To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 15422 NY 104 in Martville, New York, as the "Sergeant Staret J. Ingleston Memorial Post Office Building".

This bill designates the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 15422 NY 104 in Martville, New York, as the "Sergeant Staret J. Ingleston Memorial Post Office Building".

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide for a microemployer pension plan startup credit, to permit the assignment of small business pension plan startup credits, and for other purposes.

The proposal would give small business owners tax credits to help cover the costs of starting retirement savings plans for their employees, making it more affordable for companies with very few workers to offer pension benefits. It would also allow businesses to transfer or sell these tax credits to other companies if they don't need them, creating a market where credits could be bought and sold. These changes aim to encourage more small employers to set up retirement plans so their workers have access to savings options.

To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to establish a full risk ACO program.

This bill would create a new Medicare program allowing groups of doctors and hospitals to take on financial risk by agreeing to care for patients at a set cost, with the potential to earn bonuses if they spend less than expected while maintaining quality care. Currently, most Medicare providers are paid for each service they deliver, but this "full risk" model would encourage them to coordinate care and reduce unnecessary spending since they keep savings or absorb losses. The change would affect Medicare patients, healthcare providers, and potentially insurance companies involved in managing these accountable care organizations.

Healthcare is Human Act of 2026

Based on the title and tax-related subject matter, this bill likely proposes changes to how healthcare is taxed or funded through the tax code. The specific details aren't yet clear from the referral stage, but it probably aims to make healthcare more affordable or accessible by adjusting tax rules—such as modifying deductions, credits, or how health insurance premiums are treated. Once the House Committee on Ways and Means reviews it, the actual provisions will determine whether it affects individual taxpayers, employers who provide health benefits, or both.

Essential Caregivers Act of 2025

Essential Caregivers Act of 2025 This bill prohibits certain health care facilities from limiting the access of essential caregivers to residents of those facilities, including during designated emergency periods. Specifically, the bill generally prohibits Medicare skilled nursing facilities, Medicaid nursing facilities, Medicaid intermediate care facilities, and associated inpatient rehabilitation facilities from restricting the access of essential caregivers to residents of the facilities, including during emergency periods in which visitation rights are otherwise restricted. During emergency periods, facilities may restrict access for an initial period of up to seven days and for one additional maximum seven-day period (if the additional period is approved by the state health department). Facilities may restrict access for a total of 7 days (or 14 days with the approval of the state health department) during an emergency period. Essential caregivers must agree to comply with any safety protocols set by the facility, which may be no more stringent for caregivers compared to those for staff. Caregivers who fail to comply with these requirements may be denied access, subject to an appeals process.

SEVER Act

The SEVER Act would likely address how the United States handles relationships or agreements with other countries, though the specific details depend on what "SEVER" stands for. Based on its referral to the Judiciary Committee, it probably involves legal or diplomatic matters that could affect how America conducts international business or diplomacy. Without knowing the full title, the bill's exact impact on citizens, businesses, or government agencies cannot be determined from the title alone.

No Bail Post-Jail Act

This bill would likely change how bail is handled for people who have already served jail time, possibly by restricting or eliminating bail requirements for certain defendants after they've completed sentences or spent time in custody. The measure would affect criminal defendants, courts, and the bail system's operation, though the specific changes depend on the bill's detailed provisions. The goal appears to be reforming bail practices related to individuals with prior incarceration.

Promoting Free and Fair Elections Act of 2025

This bill aims to protect the integrity of U.S. elections through measures that could include voting access rules, election security standards, or campaign finance regulations, though the specific provisions aren't yet detailed. The legislation would affect voters, election officials, political campaigns, and potentially technology companies involved in election systems. Congress is currently reviewing the proposal across multiple committees to determine which parts fall under each committee's area of responsibility.

Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to prohibit voting in Federal, State, or local elections by individuals who are not citizens of the United States.

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment that prohibits an individual who is not a U.S. citizen from voting in federal, state, or local elections for public office or voting on any ballot initiative or referendum held in the United States.

Timothy J. Barber Act

Timothy J. Barber Act This bill requires the Department of Labor to conduct a study on the effectiveness of spending by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration for technical assistance and compliance assistance related to heat-related illness.

Fairness in Vineyard Data Act

Fairness in Vineyard Data Act This bill requires the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) to conduct a survey, within one year of the bill's enactment, on grape production in each state and publish the data on the NASS website. In each of the following four years, NASS must make publicly available on the website data from the five states with the highest grape production in the preceding year.

