committee established, maintained, or controlled by a candidate
or an individual holding Federal office (other than a political
committee of a political party) shall directly or indirectly
compensate an immediate family member of the candidate or
individual (as the case may be) for services provided to or on
behalf of the committee.
``(2) Disclosure of payments to immediate family members.--
In addition to any other information included in a report
submitted under section 304 by a committee described in

Campaign Act of 1971 (52 U.S.C. 30109(d)(1)) is amended by adding at
the end the following new subparagraph:
``(E) Any person who knowingly and willfully commits a violation of
section 313(d) shall be fined not more than the greater of 200 percent
of the amount of the compensation paid in violation of such section or
$100,000 for each violation of such section, imprisoned for not more
than 2 years, or both.''.
(c) Conforming Amendment.--Section 313(a)(1) of such Act (52 U.S.C.

involved knew of the violation, any penalty imposed under this section
shall be imposed on the candidate or individual and not on the
committee.''.
(b) Prohibiting Reimbursement by Committee.--Section 313(d) of such
Act (52 U.S.C. 30114(d)), as added by section 2(a), is amended--
(1) by redesignating paragraph (3) as paragraph (4); and
(2) by inserting after paragraph (2) the following new
paragraph:
``(3) Prohibiting reimbursement by committee of penalty
paid by candidate for violations.--A committee described in
paragraph (1) may not make any payment to reimburse the
candidate or individual involved for any penalty imposed for a
violation of this subsection which is required to be paid by
the candidate or individual under section 309(e).''.

Mr. Bucshon (for himself and Mr. Krishnamoorthi) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To preserve expiring employment-based visas, and make them available
for issuance during fiscal year 2024.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Eliminating Backlogs Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. PRESERVATION OF EXPIRING EMPLOYMENT-BASED VISAS.
(a) In General.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for
fiscal year 2024, the worldwide level of employment-based immigrants
authorized under section 201(d) of the Immigration and Nationality Act
(8 U.S.C. 1151(d)) shall be increased by the number computed under
subsection (b) with respect to such worldwide levels.
(b) Computation.--The number computed under this subsection is the
difference (if any) between--
(1) the number of visas that were originally made available
to family sponsored immigrants under section 201(c)(1) of the
Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1151(c)(1)) for
fiscal years 1992 through 2021, reduced by any unused visas
made available to such immigrants in such fiscal years under
section 201(c)(3) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 1151(c)(3)); and
(2) the sum of the number of aliens who were issued
employment-based immigrant visas or who otherwise acquired the
status of aliens lawfully admitted to the United States for
permanent residence under section 203(b) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1153(b)) during the fiscal years
referred to in paragraph (1).
(c) Allocation.--The Secretary of State, in consultation with the
Secretary of Homeland Security, shall allocate the visas made available
as a result of the increase authorized under subsection (a) on a
proportional basis, in accordance with subsections (b) and (e)(1) of
section 203 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1153), and
with subsection (e) of this section.
(d) Availability.--Each visa made available under this section
shall remain available for use in fiscal year 2024 or in any subsequent
fiscal year, until the Secretary of State, in consultation with the
Secretary of Homeland Security, determines that such visa has been
issued and used as the basis for an application for admission into the
United States.
(e) Inapplicability of Per-Country Limitation.--Each visa made
available under this section shall be awarded in the order in which
employment-based visa applications were filed and shall not be subject
to the numerical limitations under section 202 of the Immigration and
Nationality Act to particular foreign states.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Emerging Business Encouragement Act

SEC. 2. EMERGING BUSINESS ENTERPRISES.
(a) Designation.--Section 3 of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C.
632) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``(gg) Emerging Business Enterprise.--
``(1) In general.--In this Act, the term `emerging business
enterprise' means a concern designated by the Administrator in
accordance with this section.
``(2) Criteria for designation.--Not later than 90 days
after the date of enactment of this subsection, the
Administrator shall establish criteria for designation of a
small business concern as an emerging business enterprise which
shall include the following:
``(A) Number of employees.--That the highest number
of employees of the concern during the year preceding
the date of application is less than the larger of--
``(i) 10 percent of the number of employees
that a small business concern within that
industry category may employ, if that small
business concern is so classified by reason of
a size standard under subsection (a) pertaining
to the number of employees of the concern; or
``(ii) 25 employees.
``(B) Age of business.--That the small business
concern has been in operation for less than 5 years on
the date of application.
``(C) Salary requirements.--That the small business
concern does not, in the Administrator's determination,
pay to an individual who owns any part of the concern
or who is in a management position a salary greater
than 200 percent of the mean annual salary for an
individual in the Managers of Companies and Enterprises
sector (as assigned a North American Industry
Classification System code beginning with 55) or the
equivalent from the most recent employment and wage
estimates developed by the Secretary of Labor.
``(3) Deadline.--The Administrator shall complete review of
an application for designation as an emerging business
enterprise and either issue or deny such designation not later
than one year of receipt of such application.
``(4) Termination of designation.--A designation as an
emerging business enterprise shall terminate on the date on
which the concern is no longer in compliance with the criteria
under paragraph (2), except that--
``(A) with respect to the requirement in paragraph
(2)(A), such designation shall terminate only if the
concern employs 50 percent or more employees than the
number of employees that a small business concern
within that industry category may employ; and
``(B) with respect to the requirement in paragraph
(2)(C), such designation shall terminate only if the
concern exceeds such requirement and employs not more
than 10 percent of the number of employees that a small
business concern within that industry category may
employ, if that small business concern is so classified
by reason of a size standard under subsection (a)
pertaining to the number of employees of the concern.
``(5) Public notification.--The Administrator shall take
appropriate action to publicize the establishment of the
procedures for designations under this paragraph, including by
conducting outreach to eligible small business concerns.
``(6) Contractor training.--The Administrator shall provide
training on Federal procurement specifically for emerging
business enterprises on an Internet website of the
Administrator, which shall be available to the public at no
charge.''.
(b) Contracting Preference.--Section 15(g)(2) of the Small Business
Act (15 U.S.C. 644(g)(2)) is amended by adding at the end the
following:
``(G) Emerging business enterprises.--
``(i) In general.--The head of each Federal

Administrator, establish goals for
participation by emerging business enterprises
in not less than 3 percent of all prime
contracts and subcontracts of such agency for
each fiscal year.
``(ii) Requirements.--The head of a Federal
agency--
``(I) shall make consistent efforts
to annually expand participation by
emerging business enterprises from each
industry category in contracts of the
agency; and
``(II) shall, subject to clause
(iii), award a contract to an emerging
business enterprise if the head of a
Federal agency determines the agency
will not meet the goals established
under this subparagraph for a fiscal
year.
``(iii) Preference.--The preference
described in clause (ii)(II) shall take
priority over any preference for procurement
from the procurement list established pursuant
to section 8503 of title 41, United States
Code, or the Federal Prison Industries catalog
described under section 4124(d) of title 18,
United States Code.
``(iv) Reports.--
``(I) Reports from agencies.--At
the conclusion of each fiscal year, the
head of each Federal agency shall
report to the Administrator on the
extent of participation by emerging
business enterprises in procurement
contracts of such agency. Such reports
shall contain appropriate
justifications for failure to meet the
goals established under this
subparagraph.
``(II) Reports to congress.--The
Administrator shall annually compile
and analyze the reports submitted by
agencies pursuant to subclause (I) and
shall submit to the President and the
Committee on Small Business and
Entrepreneurship of the Senate and the
Committee on Small Business of the
House of Representatives the
compilation and analysis, which shall
include the following:
``(aa) The goals in effect
for each agency and the
agency's performance in
attaining such goals.
``(bb) An analysis of any
failure to achieve individual
agency goals and the actions
planned by such agency (that

goals in the succeeding fiscal
year.
``(cc) The total number and

and subcontracts awarded to
emerging business enterprises
for each agency.
``(III) Annual presidential report
on the state of small business.--The

required by subclause (II) in each
annual report to the Congress on the
state of small business prepared
pursuant to section 303(a) of the Small
Business Economic Policy Act of 1980
(15 U.S.C. 631b(a)).''.
(c) Fee Waivers.--Section 7(a) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C.
636(a)) is amended by adding at the end the following:
``(38) Fee waivers.--The Administrator may not collect an
origination fee or a guarantee fee described in paragraph (18)
in connection with a loan made under this subsection to an
emerging business enterprise, unless--
``(A) the President's budget for the upcoming
fiscal year, submitted to Congress pursuant to section
1105(a) of title 31, United States Code, includes a
cost for the program established under this paragraph
that is above zero; and
``(B) the Administrator determines carrying out
this paragraph will have no adverse effect on the
waivers provided under paragraph (31)(G) or (33)(E)(ii)
for a fiscal year.
``(39) Emerging business enterprises.--
``(A) Reports.--On the date that is 1 year after
the end of the first fiscal year for which a guaranteed
loan is made to an emerging business enterprise under
this subsection, and annually thereafter, each lender
making such a loan shall submit to the Administrator a
report with respect to the preceding fiscal year on the
total number and dollar amount of such loans made and
the number of waivers issued under paragraph (38).
``(B) Verification.--A lender shall verify with the
Administrator the status of a concern as an emerging
business enterprise before making a loan guaranteed
under this subsection to such emerging business
enterprise.
``(C) Penalty.--If a concern received a loan under
this subsection and fraudulently misrepresented the
status of the concern as an emerging business
enterprise, that concern shall--
``(i) repay the amount of the loan to the
lender (from which amount the lender shall
repay the amount of any guarantee paid on the
loan to the Administrator); and
``(ii) pay a fine to the Administrator in
an amount determined by the Administrator.''.
SEC. 3. RULEMAKING.
(a) In General.--Not later 1 year after the date of enactment of
this subsection and for each industry category for which the
Administrator of the Small Business Administration established a size
standard under section 3(a) of the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C.
632(a)), the Administrator shall issue a rule--

1st Session
H. R. 154
To ensure election integrity and security by establishing consistent
photo identification requirements for voting in elections for Federal
office, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 9, 2023
Mr. Fitzpatrick introduced the following bill; which was referred to
the Committee on House Administration
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To ensure election integrity and security by establishing consistent
photo identification requirements for voting in elections for Federal
office, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Securing our Elections Act of
2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Free, fair, and secure elections are necessary to the
prosperity of democracy in the United States and around the
world.
(2) The right to vote is a crucial aspect of American
citizenship and must be protected from any potential
interference, abuse, and fraud.
(3) The passage of the Help America Vote Act of 2002
improved and standardized State and local governments'
administration of Federal elections, but lacked strong
provisions to validate a voter's identity prior to their
voting.
(4) In 2005, the bipartisan Commission on Federal Election
Reform co-chaired by former Democratic President Jimmy Carter
and former Republican Secretary of State James A. Baker III
released a report which explicitly recommended that States
require voters to use a valid identification that includes
their full legal name, date of birth, a signature, and a photo.
(5) A public survey conducted by the reputable, nonpartisan
Monmouth University Polling Institute in June 2021 indicated
that an overwhelming 80 percent of Americans support requiring
voters to show a photo identification in order to vote.
(6) Valid identification is required by the States and the
Federal Government for a multitude of serious purposes in
public life such as driving or renting a car, boarding an
airplane or train, traveling within and outside of the United
States, purchasing alcohol or controlled substances, picking up
prescription medication, opening a bank account or cashing a
check, applying for employment or housing opportunities, and
much more.
(7) As determined by the Congressional Research Service,
161 nations worldwide--approximately 83 percent--require their
citizens to present a form of identification in order to vote,
including 38 of the top 50 most democratic nations identified
by the Democracy Index 2021.
(8) More than two-thirds of the States already request or
require citizens to show a form of identification in order to
vote, 22 of which request or require a photo identification for
the purposes of voting.
SEC. 3. REQUIRING VOTERS TO PROVIDE PHOTO IDENTIFICATION.
(a) Requirement To Provide Photo Identification as Condition of
Casting Ballot.--
(1) In general.--Title III of the Help America Vote Act of
2002 (52 U.S.C. 21081 et seq.) is amended by inserting after
section 303 the following new section:
``SEC. 303A. PHOTO IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS.
``(a) Provision of Identification Required as Condition of Casting
Ballot.--
``(1) Individuals voting in person.--
``(A) Requirement to provide identification.--
Notwithstanding any other provision of law and except
as provided in subparagraph (B), the appropriate State
or local election official may not provide a ballot for
an election for Federal office to an individual who
desires to vote in person unless the individual
presents to the official a valid photo identification.
``(B) Availability of provisional ballot.--
``(i) In general.--If an individual does
not present the identification required under
subparagraph (A), the individual shall be
permitted to cast a provisional ballot with
respect to the election under section 302(a),
except that the appropriate State or local
election official may not make a determination
under section 302(a)(4) that the individual is
eligible under State law to vote in the
election unless, not later than 3 days after
casting the provisional ballot, the individual
presents to the official--
``(I) the identification required
under subparagraph (A); or
``(II) an affidavit developed and
made available to the individual by the
State attesting that the individual
does not possess the identification
required under subparagraph (A) because
the individual has a religious
objection to being photographed.
``(ii) No effect on other provisional
balloting rules.--Nothing in clause (i) may be
construed to apply to the casting of a
provisional ballot pursuant to section 302(a)
or any State law for reasons other than the
failure to present the identification required
under subparagraph (A).
``(2) Individuals voting other than in person.--
``(A) In general.--Notwithstanding any other
provision of law and except as provided in subparagraph
(B), the appropriate State or local election official
may not accept any ballot for an election for Federal
office provided by an individual who votes other than
in person unless the individual submits with the
ballot--
``(i) a copy of a valid photo
identification; or
``(ii) the last four digits of the
individual's Social Security number and an
affidavit developed and made available to the
individual by the State attesting that the
individual is unable to obtain a copy of a
valid photo identification after making
reasonable efforts to obtain such a copy.
``(B) Exception for overseas military voters.--
Subparagraph (A) does not apply with respect to a
ballot provided by an absent uniformed services voter
who, by reason of active duty or service, is absent
from the United States on the date of the election
involved. In this subparagraph, the term `absent
uniformed services voter' has the meaning given such
term in section 107(1) of the Uniformed and Overseas
Citizens Absentee Voting Act (52 U.S.C. 20310(1)),
other than an individual described in section 107(1)(C)
of such Act.
``(b) Providing Certain Assistance to Individuals Unable To Pay
Costs of Obtaining Identification or Otherwise Unable To Obtain
Identification.--
``(1) Provision of identification without charge to certain
individuals.--If an individual presents a State official at the
appropriate State agency or department designated by the State
with an affidavit developed and made available to the
individual by the State attesting that the individual is unable
to pay the costs associated with obtaining a valid photo
identification under this section, or attesting that the
individual is otherwise unable to obtain a valid photo
identification under this section after making reasonable
efforts to obtain such an identification, the official shall
provide the individual with a valid photo identification under
this subsection without charge to the individual.
``(2) Public access to digital imaging devices.--With
respect to each State, the appropriate State or local
government official of the State shall ensure, to the extent
practicable, public access to a digital imaging device, which
shall include a printer, copier, image scanner, or
multifunction machine, at State and local government buildings
in the State, including courts, libraries, and police stations,
for the purpose of allowing individuals to use such a device at
no cost to the individual to make a copy of a valid photo
identification.
``(c) Valid Photo Identifications Described.--For purposes of this
section, a `valid photo identification' means, with respect to an
individual who seeks to vote in a State, any of the following:
``(1) A valid State-issued motor vehicle driver's license
that includes a photo of the individual and an expiration date.
``(2) A valid State-issued identification card that
includes a photo of the individual and an expiration date.
``(3) A valid United States passport for the individual.
``(4) A valid military identification for the individual.
``(5) Any other form of government-issued identification
that the State may specify as a valid photo identification for
purposes of this subsection.
``(d) Notification of Identification Requirement to Applicants for
Voter Registration.--
``(1) In general.--Each State shall ensure that, at the
time an individual applies to register to vote in elections for
Federal office in the State, the appropriate State or local
election official notifies the individual of the photo
identification requirements of this section.
``(2) Special rule for individuals applying to register to
vote online.--Each State shall ensure that, in the case of an
individual who applies to register to vote in elections for
Federal office in the State online, the online voter
registration system notifies the individual of the photo
identification requirements of this section before the
individual completes the online registration process.
``(e) Treatment of States With Certain Photo Identification
Requirements in Effect as of Date of Enactment.--If, as of the date of
the enactment of this section, a State has in effect a law that
satisfies or exceeds the requirements of this section for an individual
to provide a photo identification as a condition of casting a ballot in
elections for Federal office held in the State and the law remains in
effect on and after the effective date of this section, the State shall
be considered to meet the requirements of this section if--
``(1) the State submits a request to the Attorney General
and provides such information as the Attorney General may
consider necessary to determine that the State has in effect
such a law and that the law remains in effect; and
``(2) the Attorney General--
``(A) approves the request; or
``(B) fails to issue a determination with respect
to the request during the 180-day period that begins on
the date the State submits such request.
``(f) Effective Date.--This section shall apply with respect to
elections for Federal office held in 2024 or any succeeding year.''.
(2) Clerical amendment.--The table of contents of such Act
is amended by inserting after the item relating to section 303
the following new item:
``Sec. 303A. Photo identification requirements.''.
(b) Conforming Amendment Relating to Voluntary Guidance by Election
Assistance Commission.--Section 311(b) of such Act (52 U.S.C. 21101(b))
is amended--
(1) by striking ``and'' at the end of paragraph (2);
(2) by striking the period at the end of paragraph (3) and
inserting ``; and''; and
(3) by adding at the end the following new paragraph:
``(4) in the case of the recommendations with respect to

