HR6337 — ROAD to Housing Act of 2025

Boost U.S. housing supply by pushing zoning reform, streamlining environmental review, and funding pilots that speed homebuilding and preserve affordable units. The bill pairs technical help and grant money with new rules to make it easier to build, repair, and finance more homes. - Families and renters: Creates a Whole‑Home Repairs pilot that offers forgivable loans and grants for repairs and limits rent increases after repairs to 5% or inflation, whichever is lower, for at least 3 years. It also creates an Escrow Expansion Pilot to help up to 5,000 families save increases tied to earned income and limits enrollment to families at or below 80% of area median income. - Local governments and developers: Requires HUD guidance and model state zoning frameworks to reduce parking minimums, allow duplexes through quadplexes by‑right, speed permitting, and fund an Innovation Fund with $200.0 million per year for FY2027–2031 that awards $250,000–$10.0 million grants to jurisdictions showing measurable housing growth. - Homeowners, manufactured and rural housing: Advances manufactured and modular parity and raises FHA limits for manufactured homes, and modernizes USDA rural housing programs including stronger preservation tools and voucher adjustments for rural projects. No single overall federal budget impact is stated in the sources.

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.

HR1329 — Smithsonian American Women’s History Museum Act

Authorize the Smithsonian American Women's History Museum within the Reserve of the National Mall. It would remove an earlier site-designation limit, set a transfer and notification process for federal land, require exhibits to reflect diverse and authentic women's experiences with defined guidance, and mandate regular reports to Congress. - Smithsonian and the Board of Regents — Would be able to place the museum inside the National Mall Reserve and the bill removes a prior limiting phrase that constrained site designation. - Other federal agencies — Must receive notice before a site under their administrative jurisdiction is designated. The agency head must promptly notify specified House and Senate committees and then transfer administrative jurisdiction as soon as practicable. - Museum visitors and Congress — The Council must ensure exhibits and programs accurately represent varied cultures, histories, events, and values of women and seek guidance from a broad array of knowledgeable and respected sources with definitions for those terms. The Secretary must report to Congress 120 days after enactment and every two years on actions taken and planning.

HR4312 — SCORE Act

Creates a national framework protecting student‑athletes' ability to sell their name, image, and likeness (NIL) and sets a cap on total institutional NIL payments through a revenue‑linked pool limit. It would also cap agent fees at 5% and require institutions and athletic associations to provide health, academic, and career supports while standardizing written contracts and privacy rules. - Student athletes: Student athletes would have the right to sign NIL deals, hire agents, and keep NIL agreement details private. Any deal over $600 must be in writing and includes a termination right beginning six months after the athlete is no longer enrolled. - Institutions and conferences: Institutions subject to the bill would need to provide medical care for participation injuries, mental health services, academic support, and career counseling and must maintain grant‑in‑aid during the grant period. These institutional duties apply when a coach's base salary exceeds $250,000 or annual athletic revenue reaches $20 million, and institutions must field at least 16 varsity teams. - Agents, associations, and third parties: Agents face a 5% fee cap plus new registration and disclosure rules enforceable by state attorneys general. Interstate intercollegiate athletic associations would set and monitor a pool limit equal to 22% of the average annual sports revenue of their top 70 member institutions and would have authority to adopt related competition and recruitment rules.

HR2598 — IDEA Full Funding Act

This bill would create a multi-year schedule that establishes mandatory federal funding for IDEA Part B special education (excluding section 619) and ties grant amounts to student counts and national per-pupil spending. The funding is set by a formula that multiplies the number of children served by the national average per-pupil expenditure in public schools.

HR6955 — Main Street Capital Access Act

Expand formation of new and rural banks by giving de novo institutions phased capital flexibility and clearer supervisory treatment. The bill would also tailor rules for small banks and index statutory thresholds to GDP. - New and rural de novo banks would get a three-year phase-in of federal capital rules and may request business-plan deviations during that window. The bill creates a Rural Community Depository Institution Leverage Ratio capped at 7.5% for the phase-in period and defines rural depositories as those with under $10 billion in assets in nonurban areas. - Small banks and credit unions would face lighter, more predictable examinations and reporting. Insured institutions with $6.0 billion or less in consolidated assets could move to limited-scope exams after a full-scope review. The Community Bank Leverage Ratio qualifying threshold rises to $15.0 billion and the small holding company asset limit rises to $25.0 billion. - Regulators, depositors, and markets would see tighter rules for supervisory transparency and appeals. The bill would require objective CAMELS criteria, create an independent examination review board with a 60-day appeal window, ban supervisory actions based on "reputational risk," and exempt merger competition review for deals that produce firms under $10.0 billion while indexing many thresholds to GDP.