PACE Act

Promoting Affordable Childcare for Everyone Act or the PACE Act This bill increases and makes refundable the tax credit for qualified child and dependent care expenses. The bill also increases the exclusion from gross income for employer-provided child and dependent care benefits. Under current law, a nonrefundable tax credit is allowed for up to 35% (maximum tax credit percentage) of qualified child and dependent care expenses incurred by an individual to work or look for work, up to a maximum amount. The percentage of such expenses allowed as a tax credit may be reduced, but not below 20% (minimum tax credit percentage), based on an individual’s adjusted gross income. The bill generally increases the tax credit for qualified child and dependent care expenses by increasing the maximum tax credit percentage to 50%, increasing the minimum tax credit percentage to 35%, and adjusting the maximum credit amounts annually for inflation. The bill also makes the tax credit for qualified child and dependent care expenses refundable. Finally, the bill increases and adjusts for inflation the amount that may be excluded from gross income for employer-sponsored child and dependent care benefits (e.g., dependent care flexible spending arrangements) to $7,500 (from $5,000).

High-Quality Charter Schools Act

This bill would likely provide tax incentives or funding mechanisms to support the creation and operation of charter schools, which are publicly funded but independently operated schools. The measure aims to encourage the expansion of what supporters view as higher-quality charter school options for students and families. The bill has been sent to the House tax committee for review.

Protecting Options for Seniors Act of 2025

Protecting Options for Seniors Act of 2025 This bill increases payments for Medicare Advantage plans in areas in which the average hospital wage index increased by more than 20% compared to the previous year. Payment increases are based on the percentage by which the average hospital wage index increased compared to the previous year and weighted by the proportion of attributable payments in the area.

Protect TANF Resources for Families Act

The proposal would restrict how states can use federal welfare funds from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, requiring that money be spent primarily on direct cash assistance to low-income families rather than on other state programs or administrative costs. This would affect both the families receiving welfare benefits and state governments that administer the program, potentially limiting flexibility in how states address poverty-related needs. The bill aims to ensure that federal welfare dollars go directly to helping struggling families pay for basic expenses like food, housing, and utilities.

Motorsports Fairness and Permanency Act of 2025

This bill would make permanent certain tax breaks for the motorsports industry, likely including deductions or credits related to racing events, vehicle testing, or facility improvements that are currently set to expire. The changes would primarily benefit motorsports companies, race track operators, and related businesses by reducing their tax burden. The measure was referred to the House tax committee for consideration.

Encouraging the EU to DESIGNATE Resolution

This resolution urges the European Union to officially recognize and designate something as a matter of international policy, though the specific target of the designation is not detailed in the title alone. The measure reflects congressional interest in influencing EU decision-making on a foreign affairs matter that lawmakers believe is important to U.S. interests or values. If passed, it would express the House's position but would not directly change any laws or require any U.S. government action.

Community News and Small Business Support Act

Community News and Small Business Support Act This bill establishes a temporary business tax credit for expenses incurred by an eligible small business to advertise in local media. The bill also establishes a temporary refundable tax credit for a percentage of wages paid by an eligible employer to local news journalists. (Limitations apply.) Under the bill, an eligible small business (a business with an average of fewer than 50 employees) may claim a tax credit for (1) 80% of local media advertising expenses, up to a maximum of $5,000, in the first year of the tax credit; and (2) 50% of such expenses, up to a maximum of $2,500, in the subsequent four years. (Other conditions and limitations may apply.) The bill also allows an eligible employer to claim each calendar quarter a refundable tax credit against Medicare payroll taxes for (1) 50% of wages paid to a local news journalist in the first four calendar quarters of the tax credit, and (2) 30% of such wages paid in each calendar quarter in the subsequent four years. However, under the bill, the tax credit for local news journalist wages is limited to $12,500 in wages paid per local news journalist per quarter and the wages of no more than 1,500 local news journalists may be included. Further, the tax credit may not be claimed for wages for which certain other tax credits (e.g., the tax credit for paid family and medical leave) are claimed. (Other conditions and limitations may apply.)

PAR Act

The proposal would change how certain business partnerships and pass-through entities are taxed at the federal level. It affects owners of small businesses, partnerships, and similar business structures by potentially altering their tax obligations and how income flows through to individual tax returns. The measure is currently under review by the House committee responsible for tax policy.

Implementing DOGE Act

Implementing Decreases in Overall Government Expenditures Act or the Implementing DOGE Act This bill requires rescissions of certain nonsecurity (i.e., nondefense) discretionary appropriations. Beginning in FY2026, the bill requires annual rescissions on a pro rata basis that are equal to the excess growth percent of the nonsecurity discretionary appropriations made available for the fiscal year. Under the bill, the excess growth percent is the percentage in excess of 1% that the total annual appropriations exceeded the previous fiscal year’s annual appropriations. The rescissions required by the bill are effective on the day after the date on which appropriations are made available through September 30 of the applicable fiscal year for the entire federal government.
