HR 10349: EMT Act

The Emergency Responders Mental Health Training Act directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to create a pilot fellowship program that funds postbaccalaureate training for mental health and substance use disorder professionals. This initiative aims to increase the number of culturally competent practitioners who understand the unique stressors, duties, and confidentiality requirements faced by emergency response providers such as police, firefighters, and EMTs. The bill authorizes $10 million in annual appropriations for fiscal years 2028 through 2033 to support these fellowships across fields including psychiatry, nursing, social work, and psychology. Additionally, the Secretary must submit reports to Congress two and five years after the program's establishment to evaluate its efficiency, impact on patient outcomes, and overall effectiveness.

HR 10348: Health Care Fraud Prevention and Enforcement Act

The Health Care Fraud Prevention and Enforcement Act increases federal funding for anti-fraud programs within the Departments of Justice and Health and Human Services, with specific budget allocations rising through 2029 and adjusting annually for inflation thereafter. The bill expands the investigative authority of the HHS Office of Inspector General to include programs established under the Affordable Care Act and incorporates the State Children's Health Insurance Program into existing data matching efforts. It also clarifies that "health plan" definitions cover both public and private delivery systems and ensures that funding use does not limit agencies' ability to prosecute fraud or communicate with the public. Additionally, the legislation requires an annual report to Congress by April 1, mandates notice if the report is delayed, and directs the Government Accountability Office to conduct a study on the program's effectiveness within 16 months of enactment.

HR 10330: Higher Education Oversight for Nonprofits Ensuring Standards and Transparency Act

This bill establishes new procedural safeguards for the Internal Revenue Service when conducting tax inquiries or examinations of universities, requiring high-level Treasury approval based on reasonable belief that a university may not qualify for tax-exempt status. It mandates that the IRS provide written notice to the institution before beginning an inquiry and at least 15 days before starting a formal examination, offering the university the opportunity to hold a conference to discuss concerns.

Additionally, it requires the Secretary of the Treasury to submit confidential reports to congressional committees detailing any new university tax investigations.

HR 10260: Reducing Arbitrary Barriers to Apprenticeship Act of 2026

The Reducing Arbitrary Barriers to Apprenticeship Act of 2026 amends federal veterans' education benefits to remove financial and administrative obstacles for those pursuing apprenticeships or on-the-job training. The bill increases the monthly housing stipend for full-time apprentices to match the rate paid to military members with dependents, rather than the lower rate currently applied to students without dependents. Additionally, it waives the minimum monthly attendance requirement for veterans enrolled in construction industry programs, allowing them to receive benefits even if their on-site training hours fall below standard thresholds. These changes apply to recipients of Post-9/11 GI Bill, All-Volunteer Force, and Selected Reserve educational assistance.