1st Session
H. R. 1540
To establish a means-tested assistance program for national flood
insurance program policyholders, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mr. Cartwright introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Financial Services
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To establish a means-tested assistance program for national flood
insurance program policyholders, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``National Flood Insurance Program
Affordability Act''.
SEC. 2. MEANS-TESTED ASSISTANCE FOR NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM
POLICYHOLDERS.
(a) In General.--The Administrator of the Federal Emergency
Management Agency shall, not later than 1 year after the date of the
enactment of this Act, establish a means-tested program under which the
Administrator provides assistance to eligible policyholders in the form
of graduated discounts for insurance costs with respect to covered
properties.
(b) Discounts.--The Administrator shall use amounts provided under
this section to establish graduated discounts available to eligible
policyholders under this section, with respect to covered properties,
such that the chargeable premium rate for an eligible policyholder that
applies for assistance under this section may not exceed 1 percent of
the area median income for the area in which the property to which the
policy applies is located.
(c) Application.--To receive assistance under this Act, an eligible
policyholder shall submit an application to the Administrator at such
time, in such manner, and containing such information as the
Administrator may reasonably require and assistance will no longer be
available when the amounts appropriated pursuant to subsection (f) have
been expended for a fiscal year.
(d) Rulemaking and Guidance.--Not later than 1 year after the date
of the enactment of this Act, the Administrator shall issue such
regulations and guidance as the Administrator determines necessary to
carry out this Act, including a hardship metric for small businesses
and not-for-profit entities to qualify for assistance under this Act.
(e) Report.--Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment
of this section, the Administrator shall submit to the Congress, a
report that--
(1) addresses the feasibility of making eligibility for
assistance under the program established under this Act based
on a consideration of an eligible policyholder's principal,
interest, taxes, and insurance instead of household income as a
percent of area medium income; and
(2) outlines how the Administrator could use income
eligibility for other Federal programs to determine eligibility
for participation in the program established under this Act.
(f) Appropriation.--
(1) In general.--There is appropriated, annually, to the
Administrator, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise
appropriated, $250,000,000, to carry out the program
established by the Administrator under subsection (a).
(2) Expenditure requirement.--The Administrator shall, each
fiscal year, expend not less than 95 percent of the amount
appropriated for such fiscal year under paragraph (1).
SEC. 3. MONTHLY INSTALLMENT PAYMENT FOR PREMIUMS.
Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this Act,
the Administrator shall--
(1) implement the requirement for monthly installment
payments of premiums provided under section 1308(g) of the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 4015(g)); or
(2) submit to Congress an explanation of the reasons why
the Administrator cannot implement the requirement described in
paragraph (1) during that 180-day period.

``(i) Offense Regarding Unlawful Possession of Pill Press Molds.--
``(1) In general.--Whoever, with intent to manufacture in
violation of this title a counterfeit substance in schedule I
or II in a capsule, tablet, or other form for distribution,
knowingly possesses a pill press mold, shall be imprisoned not
more than 20 years and fined in accordance with title 18,

``(2) Definitions.--In this subsection, the term `pill

H. R. 1553
To require the Securities and Exchange Commission to revise rules
relating to general solicitation or general advertising to allow for
presentations or other communication made by or on behalf of an issuer
at certain events, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mr. Lawler (for himself and Mr. Gottheimer) introduced the following
bill; which was referred to the Committee on Financial Services
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require the Securities and Exchange Commission to revise rules
relating to general solicitation or general advertising to allow for
presentations or other communication made by or on behalf of an issuer
at certain events, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Helping Angels Lead Our Startups Act
of 2023'' or the ``HALOS Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. CLARIFICATION OF GENERAL SOLICITATION.
(a) Definitions.--For purposes of this Act and the revision of
rules required under this Act:
(1) Angel investor group.--The term ``angel investor
group'' means any group that--
(A) is composed of accredited investors interested
in investing personal capital in early-stage companies;
(B) holds regular meetings and has defined
processes and procedures for making investment
decisions, either individually or among the membership
of the group as a whole; and
(C) is neither associated nor affiliated with
brokers, dealers, or investment advisers.
(2) Issuer.--The term ``issuer'' means an issuer that is a
business, is not in bankruptcy or receivership, is not an
investment company, and is not a blank check, blind pool, or
shell company.
(b) In General.--Not later than 6 months after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission shall
revise Regulation D of its rules (17 CFR 230.500 et seq.) to require
that in carrying out the prohibition against general solicitation or
general advertising contained in section 230.502(c) of title 17, Code
of Federal Regulations, the prohibition shall not apply to a
presentation or other communication made by or on behalf of an issuer
which is made at an event--
(1) sponsored by--
(A) the United States or any territory thereof, the
District of Columbia, any State, a political
subdivision of any State or territory, or any agency or
public instrumentality of any of the foregoing;
(B) a college, university, or other institution of
higher education;
(C) a nonprofit organization;
(D) an angel investor group;
(E) a venture forum, venture capital association,
or trade association; or
(F) any other group, person, or entity as the
Securities and Exchange Commission may determine by
rule;
(2) where any advertising for the event does not reference
any specific offering of securities by the issuer;
(3) the sponsor of which--
(A) does not make investment recommendations or
provide investment advice to event attendees;
(B) does not engage in an active role in any
investment negotiations between the issuer and
investors attending the event;
(C) does not charge event attendees any fees other
than reasonable administrative fees;
(D) does not receive any compensation for making
introductions between investors attending the event and
issuers, or for investment negotiations between such
parties;
(E) makes readily available to attendees a
disclosure not longer than one page in length, as
prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
describing the nature of the event and the risks of
investing in the issuers presenting at the event; and
(F) does not receive any compensation with respect
to such event that would require registration of the
sponsor as a broker or a dealer under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, or as an investment advisor under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940; and
(4) where no specific information regarding an offering of
securities by the issuer is communicated or distributed by or
on behalf of the issuer, other than--
(A) that the issuer is in the process of offering
securities or planning to offer securities;
(B) the type and amount of securities being
offered;
(C) the amount of securities being offered that
have already been subscribed for; and
(D) the intended use of proceeds of the offering.
(c) Rule of Construction.--Subsection (b) may only be construed as
requiring the Securities and Exchange Commission to amend the
requirements of Regulation D with respect to presentations and
communications, and not with respect to purchases or sales.
(d) No Pre-Existing Substantive Relationship by Reason of Event.--
Attendance at an event described under subsection (b) shall not
qualify, by itself, as establishing a pre-existing substantive
relationship between an issuer and a purchaser, for purposes of Rule
506(b).
SEC. 3. RESTRICTIONS ON NEW FILING REQUIREMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH A
GENERAL SOLICITATION.
With respect to any offer or sale of a security under Regulation D
(17 CFR 230.500 et seq.) that is exempt from the prohibition against
general solicitation or general advertising contained in section
230.502(c) of title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, the Securities and
Exchange Commission may not issue any rule that would apply additional
filing requirements (including requirements to file information with
the Commission before or after a general solicitation or general
advertising) to a general solicitation or general advertising of such a
security that were not in effect on the date of enactment of this Act.

1st Session
H. R. 1554
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide the work
opportunity tax credit with respect to the hiring of veterans in the
field of renewable energy.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Ms. Lee of California (for herself, Ms. Clarke of New York, Mr.
Espaillat, Mr. Thompson of Mississippi, Ms. Crockett, and Ms. Norton)
introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on
Ways and Means
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide the work
opportunity tax credit with respect to the hiring of veterans in the
field of renewable energy.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Incentives for our Nation's Veterans
in Energy Sustainability Technologies Act'' or as the ``INVEST Act''.
SEC. 2. WORK OPPORTUNITY TAX CREDIT FOR VETERANS HIRED IN THE FIELD OF
RENEWABLE ENERGY.
(a) In General.--Section 51(d)(14) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 is amended to read as follows:
``(14) Certain veterans hired in the field of renewable
energy.--
``(A) In general.--For purposes of this subpart, an
individual shall be treated as a member of a targeted
group if such individual is a specified veteran, but
qualified wages with respect to such individual shall
include only wages attributable to services rendered in
a field of renewable energy.
``(B) Specified veteran.--For purposes of this
paragraph, the term `specified veteran' means any
veteran (as defined in paragraph (3)) who is certified
by the designated local agency as--
``(i) having received a credential or
certification from the Department of Defense of
military occupational specialty or skill in a
field of renewable energy or with respect to
advanced manufacturing, machinist or welding,
or engineering,
``(ii) having completed a vocational degree
in a field of renewable energy during the 1-
year period ending on the hiring date, or
``(iii) having completed a LEED
certification with the United States Green
Building Council.
``(C) Renewable energy.--For purposes of this
paragraph, renewable energy means resources that rely
on fuel sources that restore themselves over short
periods of time and do not diminish, including the Sun,
wind, moving water, organic plant and waste material,
and the Earth's heat.''.
(b) Treatment of Possessions.--
(1) Payments to possessions.--
(A) Mirror code possessions.--The Secretary of the
Treasury shall pay to each possession of the United
States with a mirror code tax system amounts equal to
the loss to that possession by reason of the amendment
made by this section. Such amounts shall be determined
by the Secretary of the Treasury based on information
provided by the government of the respective possession
of the United States.
(B) Other possessions.--The Secretary of the
Treasury shall pay to each possession of the United
States which does not have a mirror code tax system the
amount estimated by the Secretary of the Treasury as
being equal to the loss to that possession that would
have occurred by reason of the amendment made by this
section if a mirror code tax system had been in effect
in such possession. The preceding sentence shall not
apply with respect to any possession of the United
States unless such possession establishes to the
satisfaction of the Secretary that the possession has
implemented (or, at the discretion of the Secretary,
will implement) an income tax benefit which is
substantially equivalent to the income tax credit in

