S 5363: New Source Review Permitting Improvement Act

The New Source Review Permitting Improvement Act amends the Clean Air Act to clarify when industrial facilities must obtain permits for changes that could increase air pollution. It defines a "modification" as a change that raises the maximum hourly emission rate of a pollutant compared to the highest level achievable in the preceding ten years, while explicitly excluding projects designed to improve safety, reliability, or reduce emissions per unit of production unless they pose an adverse health or environmental risk. Additionally, the bill narrows the scope of "construction" to physical work on specific emissions-generating parts of a facility, ensuring that other costly or permanent on-site activities do not automatically trigger permitting requirements if they do not result in a significant increase in actual annual emissions.

S 5362: Assuring the Future of Tibet Act of 2026

The Assuring the Future of Tibet Act of 2026 directs the U.S. government to treat the Central Tibetan Administration as the legitimate representative of the Tibetan people and to actively support their right to self-determination. The bill requires the Secretary of State to engage with Tibetan leadership at senior diplomatic levels, extend appropriate courtesies to their officials, and advocate for the administration’s observer status within the United Nations and other international bodies. Additionally, it mandates that the President use U.S. influence at the UN to support these efforts and requires the Department of State to submit annual reports to Congress detailing the implementation of these diplomatic initiatives for ten years.

S 5361: MMU Rural Expansion Act of 2026

The Mobile Medical Unit Rural Expansion Act of 2026 directs the Department of Veterans Affairs to designate a specific office to oversee its mobile medical unit program and conduct a nationwide inventory of these vehicles. The bill requires the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to assess the feasibility of mandating annual deployments of these units to rural or underserved areas to improve healthcare access for veterans. Additionally, it mandates a comprehensive report to Congress identifying gaps in current capabilities, staffing, and funding barriers, as well as strategies for better engaging local veterans service organizations to optimize deployment locations.

HR 10012: Veterans Medicare Premium Transparency Act

The Veterans Medicare Premium Transparency Act requires Medicare to clearly explain how a veteran's enrollment in the Department of Veterans Affairs patient enrollment system affects their monthly insurance premiums. Under this bill, annual notices sent to Medicare beneficiaries will explicitly state that time spent in the VA system counts toward premium calculations and qualifies as valid prescription drug coverage. Additionally, the Secretary of Health and Human Services must post this explanation on the Medicare website and submit a report to Congress within 180 days detailing the updates and estimating how many veterans were previously paying higher premiums due to this lack of clarity.

S 4189: INSULIN Act of 2026

The INSULIN Act of 2026 requires health insurance plans to limit insulin copayments to $35 per 30-day supply starting in 2027, with plans choosing to cap costs at 25% of the negotiated price after 2028. The bill also mandates that pharmacy benefit managers pass all rebates and discounts related to insulin directly to health plans rather than retaining them. Additional provisions include measures to speed up the approval process for generic and biosimilar insulin products, establish a pilot program to provide affordable insulin to uninsured individuals in 10 states, and create a resource center and hotline to help uninsured people access assistance programs.

S 5340: A bill to require a drone posture review.

This bill requires the Secretary of Defense to conduct a comprehensive review of the United States' capabilities and vulnerabilities regarding uncrewed aerial, ground, surface, and undersea vehicles. The review must identify specific gaps in U.S. military drone systems and assess how foreign uncrewed systems pose risks to American forces. By March 1, 2027, the Secretary of Defense is required to submit a report detailing these findings to the congressional defense committees.

SJRES 211: A joint resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.

This joint resolution directs the President to withdraw U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities against Iran that were not authorized by Congress. The bill relies on the War Powers Resolution, asserting that military action in Iran began without a formal declaration of war or specific statutory approval and has exceeded the legal time limits for such engagement. While ordering a removal of troops, the measure allows the United States to continue defending against attacks on its own personnel, conducting intelligence activities, and providing defensive support to partner nations.

SJRES 210: A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating "California State Nonroad Engine Pollution Control Standards; Commercial Harbor Craft Regulations; Notice of Decision".

This joint resolution seeks to block a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency that sets pollution control standards for nonroad engines used in commercial harbor craft. If passed, the measure would prevent the rule from taking effect, meaning the new regulations for these vessels would not be enforced. The bill directly impacts the EPA and the maritime industry by stopping the implementation of the stated pollution limits. It functions as a legislative veto, using existing federal law to disapprove the agency's decision without creating new policies itself.

SJRES 209: A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Nonroad Engine Pollution Control Standards; Ocean-Going Vessels At-Berth; Notice of Decision".

This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency regarding pollution control standards for nonroad engines used in ocean-going vessels while they are at berth. If passed, the measure would legally void the EPA rule, preventing it from taking effect or continuing to apply to the shipping industry. The bill directly impacts the Environmental Protection Agency and maritime operators subject to these emission regulations by removing the federal mandate associated with the California standards.

HJRES 212: Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Standards; Advanced Clean Car Program; Reconsideration of a Previous Withdrawal of a Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision".

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a specific rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency regarding California's Advanced Clean Car Program. If passed, the measure would nullify the EPA's decision to reconsider a previous withdrawal of a waiver that allowed California to set stricter vehicle emission standards than the federal government. The bill directly affects the automotive industry and state regulators by preventing the implementation of these new, state-specific pollution controls. Essentially, it aims to stop the EPA from enforcing a rule that would have expanded California's authority to regulate vehicle emissions.

HJRES 211: Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Standards; Notice of Decision Granting a Waiver of Clean Air Act Preemption for California's 2009 and Subsequent Model Year Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards for New Motor Vehicles".

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a 2009 Environmental Protection Agency rule that allowed California to set its own stricter greenhouse gas emission standards for new motor vehicles. By using a congressional disapproval process, the bill aims to cancel this waiver, which would force California to adopt the same vehicle pollution rules as the rest of the United States. If passed, the measure would directly affect vehicle manufacturers and the state of California by eliminating their ability to enforce unique environmental regulations for cars and trucks. The legislation does not propose new emission limits but instead restores the federal Clean Air Act's preemption over state-level vehicle standards.

SRES 841: A resolution celebrating the 35th anniversary of the independence of Ukraine from the former Soviet Union.

This Senate resolution commemorates the 35th anniversary of Ukraine’s independence from the Soviet Union and recognizes the resilience of the Ukrainian people in pursuing sovereignty and democracy. The text affirms U.S. support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity, specifically rejecting the annexation of Crimea, while condemning Russia’s 2022 military invasion. It encourages the U.S. government to provide strong security guarantees to facilitate a lasting peace agreement and to integrate lessons from Ukraine’s defense innovations into American military readiness. Additionally, the resolution urges Ukraine to continue implementing reforms related to anti-corruption measures, free markets, and the rule of law.
