MethodologyFEMA Caseworker Accountability Act
The federal government's top auditor would be required to study why FEMA loses so many of its case management workers and report back to Congress with findings and recommendations. This would help lawmakers understand the reasons behind high turnover rates at the agency responsible for disaster response and recovery, which could affect how quickly and effectively FEMA helps people after emergencies.

DLARA
Disaster Loan Accountability and Reform Act or the DLARA This bill modifies the Small Business Administration (SBA) disaster loan program to require additional oversight and reports regarding the program. First, the bill requires the SBA to report monthly on the operation of the disaster loan program. (Currently, the SBA must report only during the applicable period for a major disaster.) The report must estimate the date on which available funding for such loans will reach 10% of the most recent appropriation and the date on which the funds will be depleted. If a report is not submitted by the required date, no funds may be obligated for official travel by the SBA Administrator until the report is submitted. Second, the President's annual budget must include separate statements regarding the appropriations request for SBA disaster loans and COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loans (EIDL), including explanations for any difference between the amount requested and the 10-year average cost for such loans. Third, the SBA must notify Congress when the unobligated balance of amounts available for disaster loans is less than 10% of the 10-year average annual cost provided in the most recent presidential budget. Finally, the bill requires additional oversight of the disaster loan program, including Government Accountability Office reports on the disbursement of disaster loans and the cost of specified SBA rules that modified the loan program; and an SBA report on its actions to improve forecasting, data quality, and budget assumptions for the cost of disaster loans.
Advancing Research in Nuclear Fuel Recycling Act
The federal government would be required to research new ways to recycle and reuse spent nuclear fuel from power plants instead of storing it permanently. This study would examine what technologies and methods could recover valuable materials from used nuclear fuel, potentially reducing waste and creating new resources. The research would help inform future decisions about how the U.S. handles nuclear waste and could affect energy companies, nuclear power plants, and communities near storage sites.
Stop Gang Violence Act
The federal government would prioritize giving crime-fighting grants to local police departments and sheriffs' offices that share information about gang affiliations with the FBI. This means cities and counties that report gang-related data would have a better chance of receiving federal funding to support law enforcement activities. The change aims to encourage information-sharing between local police and federal authorities to help combat gang violence.
TRUST Act of 2025
Tailored Regulatory Updates for Supervisory Testing Act of 2025 or the TRUST Act of 2025 This bill permits additional small insured depository institutions that are considered well-capitalized and well-managed (per their most recent examination) to qualify for less frequent examinations conducted by federal financial regulators. Specifically, the bill raises the maximum asset level that qualifies an institution for less frequent examinations from less than $3 billion to less than $6 billion.
Banning Perpetrators of Religious Persecution Act of 2026
This bill would prevent people from entering or staying in the United States if they have committed or been involved in religious persecution in their home countries. The law would target individuals who have targeted, harmed, or discriminated against people based on their religious beliefs, potentially affecting immigration decisions for asylum seekers, visa applicants, and others seeking entry to the U.S. It aims to protect religious freedom by denying entry to those with a history of persecuting others for their faith.
Unlocking Homeownership Act
This bill would likely make changes to tax rules to help more people afford to buy homes, possibly by adjusting deductions, credits, or other tax benefits related to homeownership. The specific changes would affect both individual homebuyers trying to purchase their first property and potentially existing homeowners, while also impacting federal tax revenue. The bill is currently under review by the House committee responsible for tax policy.
Supporting the recognition of January 9, 2026, as "National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day".
The bill would officially designate January 9, 2026, as a national day to recognize and appreciate law enforcement officers for their service and contributions to public safety. This is a symbolic measure that honors police, sheriffs, and other law enforcement personnel across the country, though it does not create any new programs or funding. The designation encourages Americans to acknowledge the work of these officers on that specific date.
Securing our Border Act
Securing our Border Act This bill addresses issues concerning border security and immigration, including by transferring unobligated funds from the Internal Revenue Service to certain border-related projects. Specifically, the bill transfers certain unobligated funds previously appropriated for tax enforcement activities (e.g., collecting owed taxes and conducting criminal investigations) to fund (1) nonintrusive inspection systems along the northern border and southwest border of the United States, and (2) the construction of a border wall system along the southwest border. The bill also authorizes the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to pay recruitment, retention, and relocation bonuses, subject to various requirements and limitations. For example, a relocation bonus may not exceed 15% of the agent's annual basic bay and must be conditioned on the agent agreeing to serve for at least three years at the new duty station. The bill also modifies the treatment of non-U.S. nationals ( aliens under federal law) arriving by land from a country next to the United States. Specifically, if such an individual is not clearly entitled to admission into the United States, the Department of Justice must (1) return the individual to that neighboring country or a safe third country while removal proceedings are pending, or (2) detain the individual while the individual's asylum application is under consideration. (Current law authorizes DOJ to return the individual to the neighboring country but does not require such action or detention.)

Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Through Data Act
Improving Law Enforcement Officer Safety and Wellness Through Data Act of 2025 This bill requires the Department of Justice to report on (1) targeted attacks on law enforcement officers, (2) the feasibility of incorporating such attacks into existing crime reporting systems, and (3) the mental health resources that are available to law enforcement officers.
