This bill would make it easier for college students to learn about their civil rights and report discrimination based on race, color, or national origin. Colleges would have to post information about these rights and a link to the government's complaint page. The Department of Education would also run an awareness campaign and track complaints more closely.

This bill would renew and improve a grant program that helps colleges create and run Student Veteran Centers. These centers offer dedicated spaces and support services for veterans, active duty military, and their families attending college.

This bill would create a grant program for fire departments to help older adults avoid falls and get faster help during in-home emergencies. Fire departments could use this money for home safety improvements, special emergency access devices, and community paramedics.

This bill would have Congress officially support a 'National Falls Prevention Awareness Week' from September 22 to September 28, 2025. The goal is to raise public awareness about preventing falls among older adults, who currently face about 14 million falls each year. It also encourages ongoing efforts and federal funding for programs that help prevent these falls.

This bill would require the federal government to study why State Medicaid programs face challenges covering remote health monitoring devices, such as blood pressure cuffs. The aim is to make these devices more accessible for pregnant and new mothers on Medicaid. This could potentially improve their health and their babies' health.

This bill, called the Global Health, Empowerment and Rights Act, would make it simpler for foreign aid groups to get U.S. government money. It would stop the U.S. from refusing funds to these groups just because they offer certain health services with their own money, as long as those services are legal in their country. It would also make sure they follow the same rules as U.S. groups when using their own money for advocacy.
