117-hr-263, Big Cat Public Safety Act
Creates a nationwide ban on the private possession and breeding of big cats and their hybrids to boost public safety and support conservation. The law carves narrow exemptions for licensed exhibitors, accredited sanctuaries, state institutions, and veterinarians, and requires existing owners to register certain animals.
117-hr-8404, Respect for Marriage Act
Nationwide federal recognition of marriages between two individuals. This law repeals the Defense of Marriage Act and creates a federal rule that recognizes valid two-person marriages for federal purposes while preserving religious conscience protections. - Couples and families: Federal agencies must treat a marriage between two people as valid if it was valid where it was entered. The law also bars federal recognition of polygamous marriages. - Religious organizations and providers: The law affirms religious liberty and allows religious organizations and persons to refuse to provide services for the solemnization or celebration of a marriage without creating civil claims. - States, territories, and enforcement: "State" is defined to include the District of Columbia and listed territories like Puerto Rico, and validity is generally based on the law where the marriage was entered. The Attorney General can bring civil actions and individuals harmed by denial of recognition have a private right of action for relief.
117-hr-1842, Harriet Tubman Bicentennial Commemorative Coin Act
Creates 2024 commemorative coins honoring Harriet Tubman. The law directs the Treasury to mint three denominations in 2024: up to 50,000 five-dollar gold coins, 400,000 one-dollar silver coins, and 750,000 half-dollar clad coins. Designs must feature Tubman on at least one obverse and include standard inscriptions. The Mint will sell coins in uncirculated and proof qualities and set prices that cover face value, a surcharge, and production costs. Surcharges of $35, $10, and $5 go equally to the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and The Harriet Tubman Home, Inc. The law requires that issuing these coins not impose any net cost on the U.S. government.
117-hr-55, Emmett Till Antilynching Act
The Emmett Till Antilynching Act strengthens federal hate-crime law by expanding 18 U.S.C. §249 to cover conspiracies tied to lynching and related violent hate offenses and by setting clear penalties for those conspiracies. This change makes conspirators who cause death or serious bodily injury subject to significant federal prison terms and fines.
