This resolution honors the life and legacy of Kay Granger, a longtime Republican congresswoman from Texas who passed away in 2025. Granger made history as the first woman to serve as mayor of Fort Worth, the first Republican woman to represent Texas in Congress, and the first Republican woman to chair the House Committee on Appropriations during her nearly 28-year tenure in the House representing Texas's 12th District. Throughout her career, she was known for advocating for national defense, championing military interests in Texas including the F-35 fighter jet and the USS Fort Worth naval vessel, and authoring the Monuments Men Recognition Act that honored World War II veterans. The resolution expresses the House's sympathy to her family and directs that an official copy be sent to them. No funding or specific timeline requirements are associated with this commemorative resolution.

The Stop EU Overreach Act requires the United States Trade Representative to launch a formal investigation into whether four major European Union regulations unfairly burden American companies and restrict U.S. commerce. The targeted regulations cover corporate sustainability reporting, supply chain due diligence, deforestation tracking, and carbon border adjustment mechanisms, which the bill argues impose costly extraterritorial requirements on U.S. firms and their overseas operations even when those operations comply with American law. The USTR must initiate the investigation within 30 days of enactment and complete a determination within 12 months, with the ability to request a single 60-day extension, after which the USTR may recommend trade actions such as tariffs or suspension of trade benefits if the investigation finds the EU practices unreasonable. The legislation also requires the USTR to report to Congress at 90 days and again after making a final determination, detailing preliminary findings and any proposed remedies. The law's requirements end if the EU repeals or amends these measures to eliminate their application to U.S. persons, or enters into a binding agreement exempting American companies from the extraterritorial obligations.

The Prior Authorization Accountability Act requires health insurance plans and insurers to publicly report detailed information about their prior authorization practices starting in 2027. Prior authorization is the process where insurers must approve certain medical treatments before they are provided. The bill mandates that plans disclose approval and denial rates for prior authorizations, broken down by specific medical services, as well as how often denied requests are successfully appealed. Plans must also report how long it takes to make prior authorization decisions and disclose whether they use artificial intelligence or other automated technology to make these determinations. The legislation applies to employer-sponsored health plans and individual insurance markets, with reporting requirements submitted to the federal government and posted on plan websites so consumers can compare how different insurers handle prior authorization requests. Additionally, starting in 2029, health insurance marketplaces established under the Affordable Care Act must include this prior authorization data in their plan comparison tools to help people make informed choices when selecting coverage.

The Advanced Transmission Technology to Reduce Rates Act directs the Department of Energy to establish a publicly available clearinghouse within one year that catalogs federal projects and funding sources related to advanced transmission technology, analyzes the efficiency benefits and costs of these technologies, and examines how geography and weather affect their deployment. The bill authorizes the Energy Secretary to provide technical assistance to electric utilities, transmission organizations, and state regulators who request help in understanding the clearinghouse resources, planning transmission upgrades, or developing regulatory frameworks for advanced transmission technologies. The legislation also requires the Secretary to develop best practices within one year for electric utilities to reduce wildfire ignition risks from power lines, including recommendations for vegetation management, engineering improvements, and safer operational procedures. Additionally, federal funding for advanced transmission technology deployment is exempted from lengthy environmental review requirements under the National Environmental Policy Act. Importantly, the bill explicitly states that nothing in it allows the federal government to mandate that utilities actually adopt any of these technologies or practices.

The Better Care, Better Cost Act would require states to consider the performance of managed care organizations when automatically assigning Medicaid patients to health plans. Currently, states can assign patients based on factors like geographic convenience, but this bill would mandate they use performance scores based on measures such as medical costs, hospital readmission rates, emergency department visits, and patient satisfaction. Each state would establish its own performance evaluation system and publish annual reports showing how performance-based assignments affect enrollment decisions and reduce overall Medicaid spending. The requirement would take effect on January 1, 2028, giving states time to develop their evaluation systems. The legislation aims to direct Medicaid enrollees toward better-performing plans, potentially improving care quality and controlling costs.

This bill expands the role of the State Department's Special Presidential Envoy for the Abraham Accords to include efforts in Central Asia and the Caucasus regions, in addition to the Middle East, North Africa, and Indo-Pacific areas already covered. The legislation specifically recognizes Kazakhstan's 2025 accession to the Abraham Accords framework and directs the Special Envoy to pursue similar normalization agreements with other countries in Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) and the Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia). The bill allows the Special Envoy to designate a Deputy Special Envoy with relevant regional expertise and requires coordination with the Departments of Defense, Commerce, and Energy, but explicitly states that no additional federal funding is authorized for these expanded duties. Instead, the Special Envoy must use existing programs and authorities to implement these objectives.

