Amendment sought to prohibit the Department of Defense from using taxpayer funds to cover the costs of foreign military personnel participating in bilateral or multilateral military exercises conducted with the United States unless the Secretary of Defense waives the prohibition when necessary to support a U.S. national security interest.

An amendment numbered 15 printed in Part A of House Report 119-755 to prohibit funds for Ukraine Security Assistance except for U.S. embassy security in Ukraine.

An amendment numbered 4 printed in Part A of House Report 119-749 to require nations to pay the U.S. for military training exercise rather than receive them as a grant or at no-cost.

This bill would impose significant restrictions on the H-1B visa program, which allows U.S. employers to temporarily hire foreign workers in specialty occupations. The legislation would halt all new H-1B visa issuances for three years while simultaneously implementing sweeping reforms intended to restrict the program's use. The bill would cut the annual H-1B visa cap from approximately 85,000 to 25,000, reduce visa validity from six years to three years, impose a $100,000 fee per H-1B petition, and raise the minimum wage requirement for H-1B workers to $200,000 annually. Additionally, the bill would eliminate the diversity lottery system for allocating visas and replace it with a wage-based priority system, prohibit H-1B workers from being employed by staffing agencies, prevent federal agencies from hiring H-1B workers, and eliminate optional practical training and other work authorization programs for foreign students. The legislation would also bar most temporary visa holders from adjusting their status to permanent residency while in the United States, effectively preventing a pathway to citizenship for H-1B workers and other temporary visa holders.

The bill authorizes Congress to award a Congressional Gold Medal to Nick Shirley, a journalist who conducted an investigative report in December 2025 that allegedly uncovered approximately $110 million in fraud affecting U.S. taxpayers in Minnesota. The medal recognizes Shirley's investigative journalism work that exposed what Congress characterizes as waste and abuse, which reportedly led to the Trump administration halting federal funding to fraudulent businesses. The Secretary of the Treasury will design and strike the gold medal, and is authorized to produce and sell duplicate bronze medals to cover the costs of production, with proceeds going back to the U.S. Mint Public Enterprise Fund. No specific timeline for the medal's presentation is established in the legislation, and the costs will be paid from the U.S. Mint Public Enterprise Fund.

The Atmosphere Study Act directs the Secretary of Energy to study the potential negative health and environmental effects of geoengineering projects—large-scale interventions in Earth's climate system, such as injecting aerosols into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight or brightening clouds. The study applies specifically to projects that receive federal funding or involve participation by federal agencies. The Secretary must complete the study within 180 days of the bill's enactment and submit a report to Congress within one year after the study concludes. The bill does not specify funding amounts or authorize new appropriations but requires coordination with other relevant federal and state agencies during the research process.

The Nick Shirley Congressional Gold Medal Act authorizes the awarding of a Congressional Gold Medal to Nick Shirley in recognition of investigative journalism that exposed what the bill describes as significant fraud affecting U.S. taxpayers in Minnesota. According to the legislation, Shirley's December 2025 investigation allegedly uncovered over $110 million in fraudulent activity, which led to the Trump administration halting federal funding to businesses involved in the fraud. The bill directs the Secretary of the Treasury to design and strike the gold medal and authorizes the production of duplicate bronze medals that can be sold to the public, with sale proceeds returned to the U.S. Mint Public Enterprise Fund. The only funding involved is whatever costs are necessary to manufacture the medals, which are charged against the U.S. Mint's existing public enterprise fund.

H.R. 6931 approves and ratifies a comprehensive water rights settlement with the Yavapai-Apache Nation in Arizona, resolving all tribal and federal claims to water in the Verde River Watershed and Colorado River. The bill authorizes construction of two major water infrastructure projects—the Cragin-Verde Pipeline and a drinking water treatment system capable of delivering up to 3 million gallons daily—and allocates approximately $1.24 billion in federal funding ($883.5 million for infrastructure and $155.7 million for water projects, wastewater improvements, operations, and watershed restoration). The legislation secures the Nation's water rights from both the C.C. Cragin Dam and the Central Arizona Project, prohibits permanent water sales, and requires the settlement to become effective by June 30, 2035, once all funding is deposited and infrastructure projects are completed. The bill also recognizes the cultural and religious significance of the Verde River to the Yavapai-Apache Nation while preserving their right to challenge future unauthorized water diversions in the watershed.

