, such as silencers and short-barreled rifles, potentially reducing or eliminating the fees people pay when registering or purchasing these items. This would affect gun owners, manufacturers, and federal tax revenue, while also potentially changing how the government tracks these regulated weapons.
Rural Jobs and Hydropower Expansion Act
This bill would likely expand hydropower development on federal lands and waterways in rural areas, potentially allowing more dams or water power projects to be built or modified. The legislation aims to create jobs in rural communities through construction and operation of these hydroelectric facilities while increasing renewable energy production. Rural landowners, construction workers, and energy companies would be the primary beneficiaries, though environmental groups may have concerns about impacts on rivers and wildlife.
Expressing support for the Federal Protective Service and its law enforcement officers.
This resolution expresses congressional support for the Federal Protective Service, the law enforcement agency responsible for protecting federal buildings and their occupants across the country. The measure recognizes the work of FPS officers who secure federal facilities and respond to security threats at these locations.
TRUMP Ballroom Act
The proposal would allow the federal government to build a new ballroom at the White House for official events and ceremonies. The bill has been sent to two congressional committees for review to determine whether it's a good use of taxpayer money and whether the construction meets necessary standards.
No Federal Tax Dollars for Illegal Aliens Health Insurance Act of 2026
This bill would prohibit federal tax dollars from being used to pay for health insurance coverage for people who are in the country illegally, including through programs like Medicaid and subsidies for private insurance plans. The legislation would affect both undocumented immigrants seeking health coverage and the government agencies that administer these insurance programs. It is currently being reviewed by two House committees to determine whether it complies with budget and healthcare laws.
Contracting America First Act
This bill would require the federal government to prioritize buying goods and services from American companies when awarding contracts, rather than allowing federal agencies to purchase from foreign suppliers. The measure would affect how billions of dollars in government spending flows through the economy, potentially benefiting U.S. businesses and workers while potentially increasing costs for federal agencies and taxpayers. The bill is currently under review by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act
Finish the Arkansas Valley Conduit Act This bill reduces payments that communities within the Arkansas River Valley must pay to the Bureau of Reclamation for the construction of the Arkansas Valley Conduit, a pipeline in Colorado for delivering water from the Pueblo Reservoir to such communities. Specifically, it removes interest payments and extends the repayment period to 100 years.

Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Improvement Act of 2025
Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Improvement Act of 2025 This bill revises the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP), which is a component of the Farm Service Agency's (FSA's) Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). CREP is a public-private partnership program which allows states, tribal governments, and nonprofit and private entities to partner with FSA to implement CRP practices. CRP is a land conservation program that provides an annual rental payment to farmers in exchange for removing environmentally sensitive land from agricultural production and planting species that will improve environmental health and quality. The bill specifies that dryland agricultural uses and grazing are included as appropriate practices under CREP. The bill also allows a land owner or operator to elect to determine the annual payment amount allocated for each year of a CREP agreement, instead of a fixed payment per year for the contract period. For drought and water conservation agreements that include the permanent retirement of water rights, annual payment rates must be equal to the irrigated acre payment rates determined by the Department of Agriculture (USDA). In the case of an agreement that permits dryland agricultural uses, the annual payment rates must be equal to the difference between the irrigated acre payment rates and the dryland acre payment rates determined by USDA. The payment formula is retroactive for certain existing drought and water conservation agreements. Further, the bill exempts CREP payments from the $50,000 annual payment limitation under CRP.
Protecting American Energy Production Act
Protecting American Energy Production Act This bill prohibits the President from declaring a moratorium on the use of hydraulic fracturing unless Congress authorizes the moratorium. The bill also expresses the sense of Congress that states should maintain primacy (authority) for the regulation of hydraulic fracturing for oil and natural gas production on state and private lands. Hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, is a process to extract underground resources such as oil or gas from a geologic formation by injecting water, a propping agent (e.g., sand), and chemical additives into a well under enough pressure to fracture the formation.
Fentanyl is a WMD Act
