This bill transfers approximately 1,082.63 acres of federal land in Washington state into trust for the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe, making it part of their reservation. The land, depicted on a specific map related to Olympic National Park, will be managed under certain river protection rules. The bill explicitly states this land cannot be used for tribal gaming under federal law. It also confirms the transfer does not affect the tribe's existing treaty rights under the 1855 Treaty of Point No Point.
This bill (S 917) designates the U.S. Postal Service facility at 620 East Pecan Boulevard in McAllen, Texas, as the "Agent Raul H. Gonzalez Jr. Memorial Post Office." It directly affects the McAllen post office location and all official U.S. government references to that facility. The bill updates all federal documents, maps, and records to use the new name, replacing the previous designation. No new policies or funding are created - this is purely a commemorative name change honoring Agent Raul H. Gonzalez Jr.

This bill, the GOOD Act (Guidance Out Of Darkness Act), requires federal agencies to publish all their non-binding guidance documents - such as memos, bulletins, letters, and blog posts - on a single, publicly accessible government website. It applies to all federal agencies and mandates that existing guidance be posted within 180 days of the law's enactment, with new guidance published immediately upon issuance. Agencies must also maintain rescinded guidance documents online with clear labels indicating they are no longer in effect. The law does not apply to documents already exempt from public disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
This bill (S 236) amends the Long-Term Leasing Act to allow the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe and the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah) to lease reservation and trust land for up to 99 years. It directly affects these two federally recognized tribes by expanding their authority to lease tribal land under the existing leasing framework. The key provision modifies the 1955 Act to specifically include their lands in the leasing authority, replacing a reference to the Chehalis Reservation. This change would enable tribes to enter longer-term leases for economic development or other purposes on their designated lands.
This bill allows Congress to disapprove multiple federal regulations issued near the end of a presidential term in a single resolution, rather than requiring separate resolutions for each rule.

The key mechanism enables a single joint resolution to list and invalidate multiple rules at once, as specified in the bill's provisions.
