HR 7919: Gas Prices Relief Act of 2026

The Gas Prices Relief Act of 2026 would temporarily suspend federal gasoline taxes and the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund financing rate from its enactment until October 1, 2026, aiming to reduce costs for consumers who purchase gasoline. Specifically, it sets the federal excise tax on gasoline to zero during this period. To prevent funding shortfalls, the bill directs the Treasury to transfer equivalent amounts from the general fund to the Highway Trust Fund and the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund. It also includes a policy that the tax reduction should be passed on to consumers and empowers the Secretary of the Treasury to ensure this, potentially through monetary penalties for producers and dealers who do not reduce prices.

Funds can be used to establish new testing capabilities, expand surveillance in rural areas and facilities without proper wastewater treatment, and implement evidence-based monitoring practices. The bill also mandates the creation of technical assistance programs and standardized testing guidelines to ensure consistent data collection and reporting across all participating jurisdictions.

The legislation also expands coverage for diabetes self-management training services, removes deductibles for these services, and authorizes virtual training options. Additionally, it directs the government to study barriers to diabetes care access and establish new billing codes for insulin pump training services.

S 4030: Supporting After-School STEM Educators Act

This bill establishes a grant program to provide professional development scholarships for educators working in after-school, summer, and other out-of-school time programs, with a focus on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics subjects. The Department of Labor would award grants to intermediary organizations, which would then distribute funds to program providers to help pay for educator training, coaching, and related costs. The program prioritizes serving communities with historically underinvested STEM resources and aims to support educators in gaining STEM credentials and improving their wages. Intermediaries receiving grants must also create centralized databases of training opportunities and facilitate peer networks for educators. The funding is authorized for five-year periods, with requirements for regular reporting on program effectiveness and educator retention.

S 4029: A bill to reinforce the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 by establishing a limitations period of 10 years for antibribery offenses, and for other purposes.

The law would apply to all such offenses committed after the bill's enactment, except those occurring within five years before the law takes effect. The provision includes a sunset clause, meaning it would expire eight years after being enacted.
