Tim’s Act

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.

HR2550 — Protect America's Workforce Act

Preserves federal employees' collective bargaining agreements. This Act nullifies the Executive Order titled "Exclusions from Federal Labor-Management Relations Programs." - Federal employees and unions: Collective bargaining agreements that were in effect on March 26, 2025 remain valid and continue to apply through each contract's stated term. - Federal agencies and federal funds: Agencies may not obligate or spend federal funds to carry out that Executive Order, and the Executive Order has no force or effect.

HR2102 — Major Richard Star Act

Establishes concurrent receipt for retirees with combat-related disabilities. This bill would let eligible retirees receive both military retired pay and veterans' disability compensation for the same months without the offset rules that currently reduce payments. - Families of disabled retirees: Veterans with combat-related disabilities would receive both retired pay and VA disability compensation for the same months, increasing their monthly household income. - Defense and VA payment rules: The bill would amend 10 U.S.C. 1413a and 10 U.S.C. 1414 to exempt retired pay from reductions under 38 U.S.C. 5304 and 5305 and add a clear monthly no-offset rule. - Implementation and technical changes: It renames and updates chapter sections, adjusts cross-references, and applies to payments beginning the first month after enactment.

HR2736 — Public Service Freedom to Negotiate Act of 2025

Would create federal minimum standards guaranteeing public employees the right to organize, join or refrain from joining a union and to bargain collectively. This bill would set a national backstop while allowing States that already meet those standards to keep their laws in force.

HR1065 — Protect Our Letter Carriers Act of 2025

Heightened protections for U.S. Postal Service letter carriers. This bill would fund security upgrades, push federal prosecutors to prioritize assaults on postal employees, and align sentencing for those attacks with rules for assaults on law enforcement. - Postal workers would get new security gear and safer collection points via high-security collection boxes and electronic mailbox keys funded at $1.4 billion per year for FY2026–2030. - The Attorney General would be directed to vigorously prosecute assaults on postal employees and to appoint an Assistant U.S. Attorney in every federal judicial district to coordinate those cases not later than one year after enactment. - The U.S. Sentencing Commission would be required to amend guidelines so assaults or robberies against postal employees are treated like assaults on law enforcement, with guideline changes due by May 1 following the first year after enactment. This bill would authorize $1.4 billion per year for FY2026–2030, totaling $7.0 billion in authorized federal spending.

HR2048 — Metastatic Breast Cancer Access to Care Act

Ends Social Security and Medicare waiting periods for people with metastatic breast cancer. This bill would add “metastatic breast cancer” to the Social Security Act provisions that remove the waiting period for disability insurance benefits and would waive the 24-month Medicare waiting period, allowing affected individuals to access disability benefits and Medicare coverage without those delays.
