Maddy summaryThe Disclosure of Tax Havens and Offshoring Act requires large multinational companies to publicly report their financial performance in every country where they operate. Specifically, it mandates that these firms submit detailed reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission showing revenues, profits, taxes paid, and employee counts for each jurisdiction. The law also requires this data to be provided in a machine-readable format and made available online for public access. Companies must follow specific rules for defining which entities and locations are included in these reports, with the Commission expected to issue final regulations within a year of the bill's enactment.
Maddy summaryThe Curtailing Executive Overcompensation (CEO) Act imposes a new excise tax on large companies where the highest-paid CEO earns significantly more than the median worker. This tax applies to employers with over $100 million in annual revenue and over $10 million in wages, charging a fee equal to the lesser of 1% of the pay gap or 1% of the company's gross receipts. The law defines the pay gap as the difference between the CEO's average compensation and 50 times the median wage of all employees earning at least $5,000, with thresholds adjusted for inflation after 2027. Companies found to be manipulating their workforce to avoid the tax could face joint liability, and the IRS will issue regulations to prevent such avoidance.
Maddy summaryThis joint resolution seeks to officially disapprove a specific rule issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services regarding the implementation of prior authorization for certain Medicare services. The proposed action would prevent the rule, known as the WISeR Model, from taking effect, thereby stopping the new requirements from being enforced. If passed, the resolution would nullify the regulation and maintain the status quo for the affected healthcare services.
Maddy summaryThe Luxury JET Act prohibits the use of a luxury aircraft donated by the Government of Qatar for the personal benefit of any President, their family members, or associates, even after their term ends. It also mandates that the Government Accountability Office conduct a detailed review of the aircraft donation to analyze potential conflicts of interest, the full cost to taxpayers, and the legality of accepting the gift under the Foreign Emoluments Clause. The report from this review must be submitted to congressional defense committees within 90 days and should include recommendations to improve laws regarding foreign gifts and prevent the misuse of taxpayer funds.
Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a comprehensive federal program to reduce medical errors and waste caused by misdiagnoses by funding research, developing new tools, and training healthcare professionals. It creates a new interagency council and research centers to study diagnostic failures, while also setting up a safe, voluntary reporting system for patients to share their experiences without fear of legal repercussions. The legislation authorizes funding over several years to support these initiatives, standardize medical data for better analysis, and ensure that patient perspectives are central to improving how diagnoses are made and managed across the healthcare system.
Maddy summaryThe Advanced Coursework Equity Act creates a federal grant program to help under-resourced schools increase access to advanced classes like Advanced Placement and gifted programs for students from historically underrepresented groups. To achieve this, the bill requires schools to use objective testing methods, such as universal screening, rather than relying solely on teacher recommendations to determine which students qualify for these courses. Funding is distributed to states, local school districts, and nonprofit organizations to support training for educators, expand course capacity, and provide tutoring, with a specific focus on improving outcomes in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The legislation mandates that recipients set specific enrollment goals for different student subgroups and report their progress to the Department of Education, while also offering bonus payments to those who make the most significant improvements in equity.
Maddy summaryThe Good Jobs for Good Airports Act establishes new federal standards to ensure that workers at small, medium, and large hub airports receive a living wage and adequate health benefits. It defines "covered service workers" to include employees in roles such as baggage handling, passenger assistance, security, ticketing, and concession services, regardless of whether they are directly hired by the airport or work for a contractor. Under the bill, employers must pay these workers at least the higher of the federal Service Contract Act wage rates or applicable state and local minimum wages, and they must provide similar fringe benefits. To enforce these rules, the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Transportation will have the authority to investigate violations, issue penalties, and require employers to submit monthly compliance certifications. Additionally, the law allows private individuals to file lawsuits against non-compliant employers and mandates annual reports to Congress on the implementation of these labor standards.
Maddy summaryThis joint resolution directs the President to remove United States Armed Forces from ongoing hostilities with Iran that were not previously authorized by Congress. The bill relies on the War Powers Resolution, asserting that military actions since February 2026 constitute unauthorized hostilities because no formal declaration of war or specific statutory authorization exists. While ordering a withdrawal, the measure explicitly allows the U.S. to continue defending against attacks on American personnel, sharing intelligence, assisting partner nations, and evacuating U.S. citizens. It applies expedited legislative procedures to ensure the directive is considered quickly by both the House and Senate.
Maddy summaryThis Senate resolution commemorates the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States while reaffirming a commitment to liberty and equality for all immigrant communities. It does not create new laws or change specific policies but instead expresses the Senate's support for expanding programs that help immigrants overcome barriers such as language difficulties and limited access to jobs or legal services. The text encourages collaboration with community organizations to ensure integration efforts are effective and urges government bodies at all levels to invest in initiatives that promote equity and inclusion. Ultimately, the resolution serves as a formal statement celebrating the contributions of immigrants and calling for a united future based on shared democratic ideals.