Mrs. Miller of Illinois introduced the following bill; which was
referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to modify the
definition of navigable waters, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Define WOTUS Act''.
SEC. 2. NAVIGABLE WATERS.
(a) Navigable Waters Definition.--Section 502 of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C. 1362) is amended by striking paragraph
(7) and inserting the following:
``(7) Navigable waters.--
``(A) In general.--The term `navigable waters'
means--
``(i) the territorial seas;
``(ii) interstate waters that are used, or
are susceptible to use in the natural and
ordinary condition of those waters, as a means
in transport of interstate or foreign commerce;
``(iii) relatively permanent, standing, or
continuously flowing bodies of water that form
geographical features commonly known as
streams, rivers, or lakes, that flow directly
into waters described in clause (ii); and
``(iv) wetlands that are adjacent to and
have a continuous surface water connection to
waters described in clause (ii) or (iii).
``(B) Exclusions.--The term `navigable waters' does
not include--
``(i) intermittent or ephemeral waters,
including features that flow only in response
to precipitation or melt from snowpack;
``(ii) subsurface waters, such as
groundwater or underground streams, including
subsurface waters drained through subsurface
drainage systems, such as drain tiling;
``(iii) intrastate waters, unless the
waters meet the requirements described in
subparagraph (A);
``(iv) a man-made channel or ditch,
including irrigation, distribution, and
drainage systems;
``(v) prior converted cropland;
``(vi) artificially irrigated areas;
``(vii) artificial lakes and ponds
constructed in upland;
``(viii) water-filled depressions created
in upland, including water-filled depressions
incidental to mining or construction activity;
``(ix) stormwater control features
excavated or constructed in upland to convey,
treat, infiltrate, or store stormwater runoff;
``(x) wastewater recycling structures
constructed in upland;
``(xi) waste treatment systems;
``(xii) waters that require the use of
means beyond visual inspection by the naked
eye, including aerial photographs, satellite
imaging, or hydrological testing, to determine
if the waters meets the requirements described
in subparagraph (A); or
``(xiii) any other waters that do not meet
the requirements under subparagraph (A),
without regard to whether the water--
``(I) previously met or would have
met those requirements; or
``(II) may in the future meet those
requirements.
``(C) Associated definitions.--For the purposes of
this paragraph:
``(i) Continuous surface water
connection.--The term `continuous surface water
connection' means a connection with respect to
which an ordinary person would not be able to
visually determine by the naked eye, by looking
at the water surface, where 1 body of water
ends and the other begins.
``(ii) Relatively permanent, standing, or
continuously flowing bodies of water.--The term
`relatively permanent, standing, or
continuously flowing bodies of water' means
waters that, except in cases of extreme events
(such as a drought)--
``(I) stand or have continuous flow
for not less than 185 days each year;
and
``(II) exhibit a bed and banks.''.
(b) Jurisdictional Determination.--Title V of the Federal Water
Pollution Control Act is amended--
(1) by redesignating section 520 (33 U.S.C. 1251 note) as
section 521; and
(2) by inserting after section 519 (33 U.S.C. 1377a) the
following:
``SEC. 520. JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATIONS.
``(a) Definitions.--In this section:
``(1) Affected person.--The term `affected person' means an
applicant for a permit under section 404, landowner, or other
affected person with an identifiable and substantial legal
interest in a property.
``(2) Secretary.--The term `Secretary' means the Secretary
of the Army.
``(b) Binding Determination.--On written request of an affected
person, the Secretary shall provide a binding determination of whether
the waters on the property of the affected person are navigable waters
that meet the requirements described in section 502(7)(A)(iv).
``(c) Costs.--A determination of the Secretary under subsection (b)
shall be made at the cost of the Secretary.
``(d) Timing.--
``(1) In general.--The Secretary shall make a determination
under subsection (b) not later than 60 days after the date on
which the Secretary receives a written request from an affected
person.
``(2) Effect of nonresponse.--If the Secretary does not
make a determination by the end of the period described in
paragraph (1), the waters on the property of the affected
person shall not be considered to be navigable waters.
``(e) Term of Determination.--
``(1) Finding of navigable waters.--If the Secretary
determines under subsection (b) that the waters on the property
of the affected person are navigable waters, the determination
shall be binding on the Secretary and the Administrator for a
period to be determined by the Secretary, but in any case not
longer than 5 years after the date of the determination.
``(2) Finding of nonnavigable waters.--If the Secretary
determines under subsection (b) that the waters on the property
of the affected person are not navigable waters, the
determination shall be binding on the Secretary and the
Administrator for as long as the affected person has an
identifiable and substantial legal interest in the property.
``(f) Judicial Review.--
``(1) In general.--An affected person may obtain expedited
judicial review of a determination of the Secretary under
subsection (b).
``(2) Timing.--To obtain expedited judicial review under
paragraph (1), the affected person shall submit a claim under
that paragraph not later than 30 days after the date on which
the Secretary makes the determination under subsection (b).
``(3) Jurisdiction.--A district court of the United States
with appropriate venue for the State in which the affected
person resides or in which a substantial part of the property
of the affected person is located shall have jurisdiction over
an action under this subsection.''.

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To exempt from the Lacey Act and the Lacey Act Amendments of 1981
certain water transfers between any of the States of Texas, Arkansas,
and Louisiana, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Public Water Supply Invasive Species
Compliance Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. EXEMPTION OF CERTAIN WATER TRANSFERS FROM THE LACEY ACT AND THE
LACEY ACT AMENDMENTS OF 1981.
(a) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Covered water transfer.--The term ``covered water
transfer'' means a transfer of water containing a prohibited
species between public water supplies located on, along, or
across the State boundaries between any of the States of Texas,
Arkansas, and Louisiana.
(2) Prohibited species.--The term ``prohibited species''
means any species--
(A) the shipment of which is otherwise prohibited
by section 42 of title 18, United States Code (commonly
known as the ``Lacey Act''); or
(B) the transfer of which is otherwise prohibited
by the Lacey Act Amendments of 1981 (16 U.S.C. 3371 et
seq.).
(3) Public water supply.--The term ``public water supply''
means any body of water, including any river, lake, or stream,
the water of which is available or made available to the
public.
(b) Exemption.--Section 42 of title 18, United States Code
(commonly known as the ``Lacey Act''), and the Lacey Act Amendments of
1981 (16 U.S.C. 3371 et seq.) shall not apply with respect to any
covered water transfer, if--
(1)(A) all prohibited species in the water transferred are
located in both of the public water supplies between which the
water is transferred;
(B) the water is transferred directly between those public
water supplies; and
(C) the water is subject to mitigation measures that are
reviewed and approved by the appropriate State agency of the
State to which the water is being transferred, including--
(i) chemically treating the water for suspected or
known prohibited species;
(ii) limiting transfers to certain times;
(iii) withdrawing water only from certain depths;
(iv) filtration; and
(v) enhanced monitoring; or
(2) the water is transferred in a closed conveyance system
directly to treatment facilities where all prohibited species
contained in the water transferred will be extirpated.
(c) Notification.--
(1) In general.--Before the first covered water transfer
described in subsection (b)(1) occurs in a calendar year and
subject to paragraph (2), the controlling authority of the
public water supply from which the water is to be transferred
(referred to in this subsection as the ``donor public water
supply'') shall submit to the controlling authority of the
public water supply to which the water is to be transferred
(referred to in this subsection as the ``recipient public water
supply'') a written notification that includes--
(A) the expected dates of the covered water
transfer;
(B) the volume of water to be transferred, which
may include a range of possible volumes of water that
may be transferred;
(C) a list of known prohibited species that are
contained in the donor public water supply;
(D) a certification that the known prohibited
species described in subparagraph (C) are present in
both the donor public water supply and the recipient
public water supply; and
(E) a notice of other known species present in the
donor public water supply that may be of concern to the
controlling authority of the recipient public water
supply, including species that are not prohibited by
the laws referred to in subsection (b).
(2) Additional notification.--In addition to the
notification required under paragraph (1), the controlling
authority of the donor public water supply shall provide to the
controlling authority of the recipient public water supply a
notification described in that paragraph if the controlling
authority of the donor public water supply discovers a new
prohibited species in the donor public water supply.
(d) Costs of Mitigation Measures.--The costs of the mitigation
measures described in subparagraph (C) of subsection (b)(1) for water
subject to a covered water transfer described in that subsection shall
be borne by the entity that sells the water for financial gain.

SEC. 3. PROVISION OF SAFE STORAGE LOCKERS AT BUILDING ENTRANCES.
(a) Responsibilities of Capitol Police Board.--Not later than 180
days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Capitol Police
Board shall design, install, and operate storage lockers at external
pedestrian entrances to each House office building, which may be used
while an employee of the House is in the building to safely store a
weapon which the employee brings into the building under section 2, and
from which the employee may retrieve the weapon when the employee
leaves the building.
(b) Regulations.--The Capitol Police Board shall promulgate such
regulations as may be required to carry out this section.
(c) Conforming Amendment.--Section 5104(e)(1)(A) of title 40,

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require the use of independent nonpartisan commissions to carry out
congressional redistricting and to require States to hold open
primaries for elections for Federal office.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Citizen Legislature Anti-Corruption
Reform of Elections Act'' or the ``CLEAN Elections Act''.
SEC. 2. REQUIRING USE OF INDEPENDENT NONPARTISAN COMMISSIONS TO CARRY
OUT REDISTRICTING.
(a) Requirement.--
(1) Congressional redistricting.--Each State shall conduct
Congressional redistricting (beginning with the redistricting
carried out pursuant to the decennial census conducted during
2020) in accordance with a redistricting plan developed by a
nonpartisan independent redistricting commission.
(2) Redistricting for state legislative districts.--
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a State may not use
any funds provided by the Federal Government directly for
election administration purposes unless the State certifies to
the Election Assistance Commission that the State conducts
redistricting for State legislative districts in the State
(beginning with the first such redistricting carried out after
the date of the enactment of this Act) in accordance with a
redistricting plan developed by a nonpartisan independent
redistricting commission.
(b) Nonpartisan Independent Status.--For purposes of this section,
a commission shall be considered to be a nonpartisan independent
commission if--
(1) the number of its members who are affiliated with the
political party with the largest percentage of the registered
voters in the State who are affiliated with a political party
(as determined with respect to the most recent statewide
election for Federal office held in the State for which such
information is available) is equal to the number of its members
who are affiliated with the political party with the second
largest percentage of the registered voters in the State who
are affiliated with a political party (as so determined); and
(2) none of its members is an elected public official.
(c) State Defined.--In this section, the term ``State'' means each
of the several States.
SEC. 3. REQUIRING OPEN PRIMARIES.
(a) In General.--
(1) Elections for federal office.--Each State shall hold
open primaries for elections for Federal office held in the
State.
(2) Elections for state and local office.--Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, a State may not use any funds
provided by the Federal Government directly for election
administration purposes unless the State certifies to the
Election Assistance Commission that the State holds open
primaries for elections for State and local office.
(b) Open Primaries Described.--For purposes of this section, a
State holds open primaries for an election for an office if any
individual who is registered to vote in a general election for such
office in the State may cast a ballot in any primary election
(including a primary election held for the selection of delegates to a
national nominating convention of a political party and a primary
election held for the expression of a preference for the nomination of
individuals for election to the office of President) held by any
political party to nominate candidates for election for that office,
including a convention or caucus of a political party which has
authority to nominate a candidate.
(c) State Defined.--In this section, the term ``State'' has the
meaning given such term in section 901 of the Help America Vote Act of
2002 (52 U.S.C. 21141).
(d) Effective Date.--Subsection (a) shall apply with respect to
elections held after the date of the enactment of this Act.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1570
To enhance mental health and psychosocial support within United States
development and humanitarian assistance programs.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Ms. Wild (for herself, Mr. Wilson of South Carolina, Mr. Castro of
Texas, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Mr. Moulton, Mrs. McBath, and Ms. Titus)
introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To enhance mental health and psychosocial support within United States
development and humanitarian assistance programs.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Mental Health in International
Development and Humanitarian Settings Act'' or the ``MINDS Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS; SENSE OF CONGRESS.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an
estimated 1,000,000,000 individuals worldwide have a mental
health or substance use disorder, and The Lancet estimates that
nearly 130,000,000 additional cases of major depressive and
anxiety disorders globally in 2020 resulted from the COVID-19
pandemic.
(2) According to WHO, depression is among the primary
causes of illness and disability in adolescents. One-half of
mental health disorders emerge by age 14, and 14 percent of
children and adolescents worldwide experience mental health
conditions, the majority of whom do not seek care, receive
care, or have access to care.
(3) According to the United Nations, more than 1 out of
every 5 individuals in conflict-affected areas has a mental
health disorder. Roughly 1,500,000,000, or 2 out of every 3 of
the world's children under 18 years of age live in countries
affected by conflict, and more than 1 out of every 6 children
live in conflict zones. A greater number of children live in
areas affected by armed conflict and war now than at any other
point this century. The mental health burden in conflict-
affected contexts is twice the global average.
(4) According to the World Health Organization, risk
factors that increase susceptibility to mental health disorders
include poverty and hunger, chronic health conditions, trauma
or maltreatment, social exclusion and discrimination, and
exposure to and displacement by war or conflict. These risk
factors, along with demographic risk factors, manifest at all
stages in life. Preliminary research already illustrates that
the COVID-19 pandemic has increased communities', families',
and individuals' risk factors for multiple types of adversity
and compounded preexisting conditions and vulnerabilities.
(5) According to a Lancet Commission report, allocations
for mental health have never risen above 1 percent of health-
related global development assistance. Estimates indicate that
child and adolescent mental health receives just 0.1 percent of
health-related global development assistance.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) helping to ensure that individuals have the opportunity
to thrive and reach their fullest potential is a critical
component of effective and sustainable international
development efforts;
(2) mental health is integral and essential to overall
health outcomes and other development objectives;
(3) mental health is an issue of critical and growing
importance for United States development and humanitarian
assistance programs that requires coordinated efforts to ensure
that programming funded by the United States Government is
evidence-based, culturally competent, and trauma-informed;
(4) the relevant United States Government development and
humanitarian assistance strategies should include a mental
health and psychosocial support component;
(5) the redesign of the United States Agency for
International Development reflects the nexus between
humanitarian and development interventions and should be
applied to all mental health and psychosocial support efforts
of United States development and humanitarian assistance
programs; and
(6) ongoing efforts to improve social service workforce
development and local capacity building are essential to
expanding mental health and psychosocial support activities
across all United States development and humanitarian
assistance programs.
SEC. 3. COORDINATOR FOR MENTAL HEALTH AND PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT.
Section 135 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (22 U.S.C. 2152f)
is amended--
(1) by redesignating subsection (f) as subsection (g); and
(2) by inserting after subsection (e) the following:
``(f) Coordinator for Mental Health and Psychosocial Support.--
``(1) In general.--The Administrator of the United States
Agency for International Development, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, is authorized to designate a Mental Health
and Psychosocial Support Coordinator (referred to in this
section as the `MHPSS Coordinator').
``(2) Specific duties.--The duties of the MHPSS Coordinator
shall include--
``(A) establishing and chairing the Mental Health
and Psychosocial Support Working Group authorized under
section 4 of the Mental Health in International
Development and Humanitarian Settings Act;
``(B) guiding, overseeing, and directing mental
health and psychosocial support programming and
integration across United States development and
humanitarian assistance programs;
``(C) serving as the main point of contact on
mental health and psychosocial support in the Bureau
for Global Health, Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance,
regional bureaus, the Office of Education, the
Inclusive Development Hub in the Bureau of Development,
Democracy, and Innovation, and other bureaus as
appropriate, the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS
Relief, and other interagency or presidential
initiatives;
``(D) promoting best practices, coordination, and
reporting in mental health and psychosocial support
programming across United States development and
humanitarian assistance programs;
``(E) providing direction, guidance, and oversight
on the integration of mental health and psychosocial
support in United States development and humanitarian
assistance programs; and
``(F) participating in the Advancing Protection and
Care for Children in Adversity Interagency Working
Group.
``(3) Focus populations.--The MHPSS Coordinator should, as
appropriate, prioritize populations with increased risk factors
for developing mental health disorders, including--
``(A) adult caretakers and children, as well as
families and adults who are long-term caretakers;
``(B) children and others who are separated from a
family unit; and
``(C) other specific populations in need of mental
health and psychosocial support, such as crisis
affected communities, displaced populations, gender-
based violence survivors, and individuals and
households coping with the consequences of diseases,
such as Ebola, HIV/AIDS, and COVID-19.''.
SEC. 4. MENTAL HEALTH AND PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT WORKING GROUP.

