Putting Patients First Healthcare Freedom Act

HR624 — RIFLE Act of 2025

Would replace current ATF and Justice Department enforcement of federal firearms licensing with a graduated civil penalties regime and stronger procedural protections for licensees. It would set tougher proof rules for revocation and add formal notice, hearing, and timeline requirements for enforcement actions.

HR2395 — SHORT Act

Reclassifies short‑barreled rifles and shotguns under federal law and limits state oversight. The SHORT Act would change the Internal Revenue Code and Title 18 to treat certain short‑barreled weapons differently, create a federal safe harbor for people who comply with Chapter 44, preempt state taxes and registration rules, and require destruction of some National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record entries. - Owners who follow federal Chapter 44 rules would be regarded as meeting any state or local registration or licensing requirement for short‑barreled rifles and shotguns. - States and localities would be barred from imposing taxes other than general sales or use taxes, or from requiring markings, recordkeeping, or registration for short‑barreled rifles and shotguns that affect interstate commerce. - The Attorney General would have to destroy within 365 days certain NFRTR registrations and transfer and maker applications that identify owners or makers of those weapons.

HR21 — Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act

Mandates care and penalties for infants born alive after an abortion. This bill would set standards of care, require reporting, create criminal penalties, and allow civil suits when an infant is born alive following an abortion. - Women and families: A woman on whom an abortion is performed may sue anyone who violates the law and recover objectively verifiable medical and psychological damages, punitive damages, and statutory damages equal to three times the cost of the abortion. Courts must award reasonable attorney's fees to prevailing plaintiffs and may award fees to defendants if a suit is frivolous. - Health care practitioners and facility employees: Any practitioner present at a birth resulting from an abortion must exercise the same professional skill, care, and diligence as for any other live-born infant of the same gestational age. Practitioners or employees who know of a failure to comply must immediately report the violation to appropriate State or Federal law enforcement. - Criminal and statutory consequences: Violators face fines, up to 5 years in prison, or both, and anyone who intentionally kills a born-alive infant is punished under the murder statute. The bill also updates chapter headings and adds statutory definitions for "abortion" and "attempt."

HR317 — Healthcare Freedom Act of 2025

Health Freedom Accounts (HFAs) would replace Health Savings Accounts across the tax code and reshape tax-advantaged health saving by expanding who can deduct contributions and what counts as medical expenses. - Families and individuals: Would raise the individual contribution limit to $12,000 and double that for joint filers, letting more money be saved tax-advantaged for health. - Older savers: Would add a $5,000 catch-up for people 55 or older, encouraging larger pre-tax health savings as they age. - Account rules and expenses: Would allow rollovers into another HFA if redeposited within 60 days and remove the monthly "eligible individual" requirement so more people can deduct contributions. Would expand qualified expenses to include direct primary care and health care sharing ministries. - Employers and workers: Would create a phased tax exclusion so employer contributions to HFAs are excluded from employee income for workers hired five years after enactment.

HR22 — SAVE Act

Requires documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in Federal elections. The bill would add verification, recordkeeping, and new penalties while creating a sworn-affidavit and official‑verification path for people who cannot present documents. - Voters without documents: People who lack documentary proof would rely on a standardized sworn affidavit or an official verification process the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) must develop. Provisional ballots could still be cast and counted if citizenship is later verified. - State agencies and DMVs: Motor vehicle agencies and other voter registration points would be required to collect and record citizenship documents and to notify applicants in advance. The Federal mail registration form would be revised and the EAC must issue guidance within 10 days of enactment. - Removal and enforcement: States could use Department of Homeland Security Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (DHS SAVE), the Social Security Administration (SSA) verification service, and state ID data to identify and remove noncitizens. The bill expands private suits and increases criminal penalties for knowingly registering or assisting noncitizens.

HR4448 — Restoring Equal Opportunity Act

Prohibits disparate-impact liability under major federal civil rights laws in employment and housing. It would also nullify specific EEOC and Justice Department regulations and the Presidential approvals that adopted them. - Workers and protected groups: Individuals could not bring claims under Title VII that challenge neutral workplace policies because they produce disproportionate effects on certain groups. - Tenants and housing applicants: People could not bring disparate-impact claims under the Fair Housing Act against neutral housing practices that disproportionately affect protected classes. - Employers and housing providers: Would reduce legal exposure for neutral hiring, promotion, or housing policies that have unequal outcomes across groups. - Federal rules and enforcement: Would void identified 1966 EEOC and 1973 DOJ regulations and the Presidential approvals tied to section 602 of the Civil Rights Act, removing those rules from effect.
