Passed House
Repositions the Office of Survivors Assistance into the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The bill amends 38 U.S.C. §321(a) by replacing the phrase "in the Department" with "in the Office of the Secretary," moving the office out of the Pension and Fiduciary Service within the Veterans Benefits Administration. This change is an organizational realignment focused on the office's placement within VA.

HR3151, SHIPS for America Act of 2025
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. It centralizes maritime strategy in a White House advisor and a Maritime Security Board and funds a broad set of industrial, port, and training programs to favor U.S.-built, U.S.-crewed vessels.
HR8029, Pay Our Homeland Defenders Act
Provides FY2026 funding for the Department of Homeland Security and its components. It lays out agency budgets, procurement limits, program earmarks, and stronger reporting and oversight rules that guide border, disaster, and cybersecurity work.
HR1229, United States-Israel Defense Partnership Act of 2025
Would deepen U.S.-Israel defense cooperation by creating new joint programs, offices, and multi-year funding to develop and deploy counter-unmanned systems and other emerging defense technologies. - U.S. military and Department of Defense: Creates a United States–Israel Counter-Unmanned Systems Program and a program office, authorizes $150 million per year for 2026–2030, and requires annual unclassified reports. - U.S. and Israeli defense industries and tech firms: Authorizes joint research, testing, and procurement across artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics, quantum, and automation with $50 million per year for 2026–2030 and a framework for cost sharing and intellectual property. - Regional partners and missile defense planners: Requires an assessment of integrated air and missile defense in the U.S. Central Command area with an unclassified report in 180 days and extends the War Reserves Stockpile Authority beyond January 1, 2029. Would authorize $150 million per year for counter-unmanned systems and $50 million per year for emerging technology cooperation from 2026–2030, and raises funding caps for anti-tunnel and counter-UAS programs through 2028.
HR833, Educational Choice for Children Act of 2025
Federal tax credits for donations to scholarship organizations would create matching tax incentives for individuals and corporations to fund K–12 scholarships. The bill targets households up to 300% of area median income, sets a $10 billion annual volume cap, and would exclude those scholarship amounts from gross income.
HR2283, Recognizing Community Organizations for Veteran Engagement and Recovery Act
Expands access to culturally competent outpatient mental health care for veterans by creating a three-year VA pilot that awards grants to eligible non-profit community mental health providers. - Veterans gain free outpatient mental health care at participating clinics because grant recipients may not charge fees. The pilot would also encourage veterans to enroll in the VA patient enrollment system. - Nonprofit community providers that have operated an outpatient mental health facility for at least three continuous years could apply. Grants can be up to $1.5 million per facility per year and are limited if more than 50% of a facility's prior-year operating budget came from Federal grants. - The VA would set clinician training standards to ensure culturally competent care, require data collection on clinical outcomes, and balance awards between rural and urban facilities. The agency may prioritize medically underserved areas, large veteran populations, locations near military installations, or sites with many veterans at high risk of suicide and must report program results to Congress within 180 days after the pilot ends. Would authorize $20 million per year for fiscal years 2025–2027, up to $60 million total, increasing federal spending over that period.
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.