1st Session
H. R. 1572
To award a Congressional Gold Medal to the female telephone operators
of the Army Signal Corps, known as the ``Hello Girls''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Cleaver (for himself, Mr. Graves of Missouri, Ms. Davids of Kansas,
and Ms. Mace) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Financial Services, and in addition to the Committee on
House Administration, for a period to be subsequently determined by the
Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To award a Congressional Gold Medal to the female telephone operators
of the Army Signal Corps, known as the ``Hello Girls''.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Hello Girls Congressional Gold Medal
Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) On April 6, 1917, the United States declared war
against Germany. As a historically neutral nation, the United
States was unprepared to fight a technologically modern
conflict overseas. The United States called upon American
Telephone and Telegraph (referred to in this section as
``AT&T'') to provide equipment and trained personnel for the
Army Signal Corps in France. AT&T executives in Army uniform
served at home under the provisions of the Act entitled ``An
Act for making further and more effectual provision for the
national defense, and for other purposes.'', approved June 3,
1916 (referred to in this section as the ``National Defense Act
of 1916''), which allowed for the induction of individuals with
specialized skills into a reserve force.
(2) When General John Pershing sailed for Europe in May of
1917, as head of the American Expeditionary Forces (referred to
in this section as the ``AEF''), he took telephone operating
equipment with him in recognition of the inadequacy of European
circuitry and with the understanding that telephones would play
a key role in battlefield communications for the first time in
the history of war.
(3) From May to November of 1917, the AEF struggled to
develop the telephone service necessary for the Army to
function under battlefield conditions. Monolingual infantrymen
from the United States were unable to connect calls rapidly or
communicate effectively with their French counterparts to put
calls through over toll lines that linked one region of the
country with another. The Army found that the average male
operator required 60 seconds to make a connection. That rate
was unacceptably slow, especially for operational calls between
command outposts and the front lines.
(4) During this time, in the United States, telephone
operating was largely sex-segregated. Hired for their speed in
connecting calls, women filled 85 percent of the telephone
operating positions in the United States. It took the average
female operator 10 seconds to make a connection.
(5) On November 8, 1917, General Pershing cabled the War
Department and wrote, ``On account of the great difficulty of
obtaining properly qualified men, request organization and
dispatch to France a force of women telephone operators all
speaking French and English equally well.''. To begin, General
Pershing requested 100 women under the command of a
commissioned captain, writing that ``All should have allowances
of Army nurses and should be uniformed.''.
(6) The War Department sent press releases to newspapers
across the United States to recruit women willing to serve for
the duration of the war and face the hazards of submarine
warfare and aerial bombardment. These articles emphasized that
patriotic women would be ``full-fledged soldier[s] under the
articles of war'' and would ``do as much to help win the war as
the men in khaki who go `over the top.'''. All women selected
would take the Army oath.
(7) More than 7,600 women volunteered for the 100 positions
described in paragraph (5) and the first recruits took the Army
oath on January 15, 1918.
(8) Like nurses and doctors at the time, female Signal
Corps members had relative rather than traditional ranks and
were ranked as Operator, Supervisor, or Chief Operator. When
promoted, the women were required to swear the Army oath again.
(9) Telephone operators were the first women to serve as
soldiers in non-medical classifications and the job of the
operators was to help win the war, not to mitigate the harms of
the war. In popular parlance, they were known as the ``Hello
Girls''.
(10) Signal Corps Operators wore Army uniforms and Army
insignia always, as well as standard-issue identity disks in
case of death, and were subject to court martial for
infractions of the military code.
(11) Unbeknownst to the women operators and their immediate
officers, the legal counsel of the Army ruled internally on
March 20, 1918, that the women were not actually soldiers but
contract employees, even though the women had not seen or
signed any contracts. Military code allowed only for the
induction of men and the code remained unchanged despite the
orders of General Pershing. Nevertheless, legal counsel also
recognized that the National Defense Act of 1916, which allowed
for the induction of members of the telephone industry of the
United States into the Armed Forces, imposed no gender
restrictions.
(12) Four days later, on March 24, 1918, the first
contingent of operators began their official duties in France.
The operators arrived before most infantrymen of the Armed
Forces in order to facilitate logistics and deployment and
spent their first night in Paris under German bombardment.
(13) After the arrival of the operators, telephone service
in France improved immediately, as calls tripled from 13,000 to
36,000 per day.
(14) The Army quickly recruited, trained, and deployed 5
additional contingents of female Signal Corps operators. With
these personnel, calls increased to 150,000 per day.
(15) In addition to standard telephone operating, bilingual
Signal Corps members provided simultaneous translation between
officers from France and officers from the United States, who
were communicating by telephone.
(16) The AEF fought their first major battles in the last 2
months of the war. By that point, the Signal Corps considered
the contributions of women to be so essential that, in
telephone exchanges closest to the front line, the Army
exclusively used women, in rotating 12-hour shifts. In the
rear, the Army established rotating 8-hour shifts and gave male
soldiers the overnight shift when telephone traffic was slower.
(17) Seven bilingual operators--
(A) served at the Battles of St. Mihiel and Meuse-
Argonne under the immediate command of General
Pershing;
(B) staffed the Operations Boards through which
orders to advance, fire, and retreat were delivered to
soldiers in the trenches, to artillery units on alert,
and to pilots awaiting orders at French airfields; and
(C) were awarded a ``Defensive Sector Clasp'' for
the Meuse-Argonne operation.
(18) The Chief Operator supervising the Hello Girls, Grace
Banker of Passaic, New Jersey, was awarded the Distinguished
Service Medal. Out of 16,000 eligible Signal Corps officers,
Banker was one of only 18 individuals so honored.
(19) Thirty additional operators received special
commendations, many signed by General Pershing himself, for
``exceptionally meritorious and conspicuous services'' in
``Advance Sections'' of the conflict.
(20) The war ended on November 11, 1918. As of that date,
223 female operators served in France and had connected
26,000,000 calls for the AEF.
(21) The Chief Signal Officer of the Army Signal Corps
wrote in his official report 2 days after the date on which the
war ended that ``a large part of the success of the
communications of this Army is due to . . . a competent staff
of women operators.''.
(22) After the war ended, some women were ordered to
Coblenz in Germany for the occupation of that country and to
Paris for the Paris Peace Treaty of 1919 to continue telephone
operations, sometimes in direct support of President Woodrow
Wilson.
(23) Two operators, Corah Bartlett and Inez Crittenden,
died in France in the service of the United States and were
buried there in military cemeteries with military ceremonies.
Those operators died of the same influenza pandemic that killed
more soldiers of the Armed Forces than combat operations.
(24) Women of the Army Signal Corps were ineligible for
discharge until formal release. Because of their role in
logistics, those women were among the last soldiers to come
home to the United States. The last Signal Corps operators
returned from France in January of 1920.
(25) Upon arrival in the United States, the Army informed
female veterans that they had performed as civilians, not
soldiers, even though operators had served in Army uniform in a
theater of war surrounded by men who were similarly engaged.
(26) Despite the objections of General George Squier, the
top-ranking officer in the Signal Corps, the Army denied Signal
Corps women the veterans' benefits granted to male soldiers and
female nurses, such as--
(A) hospitalization for disabilities incurred in
the line of duty;
(B) cash bonuses;
(C) soldiers' pensions;
(D) flags on their coffins; and
(E) the Victory Medals promised them in France.
(27) For the next 60 years, female veterans, led by Merle
Egan from Montana, petitioned Congress more than 50 times for
their recognition. In 1977, under the sponsorship of Senator
Barry Goldwater, Congress passed legislation to retroactively
acknowledge the military service of the Women's Airforce
Service Pilots (referred to in this section as ``WASPs'') of
World War II and ``the service of any person in any other
similarly situated group the members of which rendered service
to the Armed Forces of the United States in a capacity
considered civilian employment or contractual service at the
time such service was rendered''.
(28) On November 23, 1977, President Jimmy Carter signed
the legislation described in paragraph (27) into law as the GI
Bill Improvement Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-202; 91 Stat.
1433).
(29) The Signal Corps telephone operators applied for, and
were granted, status as veterans in 1979.
(30) Only 33 of the operators who had returned home after
the war were still alive to receive their Victory Medals and
official discharge papers, which were finally awarded in 1979.
(31) One of the women, Olive Shaw from Massachusetts,
returned to the United States after the war, where she worked
on the professional staff of Congresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers.
Shaw lived to receive her honorable discharge and was the first
burial when the Massachusetts National Cemetery opened on
October 11, 1980. Shaw's uniform is on display at the National
World War I Museum and Memorial in Kansas City, Missouri.
(32) Upon receipt of her honorable discharge at a ceremony
in her home in Marine City, Michigan, ``Hello Girl'' Oleda
Joure Christides raised the paper to her lips and kissed it.
The only thing Christides ever wanted from the Federal
Government was a flag on her coffin.
(33) On July 1, 2009, President Barack Obama signed into
law Public Law 111-40 (123 Stat. 1958), which awarded the WASPs
the Congressional Gold Medal for their service to the United
States.
(34) For their role as pioneers who paved the way for all
women in uniform, and for service that was essential to victory
in World War I, the ``Hello Girls'' merit similar recognition.
SEC. 3. CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDAL.
(a) Award Authorized.--The Speaker of the House of Representatives
and the President pro tempore of the Senate shall make appropriate

H. R. 1578
To provide grants to States to ensure that all students in the middle
grades are taught an academically rigorous curriculum with effective
supports so that students complete the middle grades prepared for
success in secondary school and postsecondary endeavors, to improve
State and local educational agency policies and programs relating to
the academic achievement of students in the middle grades, to develop
and implement effective middle grades models for struggling students,
and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Grijalva (for himself and Mr. Garcia of Illinois) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Education and
the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To provide grants to States to ensure that all students in the middle
grades are taught an academically rigorous curriculum with effective
supports so that students complete the middle grades prepared for
success in secondary school and postsecondary endeavors, to improve
State and local educational agency policies and programs relating to
the academic achievement of students in the middle grades, to develop
and implement effective middle grades models for struggling students,
and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Success in the Middle Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Research shows that Federal funding for students in
middle school and high school, particularly grades 6 through
12, is significantly lower than funding for elementary and
postsecondary students.
(2) International comparisons indicate that students in the
United States do not start out behind students of other nations
in mathematics and science, but that they fall behind by the
end of the middle grades.
(3) In reading, 31 percent of students in grade 8 read at
or above the proficient level on the 2022 National Assessment
of Educational Progress. Average reading scores were lower at
grade 8 for most racial/ethnic groups compared to 2019.
(4) In mathematics, 27 percent of students in grade 8
displayed skills at or above the proficient level on the 2022
National Assessment of Educational Progress.
(5) Evidence demonstrates unfinished learning for the
Nation's students, including students from the middle grades,
resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Black and Hispanic
students, in particular, were less likely to have access to the
prerequisites of learning--devices, internet access, and live
contact with teachers. Left unaddressed, these opportunity gaps
could translate into wider achievement gaps.
(6) By grade 6, a student who attends school less than 80
percent of the time, receives unsatisfactory marks for mild but
sustained misbehavior, or who fails English or mathematics, has
only a 10 to 20 percent chance of graduating on time. Without
effective interventions and proper supports, these students are
at risk of subsequent failure in secondary school, or of
dropping out.
(7) According to Gallup, student engagement is strong at
the end of elementary school, with nearly \3/4\ of 5th graders
(74%) reporting high levels of engagement. But similar surveys
have shown a gradual and steady decline in engagement for older
students, with approximately \1/2\ of students in middle school
reporting high levels of engagement.
(8) Student transitions from elementary school to the
middle grades and to secondary school are often complicated by
poor curriculum alignment, inadequate counseling services, and
unsatisfactory sharing of student performance and academic
achievement data between grades.
(9) Middle grades improvement strategies should be tailored
based on a variety of performance indicators and data, so
that--
(A) educators can create and implement successful
school improvement strategies to address the needs of
the middle grades; and
(B) teachers can provide effective instruction and
adequate assistance to meet the needs of at-risk
students.
(10) Middle grade teachers face unique challenges due to
the increased individual subject matter focus of the curriculum
combined with the physical, intellectual, and emotional changes
faced by early adolescents transitioning from elementary school
to high school.
(11) Combining measures of academic achievement and
motivation, social engagement, and self-regulation--the
behavioral domains essential for success across the school and
work continuum--provides a more holistic picture of students,
including their likelihood of enrolling in an institution of
higher education following high school graduation. This
information, available in middle school, allows for early
identification of and intervention with students who may be
less likely to complete secondary school and attend an
institution of higher education.
(12) Appropriate academic accommodations, age-appropriate
discipline, access to assistive technology, and evidence-based
interventions must be used with students with disabilities,
particularly in the middle grades, as--
(A) the dropout rate for learning disabled students
is more than twice the dropout rate of all students;
(B) nearly half of young adults with learning
disabilities have been involved in the justice system;
and
(C) students with disabilities have a graduation
rate nearly 20 percentage points lower than the
graduation rate for general education students.
(13) Local educational agencies and State educational
agencies often do not have the capacity to provide support for
school improvement strategies. Successful models do exist for
turning around low-performing middle grades, and Federal
support should be provided to increase the capacity to apply
promising practices based on evidence from successful schools.

