This House resolution recognizes June 12, 2026, as the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and honors the theological and historical significance of Sacred Heart devotion in the Catholic faith. The resolution does not create any new laws, appropriate funding, or establish binding requirements; rather, it expresses the House's support for this religious observance and commends the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops for consecrating the country to the Sacred Heart on America's 250th anniversary. The resolution emphasizes Catholic teachings about Christ's divine love and mercy, traces the history of Sacred Heart devotion in America including Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne's pioneering work in Missouri, and calls for renewed devotion through prayer, repentance, and family observance. It also encourages Americans to reject pride and self-centeredness in favor of humility as taught in Christian tradition. This is a commemorative resolution that carries symbolic rather than legal significance.

The Know Your Labor Rights Act would require employers to post notices informing employees about their rights under federal labor law, both in physical locations where employee notices are typically displayed and on company websites or electronic systems. The National Labor Relations Board would create the standard notice text and make it freely available to employers, and companies would also need to personally inform each new employee about these labor rights. Employers who fail to post the notices or notify new employees would face civil penalties of up to $500 per violation as determined by the Labor Board. The bill amends the National Labor Relations Act to establish these new notification requirements and enforcement mechanisms, making labor law protections more transparent to workers across the country.

The DEPORT Act of 2026 strengthens terrorism-related screening in the citizenship process by requiring all applicants to sign a sworn attestation that they have never been convicted of or charged with terrorism offenses and do not intend to commit such offenses in the future. The Department of Homeland Security must update citizenship application forms within 180 days to include this attestation, which lists all 22 covered terrorist offense categories, and the citizenship oath of allegiance will be modified to include an explicit renunciation of terrorist intent. The bill also makes a technical amendment ensuring courts formally revoke and cancel naturalization certificates when entering final revocation orders. Most provisions take effect immediately upon enactment, though the new attestation requirement applies 180 days after enactment, and deportability provisions apply to any convictions entered after the bill becomes law regardless of when the underlying conduct occurred.

H. Resolution 1121 honors the contributions of Irish Americans to the American Revolutionary War as part of the United States' 250th anniversary celebration in 2026. The resolution recognizes that Irish immigrants and Irish Americans made up roughly 40 percent of the Continental Army despite representing only about 10 percent of the population, and highlights prominent Irish-descended figures including Commodore John Barry, General George Washington's aide Dr. James McHenry, and at least eight signers of the Declaration of Independence. The resolution also acknowledges Irish American support through fundraising, supplying troops, and advancing credit to the new government, as well as the shared values of liberty that connected American independence to later Irish independence movements. This is a ceremonial resolution with no funding or implementation requirements—it simply expresses Congress's recognition and gratitude to the Irish American community for their historical role in founding the nation.

Introduced
This bill creates a new tax-advantaged savings account called a "Jumpstart Program" to help individuals save money for apprenticeships and trade occupations. Similar to existing college savings accounts (529 plans), these accounts would allow families to set aside funds tax-free for qualified expenses, including registered apprenticeships, community college programs, professional certifications, tools and equipment, and costs to start a trade business. States would establish and maintain these programs, and account holders could even transfer unused college savings into a Jumpstart account. The bill applies to tax years beginning after December 31, 2025, and would require program administrators to report account information to the IRS and beneficiaries. This legislation aims to make vocational training more accessible and affordable by providing the same type of tax benefits currently available for traditional college education.

H.R. 6062 transfers approximately 25 acres of federal land in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia from the Department of Interior to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for use as an Advanced Training Center, while simultaneously transferring approximately 71.51 acres from CBP back to the Department of Interior to be incorporated into Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. The bill excludes the CBP-controlled land from the park's boundaries and removes any existing acreage caps that might prevent the park expansion. If CBP determines it no longer needs the transferred land, that acreage will automatically revert to the park. The land transfers occur without any monetary payment between agencies, and the bill includes a requirement for CBP to conduct a survey to finalize the exact legal descriptions and acreage of the parcels involved.

H.Res. 866 is a congressional resolution condemning the persecution of Christians in Nigeria and expressing support for President Trump's decision to designate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern over religious freedom violations. According to the resolution, Christian communities in Nigeria have faced systematic violence by militant groups and government neglect, with an estimated 50,000 to 100,000 Christians killed since 2009 and roughly 35 killed daily in 2025. The resolution criticizes the Nigerian government for denying religious persecution exists, maintaining death-penalty blasphemy laws, and failing to prevent attacks despite warnings. The House calls on the U.S. government to use diplomatic and economic pressure on Nigeria to end violence against Christians, repeal blasphemy laws, protect religious freedom, and coordinate with international partners on humanitarian aid. The resolution does not authorize funding or establish specific timelines but expresses the House's readiness to support executive action on the issue.

