S3869 — Healthy Families Act
National earned paid sick time. This bill would create a federal framework requiring covered employers to provide paid sick leave that accrues at 1 hour per 30 hours worked and can be used for personal illness, caregiving, preventive care, or needs related to domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. - Families: Parents and caregivers can use paid sick time to care for children or other covered family members, attend medical appointments, or address safety and legal needs related to domestic violence or stalking. - Workers: Employees earn 1 hour per 30 hours worked, can use leave after 60 days of employment, and may use up to 56 hours per year unless an employer offers a higher cap. - Employers and federal staff: Employers that employed one or more employees for 20 or more workweeks must comply and must post notices, keep records, and follow certification and confidentiality rules. The Secretary of Labor can investigate violations and pursue civil remedies, and the bill explicitly covers entities like the Government Accountability Office and the Library of Congress.
S1503 — Equality Act
Treat sexual orientation and gender identity as forms of sex discrimination across federal law. The bill would explicitly add sexual orientation and gender identity to federal sex‑discrimination protections and apply those rules across many statutes and programs.
S2295 — Child Care for Working Families Act
This bill creates a new, comprehensive federal entitlement for children from birth through five that guarantees access to affordable, high‑quality early care and learning. It pairs a universal preschool program with multi‑year grants to stabilize providers and new Head Start wage and expansion funding.
S1507 — Agriculture Resilience Act of 2025
Bold goal: cut greenhouse gas pollution from U.S. agriculture to net zero by 2040 and at least 50% by 2030. The bill directs USDA to write and report on an Action Plan, expand research and extension, beef up conservation and soil health programs, and fund rural energy, manure alternatives, food‑waste reduction, and labeling rules to shrink emissions and boost climate resilience.
S852 — Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize Act of 2025
Strengthens worker organizing rights and enforcement. The bill would expand who counts as employees and joint employers, speed representation and bargaining, require voter lists and workplace postings, and increase penalties and remedies for unfair labor practices. - Workers and jobseekers: Would broaden employee coverage and set a three-factor test that presumes employee status unless all three criteria are met. It would protect use of employer-provided electronic communications for organizing and clarify that the duration or pattern of strikes does not strip protection. - Employers and bargaining: Would require employers to provide unions detailed voter lists and timely notices. It would force a fast initial bargaining process with mandatory mediation and binding arbitration if negotiations fail. - Enforcement and remedies: Would expand National Labor Relations Board authority, allow private civil suits after a waiting period, make Board orders immediately effective, and raise civil penalties for unfair labor practices to up to $50,000 per violation and up to $100,000 for repeat or aggravated offenses.
S2150 — Women’s Health Protection Act of 2025
Guarantee nationwide protections for a person's right to obtain abortion services and a provider's right to deliver them. The Women's Health Protection Act of 2025 would create a federal rule that stops laws and rules that single out abortion or place heavier burdens on abortion than on similar medical procedures. It defines key terms, protects pre-viability care, allows post-viability care to protect life or health, and explicitly protects interstate travel and the movement of medicines, equipment, patients, and providers. - Families and patients: Would protect access to abortion before viability and allow post-viability care when needed to protect life or health. It would bar medically unnecessary in-person visit rules and stop forced disclosure of why a patient seeks care. - Health care providers: Would protect providers' ability to give abortion care including by telemedicine and across state lines, and would forbid facility, staffing, testing, or disclosure requirements that are not required for similar procedures. - States and interstate commerce: Would preempt conflicting state laws and recognize a right to travel and to assist others in getting reproductive health services across state lines. - Courts and enforcement: Would let the Attorney General sue and would create a private right of action so patients and providers can seek injunctive relief and attorney's fees. It would limit state sovereign immunity where federal law allows challenges.
