This bill would require the Secretary of State to deliver a U.S.-Mexico security assistance strategy to Congress within 180 days of enactment. The report would go to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee. It would plan how U.S. assistance would dismantle transnational criminal networks that traffic illicit drugs (including fentanyl) and related crimes, strengthen Mexico’s military and public security at the northern and southern borders, and build civilian law enforcement, prosecutors, and courts to fight corruption and impunity. The report would list implementing government entities and nongovernmental groups, set priorities, milestones, and performance measures, and describe bilateral cooperation mechanisms. The report must be unclassified but may include a classified annex. The Secretary would brief the two committees within one year after submission and then annually. The bill would not authorize the use of U.S. military force in Mexico.

S1541 — SHIPS for America Act of 2025
Expand U.S. shipbuilding and maritime capacity for national and economic security. The SHIPS for America Act of 2025 would create a broad statutory framework to grow U.S.-flag fleets, boost domestic shipbuilding and repair, modernize mariner credentials and training, and fund ports, cable repair, and maritime innovation. - Mariners and students would get credential modernization, new scholarships and loan-forgiveness eligibility, and major academy support including about $125.0 million per year for the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy FY2026–FY2035. - U.S. shipyards and builders would gain new financing tools and incentives including a Title XI revolving loan start of $100.0 million and $100.0 million per year for small shipyard assistance FY2026–FY2035. - Commercial shipping, ports, and national security would be reshaped by stronger cargo-preference rules, tariff and tonnage-tax penalties for foreign-of-concern shipyards, and a Strategic Commercial Fleet with targets of at least 10 vessels in year three and 20 vessels per year thereafter. If enacted, it would authorize a Maritime Security Trust Fund capped at $20.0 billion and multiple annual appropriations and program payments through FY2035, increasing federal spending obligations over the next decade.
S836 — Children and Teens’ Online Privacy Protection Act
Expands COPPA protections to include teens. The bill broadens consent rules, creates new teen data rights, and tightens operator duties and oversight for both children and teens online. - Families and teens gain stronger control over teen data. The law requires verifiable consent before collecting or materially changing how data is used and gives teens and parents rights to access, delete, and correct data as part of notice and consent. - Web and app operators face new duties and a common consent system. Operators must follow updated data security and notice rules, coordinate with educational agencies on student data, and help implement a common verifiable consent mechanism with an FTC feasibility review and public comment. - FinTech, enforcement, and state rules are singled out. The bill adds targeted rules for financial-technology contexts, mandates a Government Accountability Office study on teen privacy and mental health in fintech, updates safe-harbor terms to include teens, and preempts conflicting state laws while allowing more protective state measures.
S278 — Kids Off Social Media Act
Restricting children's access to social media accounts and limiting algorithmic targeting. This bill would bar most children under 13 from having social media accounts and would curb automated recommendation systems for users under 17. - Parents and children: Platforms would be prohibited from permitting accounts for children under 13 and must delete existing child accounts. Families could request a readable, portable copy of a terminated child’s personal data within 90 days. - Platforms and enforcement: Social media platforms would be barred from using personalized recommendation systems for users under 17, with a narrow exception that allows only basic attributes such as device type, language, city, and age for display purposes. The Federal Trade Commission would enforce the rules and state attorneys general could bring parens patriae lawsuits, and platforms would be limited in how they collect and retain compliance-related data. - Schools and E-Rate subsidies: Schools receiving discounted broadband under the Schools and Libraries (E-Rate) program would have to block social media on school-provided networks, adopt internet safety policies, and submit those policies to the Federal Communications Commission. Schools must certify compliance within 120 days of the first affected funding year and be fully compliant by the second program year or risk losing discounts and repaying funds.
S3597 — National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act of 2026
Would reauthorize and expand the National Quantum Initiative to grow the U.S. quantum industry, workforce, and secure supply chains. It would broaden federal programs at NIST, NSF, and NASA, add research centers and workforce hubs, tighten research-security rules, and push international standards and supply-chain resilience. - Students, teachers, and workers would get new traineeships, fellowships, K–12 programs, internships, and a Quantum Reskilling, Education, and Workforce Hub that must include at least 4 institutions including 2 community colleges. - Researchers, universities, national labs, and small businesses would be eligible for expanded centers and grants, including up to 10 multidisciplinary NSF centers and competitive NIST Quantum Centers with grants capped at $18.0 million per center per year. - Supply chains and national security would get new attention through a two-year Commerce and Energy study, a three-year resilience plan, formal foreign-risk screening rules, and funding prohibitions for Confucius Institutes and specified foreign entities. Would authorize federal funding including up to $85.0 million per year for NIST (FY2026–FY2030), up to $25.0 million per year for NASA, and center grants capped at $18.0 million per center per year, increasing authorized federal expenditures over that period.
S1241 — Sanctioning Russia Act of 2025
Harsh, automatic sanctions and trade penalties would be triggered if Russia refuses to negotiate with Ukraine, violates a peace deal, invades again, or seeks to subvert Ukraine's government. The bill would require visa and property-blocking sanctions, target major Russian banks, ban U.S. energy exports to Russia, restrict U.S. investments and listings tied to Russia, and force duties of at least 500% on Russian imports.
S847 — Child Care Availability and Affordability Act
Would expand tax support for child care to make employer credits bigger, raise the tax-free dependent care benefit, and create a new credit to help pay for household and dependent care that enables work. - Families and caregivers would get a new household and dependent care credit worth up to 50% of eligible employment-related care costs, phased down by income, with caps of $5,000 for one qualifying individual and $8,000 for two or more. - Employers would be able to claim a larger employer-provided child care credit, moving from 25% to 50% of qualifying spending with a maximum of $500,000, and certain small businesses would see the rate rise to 60% with a $600,000 cap. - Workers using employer benefits would see the dependent care exclusion rise from $5,000 to $7,500 ($3,750 if married filing separately), and the bill adds reporting requirements and limits on payments to related providers.
