HR 6500Passed Congress

Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2027

This bill provides temporary funding for federal agencies starting October 1, 2026, and lasting through December 11, 2026, or until full spending bills are passed, whichever comes first. Most programs would keep getting the same amount of money they received the year before, but some programs — like WIC (a nutrition program for women, infants, and children), disaster relief, and small business loans — get special funding adjustments. The bill also extends a number of expiring programs related to things like flood insurance, transportation, veterans benefits, housing, and trade agreements with certain countries. Additionally, it blocks certain federal regulations from taking effect, continues a freeze on pay raises for Members of Congress and some senior officials, and provides payments to the families of two Members of Congress who died while serving.

SJRES 82Passed Senate

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act".

This joint resolution seeks to overturn a rule from the Department of Health and Human Services related to how that agency follows the Administrative Procedure Act, which is the law governing how federal agencies create and enforce regulations. Congress has a process that allows it to reject specific federal agency rules, and this resolution would use that process to disapprove of this particular HHS policy. No official summary is available for this bill.

HR 10326Passed House

PROOF Act

This bill requires states to share information with the Department of Justice when asked, so that DOJ can investigate and prosecute fraud in certain government programs. These programs include Medicaid, food assistance (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, and certain coronavirus relief funds, as well as any other state-funded programs that DOJ identifies as being at risk for fraud. The information collected can only be used for fraud-related law enforcement and cannot be shared for other purposes. DOJ must also report to Congress each year on how many information requests it made, which programs were involved, and how many fraud investigations and convictions resulted from the information it received.