The DEFEND Act requires the Department of Homeland Security to conduct annual assessments of terrorism threats posed by unmanned aircraft systems (drones) used by foreign adversaries and terrorist organizations for six years. Each assessment must analyze how hostile actors acquire, deploy, and improve drones for surveillance, attacks on critical infrastructure, border disruption, and other threats, while also evaluating how these tactics could spread to domestic extremists or criminal groups. The bill directs DHS to consult with the Department of Defense, intelligence agencies, and private sector experts, then submit classified assessments to Congress within 270 days of enactment and annually thereafter, along with an unclassified public summary. Additionally, DHS must develop training modules and exercises to help law enforcement at all levels recognize and respond to drone-based terrorism threats. No new funding is explicitly authorized by the bill, and the assessment requirement lasts six years from the initial submission.

North Rim Restoration ActThis bill allows the National Park Service (NPS) to expedite the approval of contracts to restore forests, structures, and assets within areas of the Grand Canyon National Park impacted by the Dragon Bravo Fire in Arizona.Specifically, the bill authorizes the NPS to use emergency acquisition flexibilities without a presidential emergency or disaster declaration to contract for the following services in such impacted areas: managing or restoring forests, rebuilding structures affected by the fire, improving grounds and structures, conducting recovery efforts, or other specified activities.This authority expires on the date that is the earlier of the following: (1) seven years after the date of this bill's enactment, or (2) the date on which projects and recovery efforts within such area are completed. The NPS may request Congress extend such authority for 12 months if a new wildfire ignites within such area and impacts recovery efforts related to the Dragon Bravo Fire.The bill also authorizes the NPS to enter into noncompetitive procurement contracts for rebuilding, rehabilitating, replacing, or operating assets, such as lodging or utilities, to support the recovery and reopening of the Grand Canyon National Park North Rim. This authority is conditioned upon the NPS making certain determinations regarding the North Rim concessioner and it terminates seven years after this bill's enactment.

This bill designates the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 765 West Old Route 66 in Ash Fork, Arizona, as the "Fayrene Hume Post Office".

The ARMS Act requires the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to establish a rigorous covert testing program to identify weaknesses in airport security screening operations. Within 180 days of enactment, the TSA must create both a risk-informed testing system that conducts at least three covert testing scenarios annually—ensuring the nation's busiest airports (Category X airports) are tested at least once per year—and a long-term annual testing program based on emerging threat assessments. When vulnerabilities are discovered, the TSA must conduct a root cause analysis within 90 days and determine within 150 days whether to fix the problem, establishing specific milestones and completion dates if mitigation is warranted. The TSA must then retest within 180 days to verify that fixes work. Starting with the first full fiscal year after enactment and annually thereafter, the TSA must submit detailed reports to Congress by November 30, and publicly release summary data on overall pass and failure rates at major airports while protecting specific security details. The Government Accountability Office will also review the program's effectiveness within three years.

The Legacy Mine Cleanup Act establishes a new Office of Mountains, Deserts, and Plains within the Environmental Protection Agency to coordinate and streamline cleanup efforts at abandoned hardrock mine sites across the country. The office will develop best practices for mine remediation, create an annual priority list of contaminated sites needing cleanup, and facilitate coordination among federal agencies, states, tribal governments, and private companies involved in cleanup work. The legislation gives special attention to uranium-contaminated sites on Navajo Nation lands, requiring federal agencies to develop a comprehensive 10-year cleanup plan by September 2028 that includes cleanup goals, timelines, and funding projections. The bill does not grant the EPA any new regulatory powers; rather, it organizes existing cleanup authorities to work more efficiently. All activities are subject to available appropriations and funding from potentially responsible parties.

H.R. 3625 would prohibit all federal agencies from providing any funding to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), an independent nonprofit organization that currently receives congressional appropriations to support democratic institutions and civil society programs abroad. The bill applies broadly to all agencies under the federal government as defined in standard administrative law, with no exceptions or phase-out period specified. This legislation would effectively eliminate the federal government's financial support for NED's international democracy promotion activities, though it does not specify what happens to existing contracts or pending grants. The bill contains no dedicated funding mechanism because it is prohibitive rather than appropriative in nature. As introduced on May 29, 2025, the bill has not yet advanced through the legislative process and would require passage by both chambers and presidential signature to become law.

The USCP Empowerment Act of 2025 authorizes the United States Capitol Police to detect, track, disrupt, seize, and destroy unmanned aircraft systems (drones) that pose credible threats to Capitol buildings and grounds. The bill grants police significant powers to intercept drone communications, warn operators, disable aircraft controls, and use force if necessary—actions that would otherwise violate federal aviation and wiretapping laws. The Capitol Police must coordinate with the Department of Transportation and Federal Aviation Administration, implement privacy protections consistent with constitutional rights, and provide Congress with detailed reports every six months on how these authorities are used, including any damage to property or persons. The legislation includes safeguards requiring that intercepted communications be kept for no more than 180 days unless needed for investigations, and mandates that Congress receive unclassified reports documenting specific instances where these powers were exercised and their impacts on the national airspace system.

