Maddy summaryHR 5107, the Common-Sense Law Enforcement and Accountability Now in DC Act (CLEAN DC Act), repeals D.C. Law 24-345 (the 2022 Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act). This bill directly affects Washington, D.C.'s policing and justice systems by reversing all changes made under that 2022 law. The key mechanism is a straightforward repeal, restoring all prior District laws as if the 2022 reform had never been enacted. The bill does not introduce new provisions but undoes existing reforms to the District’s law enforcement framework.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends Section 2119 of Title 18 (carjacking statute) to clarify the legal definition of the offense. It removes the phrase "with the intent to cause death or serious bodily harm" from the main definition, replacing it with "knowingly," and refines the death penalty provision to specify that death must result from a carjacking taken with the intent to cause death or serious bodily harm. The change streamlines the statute by focusing on the act of taking a vehicle "knowingly" rather than requiring proof of intent to cause harm as a core element. This technical amendment affects how federal prosecutors define and prosecute carjacking cases under existing law.

Maddy summaryHRES 888 is a proposed resolution to formally censure and condemn Delegate Stacey Plaskett for coordinating with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender, during a February 2019 congressional hearing. The resolution claims Plaskett received real-time text messages from Epstein with instructions on her questioning during the hearing. If passed, the resolution would remove Plaskett from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and direct the Committee on Ethics to investigate her ties to Epstein. This action directly affects Plaskett, the Delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands, and addresses alleged misconduct during official congressional proceedings.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to add new grounds for deporting non-citizens. It makes any non-citizen deportable if they have been convicted of a felony or two misdemeanors (under either state or federal law) after entering the United States. The key provision expands deportation eligibility beyond previous standards by explicitly including state misdemeanor convictions alongside federal offenses. This change directly affects non-citizens with specific criminal records, potentially increasing deportation risks for those with certain convictions. The policy alters the legal standard for removal but does not change sentencing or enforcement procedures.

Maddy summaryHRES 866 is a non-binding House resolution condemning the systematic persecution of Christians in Nigeria by groups like Boko Haram and Fulani militants, and criticizing Nigeria's government for failing to protect Christian communities or acknowledge the violence. It calls on the U.S. government to support President Trump in using diplomatic, economic, and security tools to pressure Nigeria to end impunity for attacks, protect Christians, return displaced persons, and repeal blasphemy laws. The resolution specifically demands action against religiously motivated violence, including the release of those imprisoned for their faith, and urges coordination with international partners for humanitarian aid. It does not create new laws but expresses congressional support for U.S. policy actions targeting Nigeria's religious freedom violations.

Maddy summaryHR 5968, the Promoting Classical Learning Act of 2025, requires military service academies to accept scores from the Classic Learning Test (CLT) alongside the SAT or ACT for applicant admissions. It also mandates that Department of Defense Education Activity (DODEA) schools administer the CLT to all 11th graders. Additionally, the bill requires tribally controlled schools and Bureau of Indian Education (BIE)-operated schools to give the CLT to 11th graders. The bill directly affects applicants to military service academies and 11th-grade students in these specific federal school systems.

Maddy summaryHR 5969, the LABEL Act, requires abortion-inducing drugs to include specific labeling identifying both the drug dispenser's name/address and the prescriber's name. It directly affects pharmacies, clinics, and prescribers distributing these drugs by mandating this labeling on all such products. The bill prohibits states from imposing stricter labeling rules than this federal standard. It defines "abortion-inducing drug" as one intended or used to end a pregnancy (excluding drugs for miscarriage management or ectopic pregnancy treatment). This is a labeling requirement, not a restriction on drug access or use.

Maddy summaryHRES 858 is a resolution by the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach Chief Judge James E. Boasberg of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. It alleges he abused his authority by issuing "frivolous" nondisclosure orders that prevented Members of Congress from being notified of legal process and covered conservative organizations and individuals. These orders, the resolution claims, violated constitutional protections for Congress and a federal law (2 U.S.C. § 6628) safeguarding Senate communications. The resolution would send the impeachment charge to the U.S. Senate for trial, seeking removal from office.

Maddy summaryHRES 842 is a non-binding resolution expressing the House's support for placing a statue of Charles "Charlie" James Kirk in the Capitol's House wing. It honors Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA and a conservative political figure assassinated in 2025, for his advocacy of free expression, civic engagement, and conservative principles. The resolution directs the House Fine Arts Board to accept the statue and display it permanently by January 2, 2027, though actual placement remains subject to the Board's approval. This is a symbolic gesture to commemorate Kirk's legacy, not a new law with policy impacts.

Maddy summaryThis bill ensures that critical firearm-related government operations continue during federal shutdowns. It designates background checks (via the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives enforcement, and firearm export licensing (handled by Commerce and State Departments) as essential services that must remain operational. These functions would be treated as "excepted" under federal law, meaning their employees would continue working even if other government services halt. The bill affects how background checks and firearm export licenses are processed during shutdowns but does not change gun ownership laws or eligibility.
