Passed House
Conveys a roughly 0.81-acre Forest Service parcel to Perry County, Arkansas, for public use.
This bill would require the Secretary of Agriculture to transfer all United States interest in the Forest Service parcel identified as parcel 850-10555-001 at 1069 Fourche Avenue in Perryville to Perry County if the county requests the conveyance within 180 days. The transfer would be by quitclaim deed at no cost to the federal government, with final acreage set by a survey, subject to valid existing rights and a possible reversion to the United States if the county stops using the land for education or youth development, and the county must pay all survey, environmental, and historic-preservation review costs while the Secretary is not required to provide any covenant or warranty under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act.

If enacted, Perry County would be able to get about 0.81 acres of Forest Service land at 1069 Fourche Avenue in Perryville. The County would need to request the land in writing within 180 days after enactment. Exact acreage would be set by a survey approved by the Secretary. The transfer would be free of a purchase price and by quitclaim deed. The County would pay all costs for any survey, environmental reviews, and National Historic Preservation Act analysis. The land would have to be used only for public purposes, such as education and youth programs. If that use stops, the land would revert to the United States at the Secretary’s discretion. The deed would include no CERCLA cleanup warranty and would be subject to valid existing rights and any other terms the Secretary would set.

HR3633, Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025
Would create a comprehensive federal framework to regulate digital assets, stablecoins, exchanges, and custody across the SEC and CFTC.

HR6955, Main Street Act
Tailors federal banking rules to support community and small banks. It would also speed new bank formation and merger reviews while adding formal appeals, agency transparency, and targeted resolution tools. - Community banks and new charters: Would phase in federal capital requirements for newly insured institutions over three years and let them request business‑plan deviations with expedited agency action. Raises the Community Bank Leverage Ratio asset cutoff to $15 billion and adds a short‑form Call Report option. - Rural banks, credit unions, and small institutions: Defines rural depository institutions under a $10 billion asset cutoff and orders studies on rural revitalization. Creates supervisory relief for well‑managed firms with assets $6 billion or less, including limited‑scope exam cycles and combined exam options. - Mergers, resolution, and oversight: Standardizes merger completeness and decision timelines with a 30‑day completeness check and a 120‑day approval deadline, plus GAO and IG reviews of merger and failure decisions. Establishes an independent Board review for material supervisory determinations and expands transparency about global regulatory engagement.
HR471, Fix Our Forests Act
Speeds hazardous fuels reduction and wildfire resilience by creating designated fireshed areas, a joint Fireshed Center, and new authorities that would streamline planning, data sharing, and on-the-ground restoration across federal, Tribal, state, local, private, and nonprofit lands. - Communities and households: At-risk communities would get coordinated mapping, smoke forecasting, and a unified grant application to make funding for home hardening and local projects easier to access. - Tribal governments and state/local partners: Tribes or Governors could trigger shared‑stewardship agreements within 90 days to join cross‑boundary planning and fireshed assessments that prioritize tribal water supplies and community risk. - Forest managers, utilities, and responders: Agencies would gain faster project authorities including NEPA exemptions for designated firesheds, higher Healthy Forests Restoration Act project thresholds (10,000 acres), a 150‑foot hazard‑tree clearance for power lines, expanded contracting tools, and intra‑agency strike teams to speed environmental reviews and implementation. Note: The sources set many deadlines, reporting rules, pilot programs, and several seven‑year sunsets but do not provide a specific federal cost estimate.
HR8398, Guidelines for Use, Access, and Responsible Disclosure of Financial Data Act
Stronger consumer privacy controls for financial data. This bill would broaden what counts as protected nonpublic personal information and give consumers clearer rights to access, opt out, opt in, and delete that data.
HR687, MERIT Act of 2025
Overhauls how the federal government handles employee discipline and related pay and benefits. This bill would replace Chapter 43 with a new adverse-action framework and add new rules on furloughs, annuity reductions for certain felony convictions, bonus recoupment, and longer probationary periods. - Federal employees would face a new furlough cause with a set appeal timeline. Furloughs could be appealed to the Merit Systems Protection Board within 10 business days, and many probationary periods would extend to two years for new appointees. - Retirees and annuitants could see annuities reduced if finally convicted of a felony tied to official duties. Agencies must give at least 15 business days notice, update records and OPM must recalculate benefits within 30 business days, and MSPB review would be available. - Agencies and OPM would get new rulemaking work and authorities. OPM must issue key furlough rules within 180 days, agencies gain explicit authority to recoup bonuses after adverse findings and must enforce a prohibition on certain bonuses for five years after the fiscal year with an adverse finding, with repayment plans and hearings set by agencies.