Nuclear Family Priority ActThis bill imposes limits on various types of family-sponsored immigration visas.The non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) parents of U.S. citizens shall not qualify for visas for immediate relatives, which are not subject to any direct numerical limits. Currently, the spouses, unmarried children under 21, and parents of citizens are considered immediate relatives.The bill also creates a nonimmigrant visa for such parents of citizens. Such non-U.S. nationals shall not be eligible for employment or any public benefits.The bill also reduces the baseline annual cap for family-sponsored visas from 480,000 to 88,000, and revises the methods for calculating the cap. Currently, the 480,000 cap may be adjusted depending on various factors but shall not be less than 226,000.The bill eliminates preference allocations (visa categories subject to various annual caps) for various family-sponsored visas, including those for the siblings and married children of citizens. The bill provides for a preference allocation for the unmarried children under 21 and spouses of permanent residents, subject to the 88,000 annual cap.

This resolution removes Representative Al Green of Texas from the House Committee on Financial Services due to his conduct during the March 4, 2025 State of the Union address. According to the resolution, Representative Green repeatedly interrupted the President's speech despite warnings from House staff and the Speaker, and was removed from the chamber by the Sergeant at Arms. The resolution states that Green's actions violated House decorum and dignity, and notes that he expressed no regret, telling colleagues he would "do it again" and even led a protest against his subsequent censure on March 6. The resolution argues that this conduct breaches the House rule requiring members to behave in a manner that reflects creditably on the institution, warranting his removal from the committee. The resolution was sponsored by a group of House Republicans and referred to the Committee on Ethics for consideration.

This resolution censures Representative Al Green.

Apache County and Navajo County Conveyance Act of 2025This bill requires the Forest Service to convey certain lands within the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest to Navajo County and Apache County, Arizona. The counties must use the land as cemeteries.As a condition of each conveyance, the counties must pay all associated costs, including the costs of surveys and environmental analyses.

This resolution proposes to impeach U.S. District Judge Paul Adam Engelmayer of the Southern District of New York based on allegations of abusing his judicial power. According to the resolution, Judge Engelmayer violated his oath of office by issuing court orders that restrained President Trump and Treasury Secretary Bessent from granting access to Treasury Department records and financial data systems containing sensitive information. The sponsors claim these judicial actions prioritized political considerations over impartiality and interfered with executive branch authority. The resolution was introduced on February 21, 2025, and referred to the House Judiciary Committee. If the full House votes to impeach, the case would proceed to the Senate for a trial to determine whether Judge Engelmayer should be removed from office.

Hire Veterans ActThis bill requires the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to establish a five-year pilot program to recruit veterans with relevant strengths and abilities and refer them to positions in federal land management agencies (e.g., the National Park Service).OPM shall conduct tests of certain strengths and abilities for veterans participating in the program. After testing, federal land management agencies may offer non-competitive career-conditional appointments to such veterans demonstrating necessary strengths and abilities. Such agencies may also refer veterans not demonstrating sufficient strengths and abilities in the tests to training programs, and then re-administer such tests until the veteran qualifies for a non-competitive career-conditional appointment.

This bill directs the Forest Service to convey specified property to Gila County, Arizona, upon the county's submission of a written request for such conveyance. The property, identified as the Gila County Area, consists of approximately 232.9 acres of National Forest System land located in the Tonto National Forest in Arizona.The county must use the land for the purposes of serving and supporting veterans. If any land conveyed under this bill ceases to be used for such purpose, all right, title, and interest in and to the land shall revert to the United States, at the discretion of the Forest Service.The conveyance must be made with a quitclaim deed and without consideration (value, such as payment, provided in exchange for the property).The Forest Service must not be required to provide any covenant or warranty for the land and improvements conveyed to the county under such conveyance.As a condition of the conveyance, the county must pay all the costs associated with the conveyance, including any (1) surveys, (2) environmental analysis or resource survey required under federal law, and (3) analysis required to comply with certain provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act.

The Energy Opportunities for All Act would overturn a federal land withdrawal order that currently prohibits mineral extraction on public lands surrounding Chaco Culture National Historical Park in San Juan County, New Mexico. By nullifying Public Land Order No. 7923, the bill would once again allow mining and energy development activities on these previously protected lands. The legislation directly affects mining and energy companies operating in the region, as well as stakeholders with interests in the Chaco area, including Native American tribes and environmental advocates who support the current protection. The bill contains no specific funding allocations or implementation timelines, as it simply repeals an existing order rather than establishing new programs or expenditures.

Subterranean Border Defense ActThis bill requires recurring annual reporting by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on the implementation of a strategic plan to counter illicit cross-border tunnel operations. Currently, CBP is only required to report once no later than one year after the plan's development.
