Promoting Resilient Supply Chains Act of 2025 This bill requires the Industry and Analysis office of the International Trade Administration of the Department of Commerce to monitor and respond to disruptions in critical industries and supply chains. Specifically, the office must (1) establish the Supply Chain Resilience Working Group; (2) assess, map, and model critical supply chains; (3) identify high-priority supply chain gaps and vulnerabilities in critical industries; (4) identify and evaluate the effect of potential supply chain disruptions on market stability; and (5) collaborate with other governmental bodies and key international partners to identify opportunities to reduce supply chain gaps and vulnerabilities. Additionally, the office, in consultation with the working group and specified nongovernmental entities, must make recommendations and implement a strategy to improve the security and resiliency of manufacturing capacity and supply chains for critical industries (including critical industries for emerging technologies). The bill includes various reporting requirements.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits federal government officials, including the President, Vice President, Members of Congress, and their employees, from using their official positions to profit from trading prediction market contracts based on material nonpublic information. It requires these covered individuals to report any prediction market transactions exceeding $250 to their supervising ethics office within 30 days, detailing the contract value, timing, platform, and profit or loss. The legislation establishes penalties of up to $500 or double the profit made for violations and mandates ethics offices to create implementation rules and publish procedures within 180 days of enactment.
Maddy summaryThis bill requires the U.S. Commerce Department to conduct a one-year review of how effectively the United States attracts foreign investment from companies in "trusted countries" (not deemed adversaries by the U.S.) and not controlled by foreign adversaries, with a focus on high-tech sectors like AI and digital trade. The review will analyze barriers such as data localization rules, intellectual property issues, and challenges from state-owned enterprises - especially those linked to the Chinese government - while assessing U.S. policies and global practices to improve investment appeal. It must also examine impacts on jobs, manufacturing, and supply chains, and avoid reviewing existing CFIUS (Committee on Foreign Investment) laws. The findings will be reported to Congress with recommendations to strengthen the U.S. investment climate without weakening security, labor, or environmental protections.
Maddy summaryS 921, titled "Tyler’s Law," requires the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to study how often hospital emergency departments test for fentanyl during overdose cases, along with the costs, benefits, privacy impacts, and effects on patient-clinician relationships. The study must examine current testing frequency, associated costs, and how fentanyl testing might influence patient privacy and care. Within six months of completing the study, the Secretary must issue guidance on whether hospitals should routinely test for fentanyl, how to inform clinicians about testing protocols, and how such testing might affect future overdose risks and health outcomes. This bill directly affects hospitals with emergency departments and patients experiencing overdoses, but it does not mandate testing - it only mandates a study and subsequent guidance.
Maddy summaryThis resolution honors the memory and sacrifice of six Air Force personnel who died in a KC-135 Stratotanker accident over Iraq on March 12, 2026. The bill formally recognizes the service members from Alabama and Ohio who were killed while supporting Operation Epic Fury. It expresses condolences to their families and directs a copy of the resolution to the two Air National Guard units where the fallen served. The measure serves as a commemorative gesture rather than establishing new policy or funding.
Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the Future of Artificial Intelligence Innovation Act of 2026, creates a new Center for Artificial Intelligence Standards and Innovation within the National Institute of Standards and Technology to develop voluntary testing standards, evaluation tools, and best practices for AI systems. The bill establishes testbed programs that allow companies of all sizes to access federal computing resources and facilities for testing AI technologies, while also creating international coalitions with like-minded countries to align on AI standards and security measures. It authorizes federal agencies to award prizes for solving specific AI challenges and requires a report identifying regulatory barriers that may hinder AI innovation. The legislation also expands hiring authority for technical experts and adds requirements for auditing temporary workers involved in AI research.
Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits public colleges and universities receiving federal funding from denying religious student groups access to campus facilities or official recognition solely because of their religious beliefs, practices, or standards. It directly affects public higher education institutions and religious student organizations seeking equal treatment alongside secular groups. The key mechanism requires institutions to provide religious groups with the same rights, benefits, and privileges - such as meeting space, event scheduling, and official status - as non-religious student organizations. This policy change ensures religious groups cannot be discriminated against in campus activities through the threat of withheld federal funding.
Maddy summaryThis bill, the Conscience Protection Act of 2025, strengthens protections for healthcare providers and organizations that refuse to participate in certain medical procedures (including abortion, assisted suicide, and sterilization) based on religious, moral, or ethical beliefs. It creates a private right of action allowing affected entities to seek legal remedies when their conscience rights are violated, addressing a gap in current law where victims could not defend their rights in court. The bill amends the Public Health Service Act to prohibit discrimination against such healthcare entities and establishes clearer enforcement mechanisms through the Department of Health and Human Services, including administrative investigations and civil actions. It directly affects healthcare providers, hospitals, insurers, and other health-related organizations operating under federal funding. The bill aims to address inconsistent enforcement of existing conscience protections like the Weldon Amendment, which has been challenged in cases such as California's abortion coverage mandate.
Maddy summaryThe National Biotechnology Initiative Act of 2025 establishes a coordinated Federal effort to advance biotechnology for national security, economic competitiveness, and innovation. It creates a National Biotechnology Coordination Office within the Executive Office of the President, led by a Director appointed by the President, to oversee coordination across 14 participating federal departments and agencies including Agriculture, Defense, Health and Human Services, and Energy. The bill requires the development of a national biotechnology strategy, regulatory streamlining for biotechnology products, workforce development programs, and improved public understanding of biotechnology (bioliteracy). It authorizes $22 million for fiscal year 2026, increasing to $35 million for 2027, with annual reports to Congress and a comprehensive national strategy required every five years. The Initiative will wind down after 20 years, transitioning to serve as an executive secretariat for ongoing biotechnology coordination.
Maddy summaryThis bill, titled the Stop Insider Trading Act, would restrict Members of Congress and their spouses and dependents from purchasing stocks in publicly traded companies. It requires these individuals to provide advance public notice at least seven days before selling any covered investments, with the notice filed with the Clerk of the House or Secretary of the Senate. The law includes exceptions for certain occupational transactions and reinvested dividends, and establishes penalties including fees and mandatory sales for violations.
