This bill would let those VA payments be ignored when programs check household income, which could increase housing access for veterans who receive them.

This bill would change how income is counted for some affordable rental homes. VA disability compensation or VA pension payments would not count as income. This would apply to low income housing tax credit homes and to qualified bond-financed rental apartments. If you get those VA payments, it could help you qualify or lower your rent share. It would apply to income checks made after the bill becomes law.

HR3514 — Improving Seniors’ Timely Access to Care Act of 2025
Standardize prior authorization in Medicare Advantage plans to make approvals faster and more transparent for beneficiaries and providers. The bill would require plans that use prior authorization to adopt a secure electronic PA program, publish plan-level PA data, and follow federal timeframes and enrollee protections.
HR2102 — Major Richard Star Act
Establishes concurrent receipt for retirees with combat-related disabilities. This bill would let eligible retirees receive both military retired pay and veterans' disability compensation for the same months without the offset rules that currently reduce payments. - Families of disabled retirees: Veterans with combat-related disabilities would receive both retired pay and VA disability compensation for the same months, increasing their monthly household income. - Defense and VA payment rules: The bill would amend 10 U.S.C. 1413a and 10 U.S.C. 1414 to exempt retired pay from reductions under 38 U.S.C. 5304 and 5305 and add a clear monthly no-offset rule. - Implementation and technical changes: It renames and updates chapter sections, adjusts cross-references, and applies to payments beginning the first month after enactment.
HR1262 — Mikaela Naylon Give Kids a Chance Act
Speeds and strengthens pediatric cancer drug development. It expands which cancer products companies must study in children, reshapes organ transplant network governance and fees, and adds new FDA international and transparency steps. - Children with cancer and researchers: Requires pediatric studies that produce clinically meaningful data on dosing, safety, and early effectiveness and widens the kinds of drug combinations studied. It also sets aside $25 million for pediatric drug studies in each of fiscal years 2026, 2027, and 2028. - Transplant patients and transplant network members: Changes Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network governance and financing by allowing quarterly registration fees, requiring those fees fund OPTN operations, improving electronic health record integration, and calling for a GAO review within two years. - FDA partners and drug makers: Creates an Abraham Accords Office to boost regulatory coordination and technical assistance abroad, and forces more transparency during generic (ANDA) reviews about whether generics are qualitatively and quantitatively the same as listed drugs. It also raises the Medicare Improvement Fund amount from $1.4 billion to $2.6 billion. Increases federal outlays by roughly $1.3 billion, driven by a $1.2 billion boost to the Medicare Improvement Fund and $75 million for pediatric studies, adding to federal spending.
HR842 — Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act
Would expand Medicare to cover multi-cancer early detection screening tests.

HR979 — AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act of 2025
This bill would require AM broadcast capability to be installed as standard equipment in passenger motor vehicles. It focuses on driver-accessible AM reception, allows digital AM audio to count for compliance, and links vehicle AM capability to emergency alerting through IPAWS. - Drivers and households: Built-in, driver-accessible AM reception would make it easier for people to get local AM stations and emergency alerts from their vehicles. The bill allows devices that receive digital AM to meet the requirement. - Vehicle manufacturers: The Department of Transportation would need to issue a rule within 1 year, with a general compliance deadline no later than 2 years after the rule is issued. Small manufacturers that produced no more than 40,000 passenger vehicles in 2022 would get at least 4 years to comply. - Oversight and emergency systems: States would be barred from imposing their own AM-access rules. The bill mandates interim labels and pricing protections for cars without AM, authorizes civil penalties and DOJ injunctions for violations, requires a GAO study and a congressional briefing within 1 year, and includes an 8-year sunset for the authority.
HR452 — Miracle on Ice Congressional Gold Medal Act
This law awards Congressional Gold Medals to the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Team as a formal recognition of their Lake Placid victory and its lasting effect on American morale and the sport of hockey. It directs the Treasury to strike the medals and sets rules for duplicates, display, and funding. - Team legacy and public recognition: The Act honors the 1980 team with a symbolic national award that reinforces their historical and cultural significance for fans, players, and communities connected to the game. - Museum displays and research access: One gold medal goes to the Lake Placid Olympic Center, one to the United States Hockey Hall of Fame Museum in Eveleth, Minnesota, and one to the United States Olympic & Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs for display and research. - Mint operations and collectibles: The Secretary of the Treasury will strike the medals, may sell bronze duplicates at prices that cover costs, and classifies the medals as national and numismatic items. The U.S. Mint Public Enterprise Fund pays for production and receives proceeds from duplicate sales.