this title for a fiscal year, or if the application from the
State educational agency is not approved, the Secretary shall
reallot the amount of the State's allotment to the remaining
States in accordance with this section.
(2) Unused funds.--The Secretary may reallot any amount of
an allotment to a State if the Secretary determines that the
State will be unable to use such amount within 2 years of such
allotment. Such reallotments shall be made on the same basis as
allotments are made under subsection (c).
(f) Application.--In order to receive an allotment under this

principals who have been recognized at the State or national
level for exemplary work or contributions to the field;
(3) shall ensure that State educational agencies are given
the opportunity to receive timely feedback, and to interact
with peer-review panels, in person or via electronic
communication, on issues that need clarification during the

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the

SEC. 2. CLASS SCHEDULING OF FENTANYL-RELATED SUBSTANCES.
Section 202(c) of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 812(c))
is amended by adding at the end of schedule I the following:
``(e)(1) Unless specifically exempted or unless listed in another
schedule, any material, compound, mixture, or preparation which
contains any quantity of a fentanyl-related substance, or which
contains the salts, isomers, and salts of isomers of a fentanyl-related
substance whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of
isomers is possible within the specific chemical designation.
``(2) For purposes of paragraph (1), except as provided in
paragraph (3), the term `fentanyl-related substance' means any
substance that is structurally related to fentanyl by 1 or more of the
following modifications:
``(A) By replacement of the phenyl portion of the phenethyl
group by any monocycle, whether or not further substituted in
or on the monocycle.
``(B) By substitution in or on the phenethyl group with

``(3) A substance that satisfies the definition of the term
`fentanyl-related substance' in paragraph (2) shall nonetheless not be
treated as a fentanyl-related substance subject to this schedule if the
substance--
``(A) is controlled by action of the Attorney General under
section 201; or

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Personal Health Investment Today Act
of 2023'' or the ``PHIT Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. PURPOSE.
The purpose of this Act is to promote health and prevent disease,
particularly diseases related to being overweight or obese, by--
(1) encouraging healthier lifestyles;
(2) providing financial incentives to ease the financial
burden of engaging in healthy behavior; and
(3) increasing the ability of individuals and families to
participate in physical fitness activities.
SEC. 3. CERTAIN AMOUNTS PAID FOR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, FITNESS, AND
EXERCISE TREATED AS AMOUNTS PAID FOR MEDICAL CARE.
(a) In General.--Paragraph (1) of section 213(d) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by striking ``or'' at the end of
subparagraph (C), by striking the period at the end of subparagraph (D)
and inserting ``, or'', and by inserting after subparagraph (D) the
following new subparagraph:
``(E) for qualified sports and fitness expenses.''.
(b) Qualified Sports and Fitness Expenses.--Subsection (d) of
section 213 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by adding
at the end the following new paragraph:
``(12) Qualified sports and fitness expenses.--
``(A) In general.--The term `qualified sports and
fitness expenses' means amounts paid exclusively for
the sole purpose of participating in a physical
activity including--
``(i) for membership at a fitness facility,
``(ii) for participation or instruction in
physical exercise or physical activity, or
``(iii) for equipment used in a program
(including a self-directed program) of physical
exercise or physical activity.
``(B) Overall dollar limitation.--The aggregate
amount treated as qualified sports and fitness expenses
with respect to any taxpayer for any taxable year shall
not exceed $1,000 ($2,000 in the case of a joint return
or a head of household (as defined in section 2(b))).
``(C) Fitness facility.--For purposes of
subparagraph (A)(i), the term `fitness facility' means
a facility--
``(i) which provides instruction in a
program of physical exercise, offers facilities
for the preservation, maintenance,
encouragement, or development of physical
fitness, or serves as the site of such a
program of a State or local government,
``(ii) which is not a private club owned
and operated by its members,
``(iii) which does not offer golf, hunting,
sailing, or riding facilities,
``(iv) the health or fitness component of
which is not incidental to its overall function
and purpose, and
``(v) which is fully compliant with the
State of jurisdiction and Federal anti-
discrimination laws.
``(D) Treatment of exercise videos, etc.--Videos,
books, and similar materials shall be treated as
described in subparagraph (A)(ii) if the content of
such materials constitutes instruction in a program of
physical exercise or physical activity.
``(E) Limitations related to sports and fitness
equipment.--Amounts paid for equipment described in
subparagraph (A)(iii) shall be treated as qualified
sports and fitness expenses only--
``(i) if such equipment is utilized
exclusively for participation in fitness,
exercise, sport, or other physical activity,
``(ii) in the case of amounts paid for
apparel or footwear, if such apparel or
footwear is of a type that is necessary for,
and is not used for any purpose other than, a
specific physical activity, and
``(iii) in the case of amounts paid for any
single item of sports equipment (other than
exercise equipment), to the extent such amounts
do not exceed $250.
``(F) Programs which include components other than
physical exercise and physical activity.--Rules similar
to the rules of paragraph (6) shall apply in the case
of any program that includes physical exercise or
physical activity and also other components. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, travel and
accommodations shall be treated as a separate
component.''.
(c) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to taxable years beginning after the date of the enactment of
this Act.

1st Session
H. R. 1585
To require a State receiving funds pursuant to title II of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to implement a State
policy to prohibit a school employee from conducting certain social
gender transition interventions.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. LaMalfa introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To require a State receiving funds pursuant to title II of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to implement a State
policy to prohibit a school employee from conducting certain social
gender transition interventions.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Prohibiting Parental Secrecy
Policies In Schools Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Parents are in the best position to know their own
child's needs and circumstances, and therefore they should
maintain authority over all decisions that could impact the
health and well-being of their children.
(2) The fundamental rights of parents over the upbringing,
education, and care of their children has been unequivocally
established in the United States.
(3) The fundamental right of parents to direct the
education of their children, including the right to play a
central role in what their children are learning shall be
upheld.
(4) Academic success begins by embracing these fundamental
parental rights in our educational institutions.
(5) It is essential that parents' voices are respected and
incorporated into the development of academic curricula to
ensure that their children are receiving an appropriate
education.
(6) Education must focus on academic subjects, and, without
exception, should not include personal bias, personal political
opinion, or indoctrination.
(7) A parent should have the right to opt-in review and
evaluate all survey, data collection, and psychological
profiling before it is administered to their students and
parents should have the right to opt-out of all such testing,
survey participation, or data collection.
(8) The traditional partnership between school employees,
students, and parents by involving parents in the education of
their children shall be upheld.
SEC. 3. STATE POLICY PROHIBITING CERTAIN SOCIAL GENDER TRANSITION
INTERVENTIONS.
(a) Social Gender Transition Intervention With Respect to a
Minor.--Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of the
this Act, to be eligible to receive funding pursuant to title II of the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 6601 et seq.)
a State shall have in effect a State policy prohibiting a school
employee from--
(1) using pronouns for a minor that are inconsistent with
the minor's biological sex for the purpose of recognizing or
promoting a self-professed identity that is incongruent with
their biological sex, without the consent of a custodial parent
or legal guardian;
(2) providing, promoting, referring to, or otherwise
assisting in the use of devices, medical and otherwise, such as
binders, packers, or padding, that promote changes to the
minor's physical appearance so that it aligns with the opposite
biological sex for the purpose of recognizing or promoting a
self-professed identity that is incongruent with their
biological sex, without the consent of a custodial parent or
legal guardian; and
(3) carrying out any other action designed to assist a
minor in the promotion or adoption of their self-professed
gender identity and denial of their biological sex, without the
consent of a custodial parent or legal guardian.
(b) Definitions.--In this section:
(1) Biological sex.--The term ``biological sex'' means the
biological indicators of male or female in the context of
reproductive potential or capacity, such as sex chromosomes,
naturally occurring sex hormones, gonads, and non-ambiguous
internal and external genitalia present at birth, without
regard to an individual's psychological, chosen, or subjective
experience of gender.
(2) Gender.--The term ``gender'' means the psychological,
behavioral, social, and cultural aspects of being male or
female.
(3) School employee.--The term ``school employee''
includes--
(A) a teacher, substitute teacher, school
administrator, school superintendent, guidance
counselor, psychologist, social worker, nurse,
physician, school paraprofessional or coach employed by
a public elementary or secondary school or local
educational agency in a State;
(B) an individual associated with the
administration or financing of an extracurricular
activity hosted by or at a public elementary or
secondary school; or
(C) any other individual who, in the performance of
his or her duties, has regular contact with students
under the age of 18 years old and who provides services
to or on behalf of such students enrolled in a public
elementary or secondary school, pursuant to a contract
with the public elementary or secondary school, State
educational agency, or local educational agency.
(4) State.--The term ``State'' means each of the several
States, the District of Columbia, and any commonwealth,
territory, or possession of the United States.

network of providers from imposing higher cost-sharing than the levels
specified in subsection (a) for selected insulin products described in
this section that are delivered by an out-of-network provider.
``(d) Rule of Construction.--Subsection (a) shall not be construed
to require coverage of, or prevent a group health plan or health
insurance coverage from imposing cost-sharing other than the levels
specified in subsection (a) on, insulin products that are not selected
insulin products or insulin products for an individual not described in
subsection (a), to the extent that such coverage is not otherwise
required and such cost-sharing is otherwise permitted under Federal and
applicable State law.
``(e) Application of Cost-Sharing Towards Deductibles and Out-of-
Pocket Maximums.--Any cost-sharing payments made pursuant to subsection
(a)(2) shall be counted toward any deductible or out-of-pocket maximum

Affordable Care Act (42 U.S.C. 18022(e)) is amended by adding
at the end the following:

``(A) In general.--Notwithstanding paragraph
(1)(B)(i), a health plan described in paragraph (1)
shall provide coverage of selected insulin products,
with respect to an enrolled individual who is 26 years
of age or younger, in accordance with section 2799A-11
of the Public Health Service Act, before the enrolled
individual has incurred, during the plan year, cost-
sharing expenses in an amount equal to the annual
limitation in effect under subsection (c)(1) for the
plan year.
``(B) Terminology.--For purposes of subparagraph
(A)--
``(i) the term `selected insulin products'
has the meaning given such term in section
2799A-11(b) of the Public Health Service Act;
and
``(ii) the requirements of section 2799A-11

