Maddy summaryThe Justice for Ukrainian Children Act directs the U.S. government to support efforts to locate and rescue Ukrainian children forcibly transferred by Russia, while imposing mandatory sanctions on foreign individuals who facilitate these transfers. The bill authorizes at least $15 million annually from fiscal years 2027 through 2032 to fund evidence collection, maintain a centralized database, and assist in the rehabilitation of affected children. It requires the President to block the assets and revoke the visas of any foreign person found to have knowingly participated in the abduction or indoctrination of Ukrainian minors, with limited exceptions for humanitarian aid and national security needs. Additionally, the legislation allocates $10 million annually to expand U.S. media broadcasting services in Ukraine and neighboring regions to counter disinformation.

Maddy summaryThis bill would require Medicare to cover early detection screening tests for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias starting January 1, 2028. It defines eligible tests as FDA-cleared genomic blood tests, blood product analyses, or equivalent medical imaging methods (like protein expression or whole genome sequencing) that detect pre-symptomatic or early-stage conditions. Medicare beneficiaries would receive this coverage without cost-sharing for these specific screenings. The bill amends Medicare coverage rules to explicitly include these tests under Section 1861(nnn) of the Social Security Act.

Maddy summaryThis bill creates a 6-year Medicare pilot program providing medically tailored home-delivered meals and nutrition counseling to specific high-risk Medicare patients after hospital discharge. It targets individuals with diet-impacted conditions (like diabetes or heart failure) who live at home, have limited mobility, and are at high risk of hospital readmission. Selected hospitals must meet quality standards, screen patients using approved tools, and deliver at least two meals daily meeting nutritional needs while respecting cultural/religious dietary requirements, all without patient cost-sharing. The program requires hospitals to submit data for the Secretary to evaluate health outcomes, readmission rates, and cost savings compared to non-participants. Funding comes from the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund, offset by reductions to other hospital payments to maintain budget neutrality.
