Currently, there is no single, easy-to-find list of all federal crimes. This bill would require the Attorney General and 35 federal agencies to create detailed reports and public online lists of all federal criminal laws and regulations. This would make it easier for the public and legal professionals to understand what constitutes a federal crime.

Currently, federal spending for roads and public transit can sometimes be more than the money collected by the Highway Trust Fund. This bill would cap that spending each year to match only what the fund is expected to bring in. This change would mean new rules for how states get money for highway and public transit projects, starting October 1, 2027.

This bill would make major changes to how people register and vote in federal elections. Everyone would need to show specific documents proving they are a U.S. citizen when they register. All voters would also need to present an eligible photo ID when they vote, whether in person or by mail.

This bill would end the United States African Development Foundation (USADF). If passed, the USADF would stop its work supporting development projects in Africa. This means people who currently get help from the USADF would no longer receive that support.

This bill would require a study on a new water system at Glen Canyon Dam. This system could help make hydropower generation better and stop invasive species from spreading. If the study finds it's possible, and power companies agree, the system could be built.

This bill would let people with certain incurable terminal illnesses get Social Security disability benefits right away, instead of waiting, though their monthly payment would be 7% less. It would also stop people from getting both Social Security disability benefits and unemployment checks at the same time. These changes aim to help those with severe illnesses while also tightening rules around benefit collection.

Currently, the President lacks specific authority to use private groups against cartels. This bill would change that. It would authorize and request the President to commission private individuals and groups to seize cartel members and their property outside the U.S. This action would target those responsible for acts of aggression against the United States.

The Senate would formally state its opposition to foreign governments, like the European Union, trying to censor or fine Americans for their online speech. This resolution would reaffirm the Senate's commitment to protecting free speech and commercial interests for U.S. citizens and companies, urging the Trump administration to respond firmly to such actions.

This bill would give owners of cars, trucks, and farming or construction vehicles more control over their vehicle's data. Manufacturers would need your clear permission to access or share your data, and you would get free, real-time access to it. It would also ban sharing your personal information with certain foreign governments.

This bill would cancel a law passed in 2022 called the Human Rights Sanctuary Amendment Act. If passed, this means the rules that were in place before that 2022 law would become active again for people living in Washington, D.C. The exact impact on residents depends on what the 2022 law did and what the older laws covered.

Summary pending...

This bill would allow certain local transit agencies to take on some environmental reviews for their projects, a task currently handled by the federal government. This change could help speed up transit project approvals in large cities, but it would also make local agencies solely responsible and liable for these reviews.