To designate the clinic of the Department of Veterans Affairs in
Gallup, New Mexico, as the Hiroshi ``Hershey'' Miyamura VA Clinic.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Leger Fernandez (for herself and Ms. Stansbury) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Veterans'
Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To designate the clinic of the Department of Veterans Affairs in
Gallup, New Mexico, as the Hiroshi ``Hershey'' Miyamura VA Clinic.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. DESIGNATION OF HIROSHI ``HERSHEY'' MIYAMURA DEPARTMENT OF
VETERANS AFFAIRS CLINIC.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) Hiroshi ``Hershey'' Miyamura was born on October 6,
1925, in Gallup, New Mexico.
(2) A second generation Japanese American, Hershey Miyamura
first served in the United States Army near the end of World
War II.
(3) Hershey Miyamura served in the Army at a time when many
of his fellow Japanese Americans, and that includes his future
wife, were detained in internment camps in the United States.
(4) Hershey Miyamura served in the storied 442nd Infantry
Regiment, which was composed of soldiers with Japanese ancestry
and became one of the most decorated units in the history of
the United States military.
(5) Following the start of the Korean War in 1950, the Army
recalled Hershey Miyamura, who had remained as a member of the
reserve components of the Army, back into active duty.
(6) During an overnight firefight from April 24 to April
25, 1951, then-Corporal Miyamura covered the withdrawal of his
entire company from advancing enemy forces as a machine gun
squad leader.
(7) The selfless actions by Hershey Miyamura that night
allowed all 16 of his men to withdraw safely before he was
severely wounded and captured as a prisoner of war.
(8) Nearly 2\1/2\ years later, following his release and
return to the United States, President Eisenhower presented
Hershey Miyamura with the Congressional Medal of Honor in a
ceremony at the White House.
(9) The lifelong dedication of Hershey Miyamura to the
United States never ceased. It continued long after his
decorated military service ended.
(10) After he received his honorable discharge from the
Army, Hershey Miyamura opened a service station along Route 66
in his hometown of Gallup, New Mexico.
(11) Hershey Miyamura remained active in his community
until his dying days, advocating for his fellow veterans and
inspiring young people with lectures on patriotism, faith, and
service.
(b) Designation.--The clinic of the Department of Veterans Affairs
located at 2075 South NM Highway 602, Gallup, New Mexico, shall after
the date of the enactment of this Act be known and designated as the
``Hiroshi `Hershey' Miyamura Department of Veterans Affairs Clinic'' or
the ``Hiroshi `Hershey' Miyamura VA Clinic''.
(c) References.--Any reference in any law, regulation, map,
document, paper, or other record of the United States to the clinic
referred to in subsection (b) shall be considered to be a reference to
the ``Hiroshi `Hershey' Miyamura VA Clinic''.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. R. 1594
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to eliminate lead oxide,
antimony, and sulfuric acid as taxable chemicals under the Superfund
excise taxes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Meuser (for himself and Mr. Moolenaar) introduced the following
bill; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to eliminate lead oxide,
antimony, and sulfuric acid as taxable chemicals under the Superfund
excise taxes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``USA Batteries Act''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The Superfund fee established in Public Law 117-58
makes American manufacturing less competitive by imposing a tax
on chemicals used in domestic battery production that is not
levied on imported batteries.
(2) America's lead battery industry has a manufacturing
capacity of more than 165 GWh, a $23.6 billion domestic
economic impact annually, and creates more than 25,000 direct
jobs in 38 States.
(3) Lead batteries have a 99 percent recycling rate and are
a truly sustainable energy storage technology.
(4) Lead batteries are critical for many sectors, including
defense, transportation, logistics, telecommunications, and
energy generation.
(5) Increased taxes on domestic production create a
disadvantage for American manufacturers and reduce the global
competitiveness of the domestic lead battery industry by
increasing the costs of key raw materials.
SEC. 3. ELIMINATION OF LEAD OXIDE, ANTIMONY, AND SULFURIC ACID AS
TAXABLE CHEMICALS UNDER SUPERFUND EXCISE TAXES.
The table in section 4661(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended by Public Law 117-58, is amended by striking the rows
relating to lead oxide, antimony, and sulfuric acid.

These standards include stress testing, leverage limits, liquidity requirements, and resolution plan requirements (i.e., living will requirements). Under current law, the Federal Reserve has the discretion to determine the applicability of these standards to bank holding companies with assets between $100 billion and $250 billion.</p> <p>The bill also expands stress testing by </p> <ul> <li>increasing the number of board-run stress test scenarios from two to three; </li> <li>decreasing the asset threshold at which company-run stress tests are required from $250 billion to $10 billion; and </li> <li>requiring company-run stress tests to be performed annually or semiannually, depending on the amount of assets held.</li> </ul> <p>The bill also decreases from $50 billion to $10 billion the asset threshold for mandatory risk committees.</p> | <html><body><pre>[Congressional Bills 118th Congress]

1st Session
H. R. 1598
To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to prohibit
discrimination in the payment of wages on account of sex, race, or
national origin, and for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Norton introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to prohibit
discrimination in the payment of wages on account of sex, race, or
national origin, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
(a) Short Title.--This Act may be cited as the ``Fair Pay Act of
2023''.
(b) Reference.--Except as provided in section 8, whenever in this
Act an amendment or repeal is expressed in terms of an amendment to, or
repeal of, a section or other provision, the reference shall be
considered to be made to a section or other provision of the Fair Labor
Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C. 201 et seq.).
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) Wage rate differentials exist between equivalent jobs
segregated by sex, race, and national origin in Government
employment and in industries engaged in commerce or in the
production of goods for commerce.
(2) Discrimination in hiring and promotion has played a
role in maintaining a segregated work force.
(3) Many women and people of color work in occupations
dominated by individuals of their same sex, race, and national
origin.
(A) While a wage rate differential exists in nearly
every occupational field, traditionally male jobs tend
to pay better than traditionally female jobs which
require equal skill, effort, and responsibility, and
which are performed under similar working conditions.
(B) Traditionally male jobs that are low-wage
require less skill, education, and certifications than
traditionally female jobs that are low-wage, despite
their generally receiving higher pay.
(4) In 2015, a woman in the United States working in a
full-time, year-round job earned 80 cents for every dollar
earned by a man working in a full-time, year-round job.
(A) The wage gap is larger when the data is
disaggregated by race. Among women who hold full-time,
year-round jobs in the United States, African-American
women were paid on average, only 63 percent of what
White men were paid in 2015, while Native Hawaiian and
Other Pacific Islander women were paid 60 percent,
American Indian and Alaska Native women were paid 58
percent, and Hispanic and Latina women were paid only
54 percent.
(B) The gender pay gap persists across educational
levels. As a result, women who complete college degrees
are less able to pay off their student loans promptly,
leaving them paying more and for a longer time than
men. In 2012, among students who graduated in 2007-
2008, women working full-time had paid off 33 percent
of their student loan debt on average, while men
working full-time had paid off 44 percent of their
debt.
(C) In the United States, mothers are primary or
sole breadwinners in nearly 40 percent of families. Yet
the wage gap for mothers is larger than for women
overall. According to 2013 data, mothers employed full-
time, year round are paid 71 cents for every dollar
paid to fathers. It is worse for single mothers with
full-time, year-round jobs, who are paid just 58 cents
for every dollar paid to fathers.
(D) A conservative estimate is that women employed
in the United States lose a combined total of nearly
$500 billion every year due to the wage gap. These
women, their families, businesses and the economy
suffer as a result. Lost wages mean families have less
money to save for the future or to spend on basic goods
and services--spending that helps drive the economy.
(E) Statistical analysis shows that 62 percent of
the wage gap can be attributed to occupational and
industry differences; differences in experience and
education; and factors such as race, region and
unionization. That leaves 38 percent of the gap
unaccounted for, leading researchers to conclude that
factors such as discrimination and unconscious bias
continue to affect women's wages.
(5) The existence of such wage rate differentials--
(A) depresses wages and living standards for
employees necessary for their health and efficiency;
(B) prevents the maximum utilization of the
available labor resources;
(C) tends to cause labor disputes, thereby
burdening, affecting, and obstructing commerce;
(D) burdens commerce and the free flow of goods in
commerce;
(E) constitutes an unfair method of competition;
and
(F) contributes to poor living conditions, poor
nutrition, and fewer opportunities for families with
children under 18 where the mother is the sole or
primary breadwinner.
(6) Section 6(d) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938
prohibits discrimination in compensation for ``equal work'' on
the basis of sex.
(7) Artificial barriers to the elimination of
discrimination in compensation based upon sex, race, and
national origin continue to exist more than five decades after
the passage of section 6(d) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of
1938, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, and the Civil Rights Act of
1964 (42 U.S.C. 2000a et seq.). Elimination of such barriers
would have positive effects.
(A) Problems in the economy created by
discrimination through wage rate differentials would be
reduced. In 2012, the U.S. economy would have produced
additional income of $447.6 billion if women received
equal pay; this represents 2.9 percent of 2012 gross
domestic product.
(B) Fewer working women and people of color would
earn low wages, thereby reducing dependence on public
assistance. The total increase in women's earnings with
pay equity represents more than 14 times what the
Federal and State governments spent in fiscal year 2012
on Temporary Assistance to Needy Families.
(C) Working family members earning a fair rate of
pay would encourage stable families and reduce poverty.
The poverty rate for all working women would be cut in
half, falling to 3.9 percent from 8.1 percent. The very
high poverty rate for working single mothers would fall
by nearly half, from 28.7 percent to 15.0 percent, and
two-thirds would receive a pay increase.
SEC. 3. EQUAL PAY FOR EQUIVALENT JOBS.
(a) Amendment.--Section 6 (29 U.S.C. 206) is amended by adding at
the end the following:
``(h)(1)(A) Except as provided in subparagraph (B), no employer
having employees subject to any provision of this section shall
discriminate, within any establishment in which such employees are
employed, between employees on the basis of sex, race, or national
origin by paying wages to employees in such establishment in a job that
is dominated by employees of a particular sex, race, or national origin
at a rate less than the rate at which the employer pays wages to
employees in such establishment in another job that is dominated by
employees of the opposite sex or of a different race or national
origin, respectively, for work on equivalent jobs, nor shall such
employer between such employees discriminate on the basis of sex, race,
or national origin in any other terms, conditions, privileges, or
benefits of employment.
``(B) Nothing in subparagraph (A) shall prohibit the payment of
different wage rates to employees where such payment is made pursuant
to--
``(i) a seniority system;
``(ii) a merit system;
``(iii) a system that measures earnings by quantity or
quality of production; or
``(iv) a differential based on a bona fide factor other
than sex, race, or national origin, such as education,
training, or experience, except that this clause shall apply
only if--
``(I) the employer demonstrates that--
``(aa) such factor--
``(AA) is job-related with respect
to the position in question; or
``(BB) furthers a legitimate
business purpose, except that this item
shall not apply if the employee
demonstrates that an alternative
employment practice exists that would
serve the same business purpose without
producing such differential and that
the employer has refused to adopt such
alternative practice; and
``(bb) such factor was actually applied and
used reasonably in light of the asserted
justification; and
``(II) upon the employer succeeding under subclause
(I), the employee fails to demonstrate that the
differential produced by the reliance of the employer
on such factor is itself the result of discrimination
on the basis of sex, race, or national origin by the
employer.
``(C) The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission shall issue
guidelines specifying criteria for determining whether a job is
dominated by employees of a particular sex, race, or national origin
for purposes of subparagraph (B)(iv). Such guidelines shall not include
a list of such jobs.
``(D) An employer who is paying a wage rate differential in
violation of subparagraph (A) shall not, in order to comply with the
provisions of such subparagraph, reduce the wage rate of any employee.
``(2) No labor organization or its agents representing employees of
an employer having employees subject to any provision of this section
shall cause or attempt to cause such an employer to discriminate
against an employee in violation of paragraph (1)(A).
``(3) For purposes of administration and enforcement of this
subsection, any amounts owing to any employee that have been withheld
in violation of paragraph (1)(A) shall be deemed to be unpaid minimum
wages or unpaid overtime compensation under this section or section 7.
``(4) In this subsection:
``(A) The term `labor organization' means any organization
of any kind, or any agency or employee representation committee
or plan, in which employees participate and that exists for the
purpose, in whole or in part, of dealing with employers
concerning grievances, labor disputes, wages, rates of pay,
hours of employment, or conditions of work.
``(B) The term `equivalent jobs' means jobs that may be
dissimilar, but whose requirements are equivalent, when viewed
as a composite of skills, effort, responsibility, and working
conditions.''.
(b) Conforming Amendment.--Section 13(a) (29 U.S.C. 213(a)) is
amended in the matter before paragraph (1) by striking ``section 6(d)''
and inserting ``sections 6 (d) and (h)''.
SEC. 4. PROHIBITED ACTS.
Section 15(a) (29 U.S.C. 215(a)) is amended--

inserting a semicolon; and
(2) by adding after paragraph (5) the following:
``(6) to discriminate against any individual because such
individual has opposed any act or practice made unlawful by
section 6(h) or because such individual made a charge,
testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an
investigation, proceeding, or hearing to enforce section 6(h);
or
``(7) to discharge or in any other manner discriminate
against, coerce, intimidate, threaten, or interfere with any
employee or any other person because the employee inquired
about, disclosed, compared, or otherwise discussed the
employee's wages or the wages of any other employee, or because
the employee exercised, enjoyed, aided, or encouraged any other
person to exercise or enjoy any right granted or protected by
section 6(h).''.
SEC. 5. REMEDIES.
(a) Enhanced Penalties.--Section 16(b) (29 U.S.C. 216(b)) is
amended--

damages as may be appropriate, except that the United States
shall not be liable for punitive damages.'';
(2) in the sentence beginning ``An action to'', by
inserting ``any of'' after ``prescribed in'';
(3) in the sentence beginning ``No employees'', by striking
``No employees'' and inserting ``Except with respect to class

(4) in the sentence beginning ``The court in'', by striking

Employment Opportunity Commission may use the information and data for
statistical and research purposes, and compile and publish such
studies, analyses, reports, and surveys based on the information and
data as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission may consider
appropriate.
``(6) In order to carry out the purposes of this Act, the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission shall by regulation make reasonable

and regulations prescribing the form and content of reports required to
be submitted under paragraph (3) and such other reasonable rules and
regulations as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission may find

requirements. In exercising the authority of the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission under paragraph (3), the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission may prescribe by general rule simplified reports

following:
``(4) The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission shall conduct

H. R. 1599
To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act to require an employer providing
an employment opportunity to disclose the wage range for such
employment opportunity to employees and applicants for employment, and
for other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Norton introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act to require an employer providing
an employment opportunity to disclose the wage range for such
employment opportunity to employees and applicants for employment, and
for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Salary Transparency Act''.
SEC. 2. PROHIBITIONS RELATING TO WAGE DISCLOSURES.
(a) In General.--The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C.
201 et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 7 the following new
section:
``SEC. 8. REQUIREMENTS AND PROHIBITIONS RELATING TO WAGE DISCLOSURES.
``(a) In General.--It shall be an unlawful practice for an employer
to--
``(1) fail or refuse to disclose, in any public or internal
posting for an employment opportunity, the wage or wage range
for such employment opportunity;
``(2) in any case in which a public or internal posting for
an employment opportunity has not been made available to an
applicant for such employment opportunity, fail or refuse to
disclose to such applicant the wage or wage range for such
employment opportunity prior to discussing compensation with
the applicant and at any time upon the applicant's request;
``(3) fail or refuse to disclose to an employee the wage or
wage range for the employee's position upon hire and at least
annually thereafter and at any time upon the employee's
request; or
``(4) refuse to interview, hire, promote, or employ an
employee or applicant for employment, or in any other manner
retaliate against an employee or applicant for employment, for
exercising any rights under this section.
``(b) Definition.--In this section, the term `wage range', with
respect to an employment opportunity, means the range of wages, or
salaries and other forms of compensation, that the employer providing
such employment opportunity anticipates in good faith relying on in
setting the pay for such employment opportunity. Such term may include
reference to any applicable pay scale, previously determined wage range
for the position, the actual wage range for those currently holding
equivalent positions, or the budgeted amount for the position, as
applicable. For the purposes of subsection (a)(3), such term may
include reference to any applicable pay scale, previously determined
wage range for the position, or the wage range for incumbents in
equivalent positions, as applicable.''.
(b) Penalties.--Section 16 of such Act (29 U.S.C. 216) is amended
by adding at the end the following new subsection:
``(f)(1) Any person who violates the provisions of section 8
shall--
``(A) be subject to a civil penalty of $5,000 for a first
violation, increased by an additional $1,000 for each
subsequent violation, not to exceed $10,000; and
``(B) be liable to each employee or applicant for
employment who was the subject of the violation for statutory
damages between $1,000 and $10,000, or actual damages,
whichever is greater, plus reasonable attorneys' fees, and
shall be subject to such injunctive relief as may be
appropriate.
``(2) An action to recover the liability described in paragraph
(1)(B) may be maintained against any employer (including a public
agency) in any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction by any
one or more employees or applicants for employment for and on behalf
of--
``(A) the employees or applicants for employment; and
``(B) other employees or applicants for employment
similarly situated.''.

