HR 5512: No Shari’a Act

This bill prohibits U.S. courts from enforcing judgments based on Shari'a or any foreign law if they conflict with constitutional rights, particularly in family law cases like divorce, child custody, or inheritance. It requires courts to apply only U.S. law when foreign legal systems would violate fundamental rights such as due process, equal protection, or freedom from coercion. Contracts may still reference foreign law, but enforcement is blocked if it infringes constitutional protections. The law aims to ensure all court decisions comply with U.S. constitutional standards nationwide.

HR 5455: Aviation Funding Stability Act of 2025

HR 5455, the Aviation Funding Stability Act of 2025, ensures continued operation of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) during government funding gaps. If Congress fails to pass regular appropriations or a continuing resolution before the new fiscal year begins, the bill allows the FAA to use existing funds from the Airport and Airway Trust Fund to maintain essential programs and airport infrastructure at the previous year’s funding level. This prevents shutdowns for FAA operations like air traffic control, airport grants, and safety programs for up to 30 days or until regular funding is enacted. The bill directly affects all FAA programs funded through the trust fund, including airport improvements and aviation safety initiatives, without creating new policies or altering funding levels.

HR 5492: PAAF Act

This bill, the Protect Adoptees and American Families Act (PAAF Act), automatically grants U.S. citizenship to certain internationally adopted children who meet specific criteria.

The key mechanism provides automatic citizenship for those already residing in the U.S. on the bill's effective date, and for those outside the U.S. upon lawful entry, subject to a criminal background check for visa issuance. It clarifies citizenship eligibility under immigration law without requiring additional naturalization steps for qualifying adoptees.