H.R. 4766 directs the Secretary of Defense to create a new military service medal called the Faithful Patriot Campaign Medal to honor members of the Armed Forces and veterans who served on the U.S.-Mexico border during "Operation Faithful Patriot" or related subsequent border operations. The medal would be awarded to eligible service members and veterans upon their request, and can also be issued to the next-of-kin of deceased service members. The bill requires the Defense Department to design the medal and create an application process for both living veterans and families of deceased veterans to request the award. The legislation does not specify funding amounts or implementation timelines, leaving those details to the Secretary of Defense's discretion.

The PATRIOT Parks Act allows the National Park Service to charge international tourists an additional surcharge on top of regular entrance fees to national parks, with proceeds going directly to the specific park where the fee was collected for maintenance, visitor services, and staffing. Park superintendents would set surcharge amounts themselves (excluding the Washington Monument and international peace parks with special agreements), aiming to maximize revenue while maintaining visitation levels. The surcharge would apply to international visitors admitted on tourist visas and would be collected through existing park fee systems or third-party travel vendors. Additionally, international visitors purchasing the annual National Parks Pass would pay a surcharge that goes into a national fund for park restoration rather than staying at individual parks. The bill gives the Interior Secretary flexibility to suspend, modify, or increase surcharges as needed.

H.Res. 594 is a congressional resolution condemning the persecution of Christians in Muslim-majority countries around the world. The resolution documents widespread violence and discrimination against Christians in numerous nations, including Nigeria (where it claims thousands are killed annually), Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, Syria, Iraq, and many others in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The resolution calls on the President to make the protection of persecuted Christians a priority in U.S. foreign policy and to use diplomatic tools—including trade and national security negotiations—to advance their protection. This is a symbolic resolution expressing congressional sentiment rather than legislation that creates new programs or funding, so it does not include specific budget allocations or implementation timelines.

H.Res. 412 is a ceremonial resolution congratulating Pope Leo XIV (Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost) on his election as the 267th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church in May 2025, marking the first time an American-born citizen has held this position in the Church's 2,000-year history. The resolution highlights Pope Leo XIV's background as a Chicago native, Villanova University graduate, and decades-long missionary and church leader, including his previous role as Prior General of the Order of St. Augustine and his service as a bishop in Peru. The House of Representatives recognizes the historic significance of his election for American Catholics and commends his lifetime commitment to service, humility, and pastoral care while extending prayers as he begins leading the world's 1.4 billion Catholics. This resolution carries no funding or implementation requirements, as it is purely an expression of the House's congratulations and recognition of this religious milestone.

This bill modifies the Family and Medical Leave Act to prohibit employers from recovering health insurance premiums they paid for employees who decide not to return to work after taking parental leave for the birth of a child. Currently, employers can recoup these premium costs if an employee fails to return. The legislation affects private employers and their employees who take maternity or paternity leave, requiring employers to notify eligible employees of this protection when they take leave for a newborn. The bill has no specified funding requirements or implementation timeline, though it was referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce, along with the Committees on Oversight and Government Reform and House Administration.

H.R. 2282 restructures federal child care assistance by expanding parental choice and increasing support for relative and religious providers. The bill increases federal funding to $14 billion annually from 2026 through 2031 and requires states to give child care certificates to eligible families, allowing them to choose from a broader range of providers including relatives and religious organizations. It reduces regulatory requirements for relative caregivers and religious providers while protecting religious organizations' ability to operate according to their beliefs, including hiring based on religious adherence and offering religiously-instructional services. The legislation also establishes $50 million pilot programs to combat fraud and to identify and reduce regulations that prevent family members from serving as caregivers. Finally, the bill repeals the existing federal tax credit for child care expenses, effective for tax years beginning after enactment, eliminating a long-standing tax benefit for working parents.

This bill would ban Chinese nationals from obtaining student visas to the United States. Specifically, it prohibits the issuance of F, J, and M category visas—the primary visa types used by foreign students and researchers—to citizens of the People's Republic of China who wish to conduct research or pursue academic study. The measure would affect tens of thousands of Chinese students currently enrolled in or seeking admission to American universities and research institutions. The bill contains no specified funding requirements or implementation timeline, as it would primarily operate through changes to immigration visa processing at the State Department. Proponents argue the restriction protects American intellectual property and national security, while opponents contend it would harm universities financially and damage educational exchange relationships.

United States Reciprocal Trade Act This bill expands presidential trade authorities.The bill allows the President, in certain circumstances, to (1) negotiate with a foreign country for tariff reductions on exported U.S. goods, or (2) impose additional duties on imported goods. Specifically, the President may take these actions if it is determined that the country (1) when importing a good from the United States, applies a higher rate of duty on that good than the rate imposed by the United States when the good is imported from that country; or (2) similarly imposes other, nontariff trade restrictions on that good. This authority shall be effective for three years, subject to a three-year renewal.The President must terminate a rate of duty increase under this bill if the country no longer applies such higher rates or nontariff trade restrictions, or if the higher rate is no longer in the interest of the United States.The bill also requires the President to consult with and notify Congress regarding the intention of the President to increase a rate of duty on imported goods.Congress may nullify a rate of duty increase implemented under this bill through a joint resolution of disapproval.
