The Right to Worship Act makes it a federal crime to knowingly disrupt religious services or prevent people from entering houses of worship. The law applies within 100 feet of any entrance to a house of worship during the hour before through the hour after a scheduled religious service, and it covers any conduct that substantially affects interstate commerce. The bill defines "disruption" based on how conduct is carried out (volume, duration, frequency) rather than its content, preserving free speech protections for peaceful protest. Violators face civil fines of $2,500 for a first offense, $5,000 for a second offense, and $10,000 for each subsequent offense, while victims may pursue civil lawsuits seeking damages up to $5,000 per violation plus attorney fees. The Attorney General and state attorneys general are authorized to enforce the law on behalf of the public interest.

The Limiting Excessive Government Obstruction Act would fundamentally change how federal agencies can pursue enforcement actions against individuals and businesses. Currently, when an agency initiates an adjudication (an internal administrative hearing), the bill would allow defendants to file a demurrer that forces the agency to dismiss the case. Instead of resolving matters within the agency, the government would then have only 90 days to bring a civil lawsuit in federal district court, where defendants would have the right to a jury trial and could argue that any alleged violation was reasonable under the circumstances. The bill carves out significant exceptions for immigration law, national security, tax matters, bankruptcy, patents, and federal benefits like Social Security and Medicare. The legislation would effectively bypass traditional administrative processes for most regulatory matters and shift enforcement disputes to the court system, potentially making it harder for agencies to enforce their rules.

The SAFER Transport Act modernizes and strengthens oversight of the motor carrier industry by requiring the Department of Transportation and Department of Justice to coordinate on freight fraud and theft investigations, phasing out outdated Motor Carrier numbers in favor of a unified USDOT identifier system over five years, and establishing new safety gates that allow authorities to deny registration to applicants convicted of serious crimes like human trafficking and theft. The legislation also directs the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to develop automated fraud detection systems within one year to identify suspicious registration activities and establishes a clearer definition of who qualifies as a broker in interstate transportation. These changes will affect motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders, and shippers by creating stricter eligibility standards, requiring ownership changes to be reported within 30 days, and providing law enforcement with better tools to combat transportation fraud and protect supply chain security.

Aviation Supply Chain Safety and Security Digitization Act of 2025This bill directs the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study the impediments to the use of digital documentation and verification in the aviation supply chain as an aid in identifying falsified documentation and counterfeit parts. GAO must submit a report to Congress on the results of the study and include recommendations on (1) ways to encourage the aviation industry to adopt the use of digital forms and authentication tools, and (2) how to accelerate the Federal Aviation Administration's adoption of digital documentation. Within 120 days of GAO's submission, the Department of Transportation must respond to any recommendations in the report.

Tren de Aragua Border Security Threat Assessment ActThis bill requires the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to submit a border threat assessment and strategic plan regarding Tren de Aragua and other transnational criminal organizations. (Tren de Aragua is a gang that originated in Venezuela.)The threat assessment must include current and potential criminal threats from Tren de Aragua and a description of its origins, strategic aims, funding sources, and U.S. growth and presence.DHS must submit a strategic plan not later than one year after submission of the threat assessment. The plan must include, for example, a consideration of the threat assessment and mitigation efforts regarding Tren de Aragua and other transnational criminal organizations and efforts to disseminate information between DHS and other departments, agencies, and law enforcement entities with missions associated with the border.

H.R. 3242, the Punishing Illegal Immigrant Felons Act of 2025, increases criminal penalties for immigrants who are unlawfully present in the United States and commit crimes. The bill amends federal immigration law to impose mandatory minimum prison sentences: anyone who enters the country illegally and is later convicted of any crime punishable by more than one year in prison must serve an additional minimum of 5 years, while someone previously deported who re-enters and commits certain crimes faces mandatory sentences of 10 to 15 years depending on the offense. The legislation affects immigrants convicted of crimes ranging from felonies to any offense carrying a sentence longer than one year. There is no specific funding allocation mentioned in the bill, and it would take effect upon enactment, applying to convictions going forward.
