Maddy summaryThis bill expands federal election laws to prevent foreign nationals from influencing U.S. elections by tightening restrictions on domestic companies with significant foreign ownership or control. It requires businesses that are at least 50% owned by foreign individuals, or those with specific foreign influence, to file a sworn certification proving they are not foreign-controlled before making any political donations or spending money on election activities. Additionally, the law clarifies that these rules apply to state and local ballot initiatives and mandates that corporate political action funds certify their managers and board members are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. The legislation also prohibits recipients of funds from these businesses from using the money for further political contributions unless they receive and verify the required compliance certification.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes a temporary funding mechanism for the United States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund by requiring the Treasury Department to loan $3 billion annually to the fund for fiscal years 2027, 2028, and 2029. The borrowed money must be distributed immediately to victims as part of the annual payment and cannot be saved for future use. Interest on these loans will be set by the Treasury based on market rates and will be repaid only from future fines and penalties collected from state sponsors of terrorism after the fund ends. The authority to make these loans expires on September 30, 2029, and the funds are treated as direct spending rather than new appropriations.

Maddy summaryThe AADAPT Act reauthorizes and expands Project ECHO grants to improve Alzheimer’s and dementia care through technology-enabled training.

Maddy summaryHR 2821, the FDA Modernization Act 3.0, requires the FDA to update regulatory language within one year of enactment. It directs the agency to replace all references to "animal tests" with "nonclinical tests" in 22 specific sections of the Code of Federal Regulations related to drug development and approval processes. The bill also adds a definition for "nonclinical test" into relevant FDA regulations to align with prior legislative changes. This update applies directly to pharmaceutical manufacturers and FDA reviewers who follow these regulatory guidelines during drug development. The changes aim to modernize terminology without altering current testing requirements.

Maddy summaryThe Judicial Integrity Act amends federal law to clarify which judges and Supreme Court justices must recuse themselves from cases involving personal financial interests. It requires that any exemptions from these conflict-of-interest rules be established through a formal regulation issued by the Judicial Conference of the United States, which must include public notice and a comment period. This change ensures that decisions about whether a financial interest is too small to matter are made transparently rather than through individual waivers. The bill directly affects all federal judges and Supreme Court justices by tightening the standards for when they can participate in cases where they have a financial stake.

Maddy summaryThe Justice is BLIND Act of 2026 requires federal judges, including justices, magistrate judges, and bankruptcy judges, along with their spouses and dependent children, to place specific financial investments into qualified blind trusts within 90 days of taking office or enactment.

The bill also mandates that these judges publicly attest to the establishment of the trust or confirm they hold no covered financial interests, with these reports made available online. Additionally, the law prohibits judges from dissolving or controlling these trusts for 180 days after they leave their judicial positions to prevent immediate conflicts of interest.

Maddy summaryThis bill expands the Freedom of Information Act to require federal courts to release specific records upon public request. It mandates the disclosure of attorney disciplinary actions, complaints against judges, meeting minutes, jury selection forms, and performance reports, while explicitly excluding information related to ongoing cases. The legislation also requires that released data be in a machine-readable format and authorizes funding to establish an office within the Administrative Office of the United States Courts to manage these new requirements.