H.R. 7592 requires energy and natural resources agencies to place expiration dates, or "sunsets," on their regulations. Existing regulations at the Department of Energy, the Interior Department's various offices, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission must expire within one year of the bill's enactment, while new regulations would expire after five years unless extended. Agencies can only extend these expiration dates if they gather public comment and determine the regulation is worth keeping, and each extension cannot exceed five years—though agencies can extend regulations multiple times if they choose. If a regulation expires without being extended, the agency must stop enforcing it and remove it from federal rules. The bill essentially puts energy and environmental regulations on a ticking clock, requiring agencies to periodically justify their continued existence or face automatic elimination.

H.R. 7034 would eliminate the current dollar caps on how much profit homeowners can exclude from federal taxes when they sell their primary residence. Currently, homeowners can exclude up to $250,000 in gains if single or $500,000 if married filing jointly; this bill removes those limits entirely, allowing any amount of profit from a home sale to be tax-free. The change would benefit homeowners across the country, particularly those in high-cost housing markets where home values have appreciated significantly. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage for all home sales occurring after the law is enacted, and no specific funding is required since it reduces rather than increases tax revenue. This represents a major shift in tax policy that would primarily aid middle and upper-income homeowners in expensive real estate markets.

This resolution expresses congressional support for Kazakhstan joining the Abraham Accords, a diplomatic agreement framework that normalizes relations between Israel and participating countries. Kazakhstan became the first Central Asian nation to join the Accords following an announcement on November 6, 2025, involving President Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, and Kazakh President Tokayev. The resolution highlights Kazakhstan's long history of ties with Israel—including diplomatic recognition since 1992 and a direct flight route established in 2023—and notes that the country has promoted interfaith dialogue through hosting international religious conferences. The House calls on both governments to strengthen people-to-people connections, urges the U.S. to continue expanding the Abraham Accords framework, and encourages other countries to deepen relations with Israel as a path to regional peace and prosperity. No specific funding or implementation timeline is included in this resolution, which is primarily a statement of congressional support for the diplomatic initiative.

The SPEED for Broadband Infrastructure Act streamlines the permitting process for certain broadband and wireless communications projects by exempting them from two major federal review requirements: environmental reviews under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and historical preservation reviews under the National Historic Preservation Act. The bill applies specifically to smaller, less impactful projects, including new communications facilities in public rights-of-way that are no more than 50 feet tall (or 10 feet taller than existing structures), replacement facilities that are the same or similar to what they're replacing, small antenna installations, and modest expansions of existing communications facility sites. The legislation affects broadband providers, telecommunications companies, and federal agencies that grant permits for these projects, while preserving state and local zoning authority and maintaining existing protections for radiofrequency exposure. The bill contains no specific funding allocations or implementation timelines, instead focusing on regulatory changes designed to accelerate the deployment of broadband infrastructure across the country.

Homeowner Energy Freedom Act This bill repeals the Department of Energy's (1) high-efficiency electric home rebate program for certain electrification projects in low- or moderate-income households, (2) state-based home energy efficiency contractor training grants, and (3) assistance for states and local governments to adopt specified building energy codes. It also rescinds any unobligated balances available for the rebates or adopting the building energy codes. (The unobligated balances for the contractor training grants were previously rescinded by the 2025 reconciliation act.)

The TERMS Act requires online service providers—websites and apps that require user accounts—to be more transparent about how they enforce their rules and when they remove or suspend users. Specifically, companies must publicly post clear policies explaining what behavior gets people banned, how they enforce those rules, and whether users can appeal decisions. The bill also requires companies to give users at least seven days' written notice before restricting their accounts, explaining what rule was violated, unless the restriction is needed immediately to prevent death, serious injury, or serious health risks. Additionally, online service providers must publish annual reports showing how many accounts they've restricted, broken down by the specific policy violated and who reported the violation. The Federal Trade Commission will enforce these requirements starting 180 days after the bill becomes law, treating violations as unfair or deceptive practices subject to existing FTC penalties.

The LIT Act of 2025 reverses federal energy efficiency standards for general service light bulbs, primarily targeting incandescent lamps. The bill removes energy conservation requirements that the Department of Energy had established for these bulbs through regulations issued in 2022 and 2024, effectively eliminating mandatory efficiency standards in this category. This change would allow manufacturers and consumers to use incandescent bulbs without meeting the government's minimum energy performance requirements, though it does not mandate their use. The legislation contains no specified funding or implementation timeline—it takes effect upon passage and immediately invalidates the three prior Department of Energy rules governing light bulb standards.

This joint resolution eliminates new, more stringent energy conservation standards for commercial refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerator-freezers. Under the joint resolution, such equipment is no longer required to comply with the new standards.Specifically, the joint resolution nullifies the rule titled Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Commercial Refrigerators, Freezers, and Refrigerator-Freezers and published by the Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy on January 21, 2025. Under the rule, the office adopted new energy conservation standards for commercial refrigeration equipment to achieve the maximum improvement in energy efficiency that is technologically feasible and economically justified. The rule required the equipment to comply with the those standards by January 22, 2029.
