HRES 1548: Supporting the designation of September 19, 2026, as "National Stillbirth Prevention and Awareness Day", recognizing tens of thousands of families in the United States that have endured a stillbirth, and seizing the opportunity to keep other families from experiencing the same tragedy.

This House resolution supports designating September 19, 2026, as National Stillbirth Prevention and Awareness Day to honor families affected by stillbirth and promote efforts to prevent future losses. The bill highlights that over 20,000 pregnancies in the United States end in stillbirth annually, noting significant racial disparities in these outcomes.

HR 10473: Justice for Ukrainian Children Act

The 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.

HR 10455: Debt-Free College Act of 2026

The Debt-Free College Act of 2026 establishes a state-federal partnership that provides federal grants to states to cover the unmet financial need of eligible students attending in-state public colleges, effectively making tuition debt-free for those who qualify. To participate, states must commit to capping tuition increases at inflation levels, maintaining their current level of funding for higher education, and implementing student success programs that support low-income and underserved populations. The bill also creates a separate five-year grant program for specific minority-serving institutions and tribal colleges to help them cover student costs, while simultaneously expanding federal financial aid eligibility to include "Dreamer students" who entered the United States as minors under certain conditions.

HR 10448: Reverse Big Ugly Tax Breaks for Data Centers Act

The Reverse Big Ugly Tax Breaks for Data Centers Act removes specific tax incentives for large-scale data centers and artificial intelligence facilities. It excludes these facilities from bonus depreciation, a provision that currently allows businesses to deduct the full cost of certain equipment in the year it is purchased. Additionally, the bill prevents these properties from qualifying as opportunity zone business property, which would otherwise offer significant tax benefits for investments in designated areas. The legislation targets structures with a power capacity exceeding 50 megawatts that are dedicated to data storage, processing, or AI operations.

HR 10440: REACH Act

The REACH Act creates a new $10,000 annual tax credit for eligible rural health care providers who work at least 900 hours in a rural area. This benefit applies to primary care practitioners, mental health professionals, nurses, and medical residents participating in approved training programs. The credit is subject to an income limit, reducing the amount by $1 for every dollar of adjusted gross income over $170,000 until it reaches zero. These provisions are set to take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2026, and will expire for years beginning after December 31, 2033.

HR 10433: SAFE Platforms Act

The SAFE Platforms Act requires large online platforms to implement specific measures to prevent consumer fraud, including mandatory reporting buttons for scams, stricter default privacy settings that hide user information from strangers, and robust identity verification for advertisers in high-risk categories like finance or health. The bill grants the Federal Trade Commission enforcement powers to treat violations as unfair or deceptive practices, while also allowing state attorneys general and individual consumers to file lawsuits for damages. To qualify for legal protection under this law, platforms must review reported fraudulent content within 48 hours and take action within seven days, though they are not required to monitor all content before it is posted.

HR 10426: Backlog Justice Act of 2026

The Backlog Justice Act of 2026 aims to reduce the backlog of untested sexual assault evidence kits by requiring the Attorney General to create a public database tracking inventory levels and laboratory processing times across state and local jurisdictions. To address staffing shortages, the bill authorizes the FBI to develop training programs for forensic analysts and DNA technical leaders, allowing states and localities to hire individuals who have completed this federal training. Additionally, it funds a program for the FBI to collaborate with state and local providers on validating new DNA processing technologies and sharing related protocols. The legislation also provides increased grant funding to states that implement electronic tracking systems allowing sexual assault survivors to monitor the status of their evidence kits from collection through final disposition.

HR 10419: SMILE for Veterans Act

The SMILE for Veterans Act directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to launch a three-year pilot program that provides dental care to eligible veterans living in rural areas who currently lack access to standard departmental services. The program operates by reimbursing or contracting with community-based providers, such as mobile clinics, nonprofit organizations, and private practices, to deliver basic preventive, restorative, and urgent dental treatments. Eligibility extends to veterans enrolled in the VA system who reside in designated rural areas and are either not otherwise eligible for dental care or unable to reach existing facilities within standard timeframes, with specific provisions allowing homeless veterans to qualify through alternative verification methods. The bill authorizes $5 million for program setup in fiscal year 2027 and $20 million annually for the following three years, while also establishing an internal working group to evaluate access barriers and requiring a final report to Congress on the pilot's effectiveness.

HR 10415: Food for Thought Act of 2026

The Food for Thought Act of 2026 establishes a competitive grant program administered by the Department of Agriculture to provide free meals and snacks to low-income college students at eligible institutions, including community colleges, historically Black colleges and universities, and other minority-serving schools. To qualify, an institution must have at least 20 percent of its undergraduate students eligible for Federal Pell Grants, and grants are awarded for a maximum duration of two years with funds restricted to meal preparation, outreach, and limited equipment purchases. Recipients are required to prioritize students who receive Pell Grants or report food insecurity, while also evaluating institutional policies that may create barriers to enrollment and referring students to other federal benefit programs like SNAP. The bill authorizes appropriations for fiscal years 2027 through 2032 and mandates that the Secretary of Agriculture submit reports to Congress on the program's impact on student retention and completion rates.

HR 10414: Community Health Worker Access Act

The Community Health Worker Access Act would add community health services to Medicare Part B starting in 2027, allowing beneficiaries to receive these services without paying a deductible and with costs covered at 100 percent of the lesser of the actual charge or a government-set fee schedule. The bill defines eligible services as preventive care and support for social determinants of health, such as transportation assistance, case management, and culturally specific outreach, provided by qualified community health agencies under the supervision of licensed medical providers. Additionally, it gives states an optional pathway to cover similar services through Medicaid, offering a 6 percentage point increase in federal matching funds to help offset state costs for these workforce-supported programs.
