If enacted, the bill would change the Chafee program to help people who experienced foster care at age 14 or older build and keep long-term supportive relationships with adults, mentors, and peers. It would also direct agencies to help those youth take part in their permanency plan and get written information about available services. The new purposes would take effect one year after enactment. If enacted, the bill would also require HHS to issue guidance within one year, after consulting youth with lived foster-care experience. That guidance would list examples of federally fundable services, best practices for peer support and mentoring, outreach and notification standards, and documentation protocols for case plans.

Rebuild U.S. commercial shipbuilding and a U.S.-flag strategic fleet by pairing new tax credits, grants, and operating payments with stronger cargo-preference rules and workforce and innovation programs to restore domestic capacity and sealift readiness.

HR2725 — Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act of 2025
Rewrites and expands the Low‑Income Housing Tax Credit to boost construction and affordability for very low‑income renters. It would rename the program the Affordable Housing Credit and change how states get credits, who counts as low‑income, and how projects qualify and claim credits. - Families and residents: Would change tenant rules so most full‑time students under age 24 do not count as low‑income occupants, allow tenant‑based voucher payments to be excluded from rent calculations in certain projects, and add protections for survivors of domestic violence and for veterans. - Developers and owners: Would raise state allocations and set the minimum allocation at $4,876,000 in 2025, create a bigger credit when at least 20% of units serve extremely low‑income households, treat relocation costs as eligible rehab expenses, and tighten acquisition‑basis and foreclosure timing rules. - States, tribes, and rural areas: Would require housing agencies to apply community revitalization and cost‑reasonableness criteria, add Indian areas and rural areas to difficult development area rules with specific NAHASDA exceptions, and bar prioritizing local official approval or contributions in allocation plans.
HR4669 — FEMA Act of 2025
FEMA becomes an independent, cabinet-level agency with a clarified all-hazards mission and consolidated federal leadership for preparedness, response, recovery, mitigation, and interoperable communications.

A multi-title bill that centers on expanding affordable housing through major federal funding while strengthening tenant protections and tightening mortgage and bank rules. It boosts construction and preservation programs and forces stronger loss-mitigation and resale rules in the mortgage market. - Families and first-time homebuyers get direct help through a new Down Payment Assistance Fund offering grants up to 3.5% of value and targeted appraisal-gap and negative-equity grants with $5.0 billion authorized for FY2025. These programs target buyers up to 120% of area median income and higher in some high-cost areas. - Renters and tenants gain more legal protections and eviction safeguards as Local Housing Innovation Grants fund access to counsel, just-cause eviction rules, eviction-mitigation measures, and other tenant protections.

Enterprises must publish loss-mitigation formulas and FHFA will regulate bulk and non-performing loan sales. - Banks and nonbank mortgage originators face a reworked Community Reinvestment Act with broader evaluation, new data-collection and public reporting requirements, climate-related adjustments, and possible penalties for sustained poor ratings.