Ms. Norton introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to prohibit certain
practices by employers relating to restrictions on discussion of
employees' and prospective employees' salary and benefit history, and
for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Pay Equity for All Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. PROHIBITIONS RELATING TO PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYEES' SALARY AND
BENEFIT HISTORY.
(a) In General.--The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (29 U.S.C.
201 et seq.) is amended by inserting after section 7 the following new
section:
``SEC. 8. REQUIREMENTS AND PROHIBITIONS RELATING TO WAGE, SALARY, AND
BENEFIT HISTORY.
``(a) In General.--It shall be an unlawful practice for an employer
to--
``(1) rely on the wage history of a prospective employee in
considering the prospective employee for employment, including
requiring that a prospective employee's prior wages satisfy
minimum or maximum criteria as a condition of being considered
for employment;
``(2) rely on the wage history of a prospective employee in
determining the wages for such prospective employee, except
that an employer may rely on wage history if it is voluntarily
provided by a prospective employee, after the employer makes an
offer of employment with an offer of compensation to the
prospective employee, to support a wage higher than the wage
offered by the employer;
``(3) seek from a prospective employee or any current or
former employer the wage history of the prospective employee,
except that an employer may seek to confirm prior wage
information only after an offer of employment with compensation
has been made to the prospective employee and the prospective
employee responds to the offer by providing prior wage
information to support a wage higher than that offered by the
employer; or
``(4) discharge or in any other manner retaliate against
any employee or prospective employee because the employee or
prospective employee--
``(A) opposed any act or practice made unlawful by
this section; or
``(B) took an action for which discrimination is
forbidden under section 15(a)(3).
``(b) Definition.--In this section, the term `wage history' means
the wages paid to the prospective employee by the prospective
employee's current employer or previous employer.''.
(b) Penalties.--Section 16 of such Act (29 U.S.C. 216) is amended
by adding at the end the following new subsection:
``(f)(1) Any person who violates the provisions of section 8
shall--
``(A) be subject to a civil penalty of $5,000 for a first
offense, increased by an additional $1,000 for each subsequent
offense, not to exceed $10,000; and
``(B) be liable to each employee or prospective employee
who was the subject of the violation for special damages not to
exceed $10,000 plus attorneys' fees, and shall be subject to
such injunctive relief as may be appropriate.
``(2) An action to recover the liability described in paragraph
(1)(B) may be maintained against any employer (including a public
agency) in any Federal or State court of competent jurisdiction by any
one or more employees or prospective employees for and on behalf of--
``(A) the employees or prospective employees; and
``(B) other employees or prospective employees similarly
situated.''.

purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Rouzer (for himself and Mr. Graves of Louisiana) introduced the
following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Transportation
and Infrastructure
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To authorize the President to provide disaster assistance to States and
Indian Tribes under a major disaster recovery program, and for other
purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Natural Disaster Recovery Program
Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. NATURAL DISASTER RECOVERY PROGRAM.
The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act
(42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) is amended by adding at the end of title IV
the following:
``SEC. 431. NATURAL DISASTER RECOVERY PROGRAM.
``(a) Authority; Use.--The President may provide assistance under
this section to States and Indian Tribes for unmet need, including
necessary expenses for activities related to disaster relief,
resiliency, long-term recovery, restoration of infrastructure and
housing, mitigation, and economic revitalization after a major disaster
is declared under section 401.
``(b) Coordination of Disaster Benefits and Data With Other Federal
Agencies.--
``(1) In general.--The President shall coordinate with
other agencies to obtain data on recovery needs and unmet need,
including the Administrator of the Small Business
Administration and other agencies when necessary regarding
disaster benefits. Not later than 90 days after a major
disaster is declared, the President shall make publicly
available all data collected, possessed, or analyzed during the
course of a disaster recovery for which assistance is provided
under this section, including--
``(A) all data on damage caused by the disaster;
``(B) information on how any Federal assistance
provided in connection with the disaster is expended;
``(C) information regarding the effect of the
disaster on education, transportation capabilities and
dependence, housing needs, health care capacity, and
displacement of persons; and
``(D) the extent of the unmet need.
``(2) Protection of personally identifiable information.--
In carrying out this subsection, the President and the grantee
shall take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that
personally identifiable information regarding recipients of
assistance provided under this section is not made publicly
available by any agency with which information is shared
pursuant to this subsection.
``(c) Use of Funds.--
``(1) Administrative costs.--
``(A) In general.--A State or Indian Tribe
receiving a grant under this section may use not more
than 13 percent of the amount of grant funds received,
or within such other percentage as may be established
pursuant to subparagraph (B), for administrative costs,
including costs related to audits, reviews, oversight,
evaluation, and investigations.
``(B) Discretion to establish sliding scale.--The
President may establish a series of percentage
limitations on the amount of grant funds received that
may be used by a grantee for administrative costs, but
only if--
``(i) such percentage limitations are based
on the amount of grant funds received by a
grantee; and
``(ii) such series provides that the
percentage that may be used is lower for
grantees receiving a greater amount of grant
funds and such percentage that may be used is
higher for grantees receiving a lesser amount
of grant funds.
``(2) Capacity building.--From funds made available for use
under this section, the President shall provide necessary
technical assistance to grantees to ensure grantees are
compliant with Federal law, and capacity building and technical
assistance, including assistance regarding contracting and
procurement processes, including providing solicitation and
contractual templates that conform to Federal requirements for
use by grantees.
``(d) Allocation, Process, and Procedures; Coordination.--
``(1) Allocation.--
``(A) In general.--The President shall allocate
funds under this section proportionally to grantees
based on their level of unmet need as determined
pursuant to subsection (b).
``(B) Grantee use of funds.--Each grantee, not the
President, shall be responsible for determining how
funds provided under this section are prioritized and
spent and a grantee shall not be required to provide an
action or spending plan before or after funds are
allocated, except that the grantee shall use a portion
of these funds for cleaning and removing debris from
rivers, creeks, streams, and ditches.
``(C) Limitation.--Notwithstanding section 312, a
loan shall not be considered a duplication of benefits
or otherwise impact the level of unmet need under this
section.
``(2) Grantee processes and procedures.--
``(A) Initial grant funds.--Initially, grantees
shall be awarded 50 percent of their total allocation
under paragraph (1). After expenditure of such amount,
a grantee shall submit a report, detailing how such
grant funds were spent, to the Committees on
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the
Senate, the Committee on Transportation and
Infrastructure of the House of Representatives, and the
Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs
of the Senate. Such report shall include a
certification from the State Auditor that none of the
funds were wasted or used inappropriately.
``(B) Congressional approval.--
``(i) Approval.--Not later than 60 days
after receipt of the report under subparagraph
(A), Congress shall approve or disapprove the
report. If the report is approved, or if 60
days has lapsed and Congress has not commented
on the report, the remaining 50 percent of the
allocation under paragraph (1) shall be
released to the grantee.
``(ii) Disapproval.--If Congress
disapproves the report, the grantee shall work
with Congress to address any and all concerns
regarding how the initial 50 percent of the
grant money was expended. Once these concerns
are resolved, the remaining funds shall be
released to the grantee.
``(iii) Fraud or abuse.--If Congress
determines that a grantee committed fraud or
abuse, Congress shall require the President to
recover all funds provided to the grantee under
this section. Any amount recovered under this
clause shall be redistributed to other grantees
with approved reports pursuant to clause (i).
``(3) Requirements.--Each State and Indian Tribe that
receives funds under this section shall establish or adhere to
existing guidelines for procurement processes and procedures
and require that subgrantees--
``(A) provide for full and open competition and
require cost or price analysis;
``(B) specify methods of procurement and their
applicability, but not allow cost-plus-a-percentage-of
cost or percentage-of-construction-cost methods of
procurement;
``(C) include standards of conduct governing
employees engaged in the award or administration of
contracts; and
``(D) ensure that all purchase orders and contracts
include any clauses required by Federal statute,
Executive order, or implementing regulation.
``(e) Environmental Review.--Recipients of funds received under
this section that use funds to supplement funds provided under section
402, 403, 404, 406, 407, 408(c)(4), 428, or 502 may adopt, without
review or public comment, any environmental review, approval, or permit
performed by a Federal agency.
``(f) Best Practices.--The President shall identify best practices
for grantees on issues including developing action plans, establishing
financial controls, building grantee technical and administrative
capacity, procurement, and use of grant funds as local match for other
sources of Federal funding. Not later than 1 year after the date of
enactment of this section, the President shall publish a compilation of
such identified best practices and share with all relevant grantees to
facilitate a more efficient and effective disaster recovery process.
``(g) Natural Disaster Recovery Reserve Fund.--
``(1) In general.--There is established in the Treasury of
the United States an account to be known as the Natural
Disaster Recovery Reserve Fund (in this section referred to as
the `Fund').
``(2) Amounts.--The Fund shall consist of any amounts
appropriated to or deposited into the Fund, including amounts
deposited into the Fund pursuant to paragraph (4).
``(3) Use of funds.--Amounts in the Fund shall be
available, pursuant to a declaration of a major disaster, only
for providing technical assistance and capacity building in
connection with subsection (c)(4) for grantees that have been
allocated assistance under this section in connection with such
disaster to facilitate planning and increase capacity to
administer assistance under this section.
``(4) Unused amounts.--If any amounts made available for
assistance under this section to grantees remain unexpended on
the earlier of--
``(A) the date that the grantee of such amounts
notifies the President that the grantee has completed
all activities; or
``(B) except as provided in paragraph (5), the
expiration of the 6-year period beginning when the
President obligates such amounts to the grantee, the
President shall transfer such unexpended amounts to the
Secretary of the Treasury for deposit into the Fund,
except that the President may permit the grantee to
retain amounts needed to close out the grant.
``(5) Extension of period for use of funds.--The period
under paragraph (4)(B) may be extended by not more than 4 years
if, before the expiration of such 6-year period, the President
waives this requirement and submits a written justification for
such waiver to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of
Representatives and the Senate that specifies the period of
such extension.
``(h) Waiver Authority.--Until such time as the President issues
regulations to implement this section, the President may--
``(1) waive notice and comment rulemaking, if the President
determines the waiver is necessary to expeditiously implement
the provisions of this section; and
``(2) carry out the grant program under this section as a
pilot program.
``(i) Definitions.--For purposes of this section, the following
terms shall apply:
``(1) State auditor.--The term `State auditor' means the
individual selected by each State or the Chief Executive to
submit information pursuant to subsection (c)(3) and a
certification in accordance with subsection (d)(2)(A).
``(2) Unmet need.--The term `unmet need' means any
unresourced item, support, or assistance that has been assessed
and verified as necessary for a survivor to recover from a
major disaster, including food, clothing, shelter, first aid,
emotional and spiritual care, household items, home repair, or
rebuilding.''.

