SRES 40: A resolution commemorating the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz extermination camp in Nazi-occupied Poland and International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

This Senate resolution (SRES 40) commemorates January 27, 2025 - the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz by Allied Forces - and designates it as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It calls on all U.S. citizens to remember the 1.1 million victims murdered at Auschwitz during the Holocaust, honor Holocaust survivors, and commit to combating antisemitism and promoting tolerance. As a symbolic resolution, it does not create new laws or directly affect any group but formally recognizes historical events and urges continued education about the Holocaust's lessons.

SCONRES 6: A concurrent resolution expressing the sense of Congress that tax-exempt fraternal benefit societies have historically provided and continue to provide critical benefits to the people and communities of the United States.

This concurrent resolution expresses Congress's sense that tax-exempt fraternal benefit societies - organizations providing life, health, and accident benefits to members - have historically and continue to deliver significant community benefits through charitable programs, volunteer efforts, and mutual aid. It highlights their role in addressing unmet community needs, supporting financial security for members, and contributing an estimated $3.8 billion annually in social value. The resolution affirms that their tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code is essential to sustaining these services. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new law but formally recognizes these societies' contributions.

S 253: Abortion Is Not Health Care Act of 2025

This bill changes U.S. tax law by removing abortion expenses from the list of medical costs taxpayers can deduct. It specifically states that amounts paid for abortions cannot be counted toward medical expense deductions on federal tax returns, affecting individuals who pay for abortions and might have claimed them as deductible medical expenses. Exceptions apply for abortions needed to treat life-endangering physical conditions related to pregnancy, or in cases of rape or incest, as certified by a physician. The law would take effect for tax years beginning after its enactment. This is a tax policy change, not a restriction on abortion access.

S 250: Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance Act

Protecting Life in Foreign Assistance Act This bill prohibits the provision of funding for purposes outside the United States to certain foreign or domestic organizations that perform or promote abortions, furnish or develop items intended to procure abortions, or provide financial support for an entity that conducts such activities.

S 251: Protecting Life in Health Savings Accounts Act

This bill restricts health savings accounts (HSAs), Archer MSAs, health flexible spending accounts, and health reimbursement arrangements from covering most abortion expenses. It allows exceptions only for abortions resulting from rape or incest, or when a pregnancy poses a life-endangering risk to the woman (as certified by a physician). The law amends tax code provisions to exclude non-exempt abortion costs from being treated as qualified medical expenses for tax purposes. These changes take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, directly affecting individuals using these specific tax-advantaged health accounts.

HR 724: CBO Show Your Work Act

This bill requires the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to publicly publish the models, data, and detailed methodology it uses to estimate the costs and effects of legislation. Specifically, it mandates that the CBO make available all fiscal models, data routines, and the underlying assumptions behind its cost estimates, allowing independent verification. This applies to all CBO analyses of proposed bills, including the specific data and computational details needed for others to replicate the results. The requirement applies to all users of CBO reports - lawmakers, researchers, and the public - except for data legally restricted from disclosure, which would still require a public list of variables and descriptive statistics.

HR 21: Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act

HR 21, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, requires medical staff at abortion facilities to provide the same immediate care and hospital admission to any infant born alive during an abortion as they would for any newborn. It mandates reporting failures to provide this care to law enforcement and imposes penalties of up to 5 years in prison for violations, with harsher penalties for intentional killing. The bill also allows women who undergo abortions to sue for civil damages, including triple the abortion cost, and provides for attorney fees. It defines "abortion" to exclude procedures performed after viability to preserve a live birth. This law directly affects healthcare providers at abortion facilities and creates new federal legal obligations for them.

S 199: A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide special rules for the taxation of certain residents of Taiwan with income from sources within the United States.

S 199 would create special tax rules for "qualified residents of Taiwan" with income from U.S. sources. It would lower tax rates on interest, dividends, and royalties from 30% to 10% (15% for some dividends), provide tax relief for certain wages paid to Taiwan residents working in the U.S., and exempt income from entertainment or athletic activities up to $30,000. The bill establishes specific requirements for entities to qualify for these benefits, including ownership and income criteria. It also creates a process for the U.S. to negotiate a formal tax agreement with Taiwan to further address double taxation concerns.

S 204: Families’ Rights and Responsibilities Act

This bill declares parental authority over a child's education, upbringing, and health care as a fundamental constitutional right. It requires government agencies at all levels to demonstrate a compelling interest and use the least restrictive means before interfering with these parental decisions - defining a "substantial burden" as actions like withholding benefits or imposing penalties that constrain parental choices. Exceptions apply only when parental decisions risk serious physical harm or end a child's life. The law applies to all federal and state government actions affecting these rights, adding parental claims to existing legal frameworks like the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

S 205: Protecting Individuals with Down Syndrome Act

Protecting Individuals with Down Syndrome Act This bill creates new federal crimes related to the performance of an abortion on an unborn child who has Down syndrome. It subjects a violator to criminal penalties—a fine, a prison term of up to five years, or both. It also authorizes civil remedies, including damages and injunctive relief. A woman who undergoes such an abortion may not be prosecuted or held civilly liable.

S 207: Protecting Life on College Campus Act of 2025

This bill prohibits federal funding (directly or indirectly) for colleges and universities that host or are affiliated with campus health clinics providing abortion drugs or abortions to students or staff. Institutions must submit annual reports certifying no such services are offered to remain eligible for federal funds. The law also prevents states from penalizing schools for complying with this funding restriction. It specifically defines "abortion drugs" and "school-based service sites" (excluding hospitals) to clarify coverage.

S 212: POLICE Act of 2025

This bill amends immigration law to make non-citizens subject to deportation if convicted of assaulting a law enforcement officer, firefighter, or first responder while they were performing official duties, due to their duties, or because of their status. It defines "assault" under local law and expands "law enforcement officer" to include those preventing, investigating, or prosecuting crimes. The bill also requires the Department of Homeland Security to annually report the number of such deportations to Congress and the public. The policy directly affects non-citizens convicted of qualifying assaults against covered personnel, with no new enforcement mechanisms beyond existing deportation procedures.
