Maddy summaryThe Momnibus Act is a comprehensive legislative bill designed to improve maternal health outcomes across the United States by addressing social determinants of health, expanding access to care, and reducing disparities among pregnant and postpartum individuals. The bill establishes a federal task force to coordinate efforts between agencies and stakeholders to eliminate preventable maternal mortality and severe morbidity, while providing sustained funding to community-based organizations to address nonclinical factors like housing, nutrition, and transportation. Key provisions include extending WIC eligibility to 24 months postpartum, creating grants to grow and diversify the perinatal workforce, implementing respectful maternity care training for all healthcare employees, and establishing compliance programs to track and address bias in maternity care settings. The legislation also includes specific measures for incarcerated mothers, veterans, and vulnerable populations affected by climate change, alongside funding for maternal mental health services and technology-enabled care models to expand access in underserved areas.

Maddy summaryThis bill, the Original Additional Credit FHA Pilot Program Authorization Act, establishes a pilot program within the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) to allow prospective mortgage borrowers to voluntarily opt into a new credit scoring model. This model uses "additional data" beyond traditional credit reports to assess creditworthiness, aiming to help individuals with limited or no conventional credit history qualify for FHA-insured loans. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will select these new credit models and require lenders to inform borrowers about their options and how the pilot model differs. The program specifically prohibits its use for refinancing existing loans on the same property and mandates detailed reports to Congress on its effectiveness, demographic impact, and financial implications for the FHA's insurance fund.
Maddy summaryThis concurrent resolution (HCONRES 40) directs the President to remove U.S. military forces from hostilities with Iran, as required by the War Powers Resolution. It applies directly to U.S. Armed Forces deployed in conflict with Iran, except for forces needed to defend the U.S. or allies from imminent attack. The bill mandates removal unless the President complies with War Powers Resolution reporting requirements for self-defense actions, without needing new congressional authorization. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new law but compels executive action under existing legal framework.
Maddy summaryThis resolution formally impeaches Peter B. Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense, for six articles of high crimes and misdemeanors. The articles allege unauthorized military actions against Iran without congressional approval, violations of international law regarding civilian casualties, mishandling of classified information, obstruction of congressional oversight, politicization of military decisions, and discriminatory conduct toward service members based on gender, race, and sexual orientation. If the House votes to adopt this resolution, the matter would be sent to the Senate for a trial to determine whether Hegseth should be removed from office.
Maddy summaryThis bill reauthorizes and modifies an existing Federal Housing Administration (FHA) pilot program designed to help prospective homebuyers, particularly those with limited credit history, qualify for mortgages. It allows the FHA to use credit scoring models that incorporate "additional data" (beyond traditional credit reports) for borrowers who voluntarily choose to participate, aiming to assess their creditworthiness more comprehensively. The legislation requires the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development to select these models, ensure lenders provide clear information to borrowers about their options, and specifically prevents the program from being used for refinancing existing loans. It also mandates detailed reports to Congress on the pilot's effectiveness and impact, extending the program for an additional five years.
Maddy summaryThe Reforming Disaster Recovery Act establishes a new Long-Term Disaster Recovery Fund to provide grants for housing, infrastructure, and economic revitalization in areas most affected by catastrophic major disasters. This legislation creates a new Office of Disaster Management and Resiliency within the Department of Housing and Urban Development to coordinate recovery efforts and ensures that at least 70 percent of the funding benefits low- and moderate-income households. The bill also introduces a formula-based allocation system that includes a specific portion of funds for mitigation activities designed to reduce future disaster risks and requires strict reporting to prevent the duplication of benefits with other federal aid.
Maddy summaryThis resolution formally recognizes April 10 as Dolores Huerta Day to honor the civil rights and labor leader's legacy. It does not create a federal holiday or change laws but expresses the House of Representatives' support for the designation. The text highlights Huerta's contributions to farm workers' rights, women's equality, and Latino political representation through a series of "whereas" clauses detailing her achievements. The resolution serves as a commemorative statement rather than a policy change, directing no new actions or funding.
Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a 17-member Commission on Presidential Capacity to Discharge the Powers and Duties of the Office. This commission, composed primarily of medical professionals and former high-ranking executive officials, would be activated by a concurrent resolution of Congress. Its duty would be to conduct a medical examination of the President to determine if they are mentally or physically unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office due to conditions such as illness, disability, or substance use. Following the examination, the commission would report its findings and a declaration on the President's capacity to Congress and the Vice President, with any refusal by the President to undergo examination taken into consideration.
Maddy summaryThis resolution formally condemns Representative Andy Ogles for posting a statement on March 9, 2026, claiming that Muslims do not belong in American society. The document outlines findings that describe Islam as a faith promoting peace, equality, and justice, while asserting that opposing pluralism based on racial demographics is hateful. It also notes that the House of Representatives has referred the matter to the Committee on Ethics for review. The resolution does not impose penalties but serves as an official statement of the House's position on the representative's comments.
Maddy summaryThis concurrent resolution formally recognizes the ongoing disparity between wages paid to men and women in the United States and reaffirms Congress's commitment to supporting equal pay. It highlights statistical data showing that women earn approximately 81 cents for every dollar earned by men, with significant variations across racial and ethnic groups, and notes that the gender wage gap has widened over the past two years. The document also identifies contributing factors such as occupational segregation, lack of family-friendly workplace policies, and workplace harassment, while emphasizing the economic impact on women's retirement security and family incomes.
