The Heirs Education and Investment to Resolve Succession of Property Act extends and expands federal programs that help resolve ownership disputes on farmland, particularly when property is divided among multiple heirs. The bill reauthorizes the existing relending program through 2031 and creates a new initiative providing free legal and accounting services to low-income heirs, veterans, and members of disadvantaged groups who own shares of farmland or forest land but face barriers to using it productively or accessing farm programs. Eligible nonprofit organizations would enter into cooperative agreements with the Department of Agriculture to help these heirs resolve property claims, with agreements lasting up to four years and potentially renewable. The legislation authorizes $60 million annually from 2027 through 2031 for these legal services, with no more than 3 percent of those funds available for administrative costs, and requires the Department of Agriculture to submit annual reports to Congress on program progress and outcomes.

The Protecting Our Produce Act establishes a five-year pilot program requiring the U.S. Department of Agriculture to provide financial assistance to domestic farmers when imports drive down prices for certain seasonal and perishable crops. The program covers asparagus, bell peppers, blueberries, cucumbers, and squash that are sold fresh and marketed within four weeks of harvest. Eligible farmers must have average annual incomes below $5 million and derive at least 75 percent of their income from farming. When the national market price for a covered crop falls below its average price from the previous five years (excluding the highest and lowest years), affected farmers in that region can receive payments based on the price difference and their recent production levels. The bill authorizes $200 million annually to fund the pilot program from 2025 through 2030.

H.R. 5422 strengthens oversight of privately managed military housing by requiring more detailed and transparent reporting from the Department of Defense. The bill expands the existing semi-annual report on privatized military housing to include new requirements: an overview of what housing data the Department collects and what it seeks from management companies, an assessment of how military departments use this data to make decisions, an explanation of limitations in customer satisfaction surveys, and a breakdown of information by specific military installation and housing project. The legislation also requires the Department of Defense to publish these reports on its public website within 30 days of submission, making the information more accessible to service members, Congress, and the general public. The changes apply to all military branches and their privatized housing operations, with no specific funding or implementation timeline specified beyond the 30-day publication requirement.

This bill authorizes Congress to posthumously award a Congressional Gold Medal to former President Jimmy Carter in recognition of his service to the nation. The gold medal will be designed and struck by the Secretary of the Treasury and then given to the Carter Center in Atlanta, Georgia. The bill highlights Carter's accomplishments as the 39th president from 1977 to 1981—including foreign policy achievements like the Camp David Accords and the Panama Canal treaties, as well as domestic contributions such as the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act and the creation of the Department of Education and Energy. It also recognizes his post-presidency work with his wife Rosalynn through the Carter Center and Habitat for Humanity, including efforts that nearly eradicated Guinea worm disease and built over 4,400 homes worldwide. The costs of striking the medal will be paid from the U.S. Mint Public Enterprise Fund, and the Treasury Department may sell bronze duplicate medals to recover expenses.

Disabled Veterans Tax Termination Act This bill modifies provisions related to military retired pay. Specifically, the bill authorizes veterans with a service-connected disability of less than 50% to concurrently receive both retired pay and disability compensation.
