HR 3276: Local Communities & Bird Habitat Stewardship Act of 2026

The Local Communities & Bird Habitat Stewardship Act of 2025 establishes the Urban Bird Treaty Program, which provides grants and technical assistance to local groups - including cities, nonprofits, community organizations, and academic institutions - to protect and restore urban bird habitats.

This directly affects pilots seeking or holding medical certifications by providing clear, accessible information about medication use in aviation.

HJRES 215: Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement of the Department of Homeland Security relating to "Establishing a Fixed Time Period of Admission and an Extension of Stay Procedure for Nonimmigrant Academic Students, Exchange Visitors, and Representatives of Foreign Information Media".

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a Department of Homeland Security rule that would establish fixed time periods for admission and specific extension procedures for nonimmigrant academic students, exchange visitors, and representatives of foreign information media. If enacted, the bill would prevent this immigration regulation from taking effect, thereby maintaining the existing framework for how these individuals manage their stay in the United States. The measure directly affects international students, cultural exchange participants, and foreign journalists by blocking changes to their visa duration limits and renewal processes.

S 5394: Hands Off Our Great Lakes Act

The Hands Off Our Great Lakes Act prohibits the President and federal officials from changing the official names of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. It specifically nullifies Executive Order 14422, which sought to rename Lake Ontario as Lake America, and bars any similar future executive actions.

S 5393: FABRIC Act

The FABRIC Act amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to prohibit piece-rate pay for garment industry workers, requiring employers to pay at least the federal minimum hourly wage while still allowing incentive bonuses. It introduces joint and several liability for brand guarantors, making them financially responsible for labor law violations committed by their contractors or subcontractors, with an affirmative defense available if the brand can prove it had no knowledge of the violation. To enhance oversight, the bill mandates that garment manufacturers and contractors register annually with the Department of Labor, providing detailed information about ownership and employee history in exchange for a certificate that must be posted on-site. The legislation also establishes a new Undersecretary of the Garment Industry within the Department of Labor and authorizes $100 million in competitive grants to support domestic manufacturing, workforce development, and facility improvements.

S 5390: End Trump’s Tariff Tax Act

The End Trump's Tariff Tax Act terminates specific import duties imposed under recent trade investigations and repeals two statutory authorities used to impose tariffs for forced labor violations, balance-of-payments issues, and foreign discrimination. The bill requires the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner to automatically refund all duties collected during specified periods in 2026, along with interest, without requiring importers to submit formal requests or documentation. Importers who paid these tariffs will receive their money back, with small businesses prioritized for payment where practicable.

S 5386: Don’t STEAL Act

The Don't STEAL Act amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to require employers to pay workers at least the higher amount specified in their employment contracts or by federal and state wage laws, ensuring that contractual agreements are not undercut by statutory minimums. This provision directly affects employees engaged in commerce who have signed contracts promising specific compensation rates. The bill also establishes criminal penalties for willful wage theft, allowing for fines and imprisonment of up to five years if the unpaid wages exceed $1,000, or one year if they do not. Additionally, it directs that any fines collected from these violations be used by the Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division to fund further enforcement efforts.
