SRES 565: A resolution honoring and celebrating the life and legacy of Representative Don Young.

SRES 565 is a ceremonial Senate resolution honoring the late Representative Don Young (R-AK), who served 49 years in the U.S. House of Representatives - the longest tenure of any Alaska representative and the 45th Dean of the House. The resolution commemorates his life, service, and legacy, including his work on landmark legislation like the Trans-Alaska Pipeline authorization and the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. It contains no policy changes or new laws; instead, it directs the Senate to mourn his passing, honor his bipartisan service, and transmit a copy to his family. This is a purely symbolic resolution with no direct impact on constituents or legislation.

The Department of Health and Human Services may issue a waiver for an agency or program that is unable to meet this requirement, but no waiver may apply to drugs purchased in or after 2026. Each drug must have labeling listing the country of origin of each active ingredient, and a drug without this labeling shall be deemed misbranded.

HR 7222: To prohibit the importation of uranium from the Russian Federation.

HR 7222 prohibits U.S. importers from bringing Russian uranium into the country, targeting specific uranium-related categories under U.S. tariff codes. This directly affects U.S. companies, utilities, and manufacturers that currently import or plan to import Russian uranium for energy or industrial use. The bill bans these imports starting 45 days after the law is enacted, overriding existing import rules. It creates a clear legal barrier to Russian uranium entering the U.S. market without additional government approvals.
