Kimberly Vaughan Firearm Safe Storage Act

Gun sellers would be required to include written safety information and a locking device with every firearm sold, while the government would create guidelines for safe storage and offer grants to help distribute locks and storage equipment. The bill would also allow tax credits for retailers who sell firearm storage devices. These requirements would apply to all licensed gun manufacturers, importers, and dealers.

College Affordability and Accessibility Act

The proposal would raise the maximum amount of federal financial aid that low- and middle-income students can receive to attend college, making it easier for more families to afford higher education. It would also give colleges and universities more flexibility in deciding which students qualify for this aid. Students and families struggling with college costs would be the primary beneficiaries of these changes.

SET Act

When a House seat becomes vacant, states would be required to hold a special election within 180 days to fill that position, rather than allowing the seat to remain empty for longer periods. This would affect voters in affected districts by ensuring they have representation sooner and would impact states' election administration processes. The requirement applies to all House vacancies regardless of when they occur during a congressional term.