To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to provide Medicare

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Steube (for himself, Mr. Higgins of New York, Mr. Alford, Mr.
Larson of Connecticut, Mr. Moolenaar, Ms. Hageman, Ms. Strickland, Mr.
Bost, Mr. Johnson of South Dakota, Mr. Meuser, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Mr.

following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and Means, for a
period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for
consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the
committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to provide Medicare
coverage for all physicians' services furnished by doctors of
chiropractic within the scope of their license, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Chiropractic Medicare Coverage
Modernization Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS; STATEMENT OF PURPOSE.
(a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
(1) In 1972, coverage was established under the Medicare
program for beneficiaries to receive chiropractic care.
(2) Unfortunately, the antiquated statute restricts
beneficiaries to one service in a chiropractic clinic and
Medicare chiropractic coverage has not kept up with private
sector coverage and other Federal health delivery systems.
(3) Today, due to positive evidence-based outcomes and cost
effectiveness of the services provided by doctors of
chiropractic, private coverage for chiropractic services has
evolved and State licensure for chiropractors has advanced to
meet patient needs and health outcomes.
(4) This Act would bring Medicare chiropractic coverage
more in line with that provided with the Department of Veterans
Affairs, Department of Defense, the Federal Employee Health
Benefits Program, and private health insurance coverage.
(b) Purpose.--It is the purpose of this Act to expand recognition
and coverage of a doctor of chiropractic as a ``physician'' under the
Medicare program in connection with the performance of any function or
action, including current service of ``manual manipulation of the spine
to correct a subluxation'', as is legally authorized by the State in
which such doctor performs such function or action.
SEC. 3. PROVIDING MEDICARE COVERAGE FOR ALL PHYSICIANS' SERVICES
FURNISHED BY DOCTORS OF CHIROPRACTIC WITHIN THE SCOPE OF
THEIR LICENSE.
(a) In General.--Section 1861(r)(5) of the Social Security Act (42
U.S.C. 1395x(r)(5)) is amended by striking ``a chiropractor who is
licensed as such by the State (or in a State which does not license
chiropractors as such, is legally authorized to perform the services of
a chiropractor in the jurisdiction in which he performs such services),
and who meets uniform minimum standards promulgated by the Secretary,
but only for the purpose of sections 1861(s)(1) and 1861(s)(2)(A) and
only with respect to treatment by means of manual manipulation of the
spine (to correct a subluxation) which he is legally authorized to
perform by the State or jurisdiction in which such treatment is
provided'' and inserting ``a doctor of chiropractic who is licensed as
a doctor of chiropractic or a chiropractor by the State in which the
function or action is performed and whose license provides legal
authorization to perform such function or action in such State or in
the jurisdiction in which the function or action is performed''.
(b) Certain Coverage Limits.--Section 1833 of the Social Security
Act (42 U.S.C. 1395l) is amended by adding at the end the following new
subsection:
``(ee) Limitation on Payment of Services Provided by Certain
Doctors of Chiropractic.--Notwithstanding any other provision of this
part, in the case of services of a doctor of chiropractic described in
section 1861(r)(5), payment may only be made under this part for such
services if--
``(1) such services are furnished by a doctor of
chiropractic who is verified once, by a process designed by the
Secretary, as attending an educational documentation webinar,
or other similar electronic product, designed by the Secretary
or an updated modified version of such webinar, as designed by
the Secretary; or
``(2) such services are treatment by means of manual
manipulation of the spine to correct a subluxation.''.

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To amend title XIX of the Social Security Act to improve transparency
and prevent the use of abusive spread pricing and related practices in
the Medicaid program.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Drug Price Transparency in Medicaid
Act of 2023''.
SEC. 2. IMPROVING TRANSPARENCY AND PREVENTING THE USE OF ABUSIVE SPREAD
PRICING AND RELATED PRACTICES IN MEDICAID.
(a) Pass-Through Pricing Required.--
(1) In general.--Section 1927(e) of the Social Security Act
(42 U.S.C. 1396r-8(e)) is amended by adding at the end the
following:
``(6) Pass-through pricing required.--A contract between
the State and a pharmacy benefit manager (referred to in this
paragraph as a `PBM'), or a contract between the State and a
managed care entity or other specified entity (as such terms
are defined in section 1903(m)(9)(D)) that includes provisions
making the entity responsible for coverage of covered
outpatient drugs dispensed to individuals enrolled with the
entity, shall require that payment for such drugs and related
administrative services (as applicable), including payments
made by a PBM on behalf of the State or entity, is based on a
pass-through pricing model under which--
``(A) any payment made by the entity or the PBM (as
applicable) for such a drug--
``(i) is limited to--
``(I) ingredient cost; and
``(II) a professional dispensing
fee that is not less than the
professional dispensing fee that the
State plan or waiver would pay if the
plan or waiver was making the payment
directly;
``(ii) is passed through in its entirety by
the entity or PBM to the pharmacy or provider
that dispenses the drug; and
``(iii) is made in a manner that is
consistent with section 1902(a)(30)(A) and
sections 447.512, 447.514, and 447.518 of title
42, Code of Federal Regulations (or any
successor regulation) as if such requirements
applied directly to the entity or the PBM,
except that any payment by the entity or the
PBM (as applicable) for the ingredient cost of
a covered outpatient drug dispensed by
providers and pharmacies referenced in clause
(i) or (ii) of section 447.518(a)(1) of title
42, Code of Federal Regulations (or any
successor regulation) shall be the same as the
payment amount for the ingredient cost when
dispensed by providers and pharmacies not
referenced in such clauses, and in no case
shall payment for the ingredient cost of a
covered outpatient drug be based on the actual
acquisition cost of a drug dispensed by
providers and pharmacies referenced in such
clauses or take into account a drug's status as
a drug purchased at a discounted price by a
provider or pharmacy referenced in such
clauses;
``(B) payment to the entity or the PBM (as
applicable) for administrative services performed by
the entity or PBM is limited to a reasonable
administrative fee that covers the reasonable cost of
providing such services;
``(C) the entity or the PBM (as applicable) shall
make available to the State, and the Secretary upon
request, all costs and payments related to covered
outpatient drugs and accompanying administrative
services incurred, received, or made by the entity or
the PBM, including ingredient costs, professional
dispensing fees, administrative fees, post-sale and
post-invoice fees, discounts, or related adjustments
such as direct and indirect remuneration fees, and any
and all other remuneration; and
``(D) any form of spread pricing whereby any amount
charged or claimed by the entity or the PBM (as
applicable) is in excess of the amount paid to the
pharmacies on behalf of the entity, including any post-
sale or post-invoice fees, discounts, or related
adjustments such as direct and indirect remuneration
fees or assessments (after allowing for a reasonable
administrative fee as described in subparagraph (B)) is
not allowable for purposes of claiming Federal matching
payments under this title.''.
(2) Conforming amendment.--Section 1903(m)(2)(A)(xiii) of
such Act (42 U.S.C. 1396b(m)(2)(A)(xiii)) is amended--

requirements of section 1927(e)(6)''; and
(C) by moving the left margin 2 ems to the left.
(3) Effective date.--The amendments made by this subsection

(b) Ensuring Accurate Payments to Pharmacies Under Medicaid.--
(1) In general.--Section 1927(f) of the Social Security Act
(42 U.S.C. 1396r-8(f)) is amended--

end of paragraph (1)(A)(i) and all that precedes it
through ``(1)'' and inserting the following:
``(1) Determining pharmacy actual acquisition costs.--The
Secretary shall conduct a survey of retail community pharmacy
drug prices to determine the national average drug acquisition
cost as follows:
``(A) Use of vendor.--The Secretary may contract

pharmacies, the determination of retail survey
prices of the national average drug acquisition
cost for covered outpatient drugs based on a
monthly survey of such pharmacies; and'';
(B) by adding at the end of paragraph (1) the
following:
``(F) Survey reporting.--In order to meet the
requirement of section 1902(a)(54), a State shall
require that any retail community pharmacy in the State
that receives any payment, reimbursement,
administrative fee, discount, or rebate related to the
dispensing of covered outpatient drugs to individuals
receiving benefits under this title, regardless of
whether such payment, fee, discount, or rebate is
received from the State or a managed care entity
directly or from a pharmacy benefit manager or another
entity that has a contract with the State or a managed
care entity, shall respond to surveys of retail prices
conducted under this subsection.
``(G) Survey information.--Information on national
drug acquisition prices obtained under this paragraph
shall be made publicly available and shall include at
least the following:
``(i) The monthly response rate of the
survey including a list of pharmacies not in
compliance with subparagraph (F).
``(ii) The sampling frame and number of
pharmacies sampled monthly.
``(iii) Information on price concessions to
the pharmacy, including discounts, rebates, and
other price concessions, to the extent that
such information is available during the survey
period.
``(H) Report on specialty pharmacies.--
``(i) In general.--Not later than 1 year
after the effective date of this subparagraph,
the Secretary shall submit a report to Congress
examining specialty drug coverage and
reimbursement under this title.
``(ii) Content of report.--Such report
shall include a description of how State
Medicaid programs define specialty drugs and
specialty pharmacies, how much State Medicaid
programs pay for specialty drugs, how States
and managed care plans determine payment for
specialty drugs, the settings in which
specialty drugs are dispensed (such as retail
community pharmacies or specialty pharmacies),
to what extent acquisition costs for specialty
drugs are captured in the national average drug
acquisition cost survey or through another
process, examples of specialty drug dispensing
fees to support the services associated with
dispensing specialty drugs, and recommendations
as to whether specialty pharmacies should be
included in the survey of retail prices to
ensure national average drug acquisition costs
capture drugs sold at specialty pharmacies and
how such specialty pharmacies should be
defined.'';
(C) in paragraph (2)--
(i) in subparagraph (A), by inserting ``,
including payments rates under Medicaid managed
care plans,'' after ``under this title''; and
(ii) in subparagraph (B), by inserting

_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To facilitate the creation of designated shooting ranges on National
Forest System land and public land administered by the Bureau of Land
Management for the public to use for recreational target shooting, and
for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Range Access Act''.
SEC. 2. TARGET SHOOTING RANGES.
(a) Definition of Target Shooting Range.--In this section, the term
``target shooting range'' means a developed and managed area that is
authorized or operated by the Forest Service or the Bureau of Land
Management specifically for the purposeful discharge by the public of
legal firearms, firearms training, archery, or other associated
activities.
(b) Assessment; Identification of Target Shooting Range
Locations.--
(1) Assessment.--Not later than 1 year after the date of
enactment of this Act, the Secretary concerned shall make
available to the public a list that--
(A) identifies each National Forest and each Bureau
of Land Management district that has a target shooting
range that meets the requirements described in
paragraph (3)(B);
(B) identifies each National Forest and each Bureau
of Land Management district that does not have a target
shooting range that meets the requirements described in
paragraph (3)(B); and
(C) for each National Forest and each Bureau of
Land Management district identified under subparagraph
(B), provides a determination of whether applicable law
or the applicable land use plan prevents the
establishment of a target shooting range that meets the
requirements described in paragraph (3)(B).
(2) Identification of target shooting range locations.--
(A) In general.--The Secretary concerned shall
identify at least 1 suitable location for a target
shooting range that meets the requirements described in
paragraph (3)(B) within each National Forest and each
Bureau of Land Management district with respect to
which the Secretary concerned has determined under
paragraph (1)(C) that the establishment of a target
shooting range is not prevented by applicable law or
the applicable land use plan.
(B) Requirements.--The Secretaries, in consultation
with the entities described in subsection (d), shall,
for purposes of identifying a suitable location for a
target shooting range under subparagraph (A)--
(i) consider the proximity of areas
frequently used by recreational shooters;
(ii) ensure that the target shooting range
would not adversely impact a shooting range
operated or maintained by a non-Federal entity,
including a shooting range located on private
land; and
(iii) consider other nearby recreational
uses to minimize potential conflict.
(3) Establishment of new target shooting ranges.--
(A) In general.--Not later than 5 years after the
date of enactment of this Act, at 1 or more suitable
locations identified on each eligible National Forest
and each Bureau of Land Management district under
paragraph (2)(A), the Secretary concerned shall--
(i) subject to the availability of
appropriations, construct a target shooting
range that meets the requirements described in
subparagraph (B) or modify an existing target
shooting range to meet the requirements
described in subparagraph (B); or
(ii) enter into an agreement with an entity
described in subsection (d)(1), under which the
entity shall establish or maintain a target
shooting range that meets the requirements
described in subparagraph (B).
(B) Requirements.--A target shooting range
established under this paragraph--
(i)(I) shall be able to accommodate rifles,
pistols, and shotguns; and
(II) may accommodate archery;
(ii) shall include appropriate public
safety designs and features, including--
(I) significantly modified
landscapes, including berms, buffer
distances, or other public safety
designs or features;
(II) a designated firing line; and
(III) benches;
(iii) may include--
(I) shade structures;
(II) trash containers;
(III) restrooms; and
(IV) any other features that the
Secretary concerned determines to be
necessary; and
(iv) may not require a user to pay a fee to
use the target shooting range.
(C) Recreation and public purposes act.--For
purposes of subparagraph (A), the Secretary concerned
may consider a target shooting range that is located on
land transferred pursuant to the Act of June 14, 1926
(commonly known as the ``Recreation and Public Purposes
Act'') (44 Stat. 741, chapter 578; 43 U.S.C. 869 et
seq.), as a target shooting range that meets the
requirements described in subparagraph (B).
(c) Restrictions.--
(1) Management.--The management of a target shooting range
shall be subject to such conditions as the Secretary concerned
determines are necessary for the safe, responsible use of--
(A) the target shooting range; and
(B) the adjacent land and resources.
(2) Closures.--Except in emergency situations, the
Secretary concerned shall seek to ensure that a target shooting
range that meets the requirements described in subsection
(b)(3)(B), or an equivalent shooting range adjacent to a
National Forest or Bureau of Land Management district, is
available to the public prior to closing Federal recreational
lands and waters administered by the Chief of the Forest
Service or the Director of the Bureau of Land Management to
recreational shooting, in accordance with section 4103 of the
John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation
Act (16 U.S.C. 7913).
(d) Consultations.--
(1) In general.--In carrying out this section, the
Secretaries shall consult, as applicable, with--
(A) local and Tribal governments;
(B) nonprofit or nongovernmental organizations,
including organizations that are signatories to the
memorandum of understanding entitled ``Federal Lands
Hunting, Fishing, and Shooting Sports Roundtable
Memorandum of Understanding'' and signed by the Forest
Service and the Bureau of Land Management on August 17,
2006;
(C) State fish and wildlife agencies;
(D) shooting clubs;
(E) Federal advisory councils relating to hunting
and shooting sports;
(F) individuals or entities with authorized leases
or permits in an area under consideration for a target
shooting range;
(G) State and local offices of outdoor recreation;
(H) State and local public safety agencies; and
(I) the public.
(2) Partnerships.--The Secretaries may--
(A) coordinate with an entity described in
paragraph (1) to assist with the construction,
modification, operation, or maintenance of a target
shooting range; and
(B) explore opportunities to leverage funding to
maximize non-Federal investment in the construction,
modification, operation, or maintenance of a target
shooting range.
(e) Annual Reports.--Not later than 1 year after the date of
enactment of this Act and annually thereafter through fiscal year 2033,
the Secretaries shall submit to the Committee on Energy and Natural
Resources of the Senate and the Committee on Natural Resources of the
House of Representatives a report describing the progress made with
respect to the implementation of this section.
(f) Savings Clause.--Nothing in this section affects the authority
of the Secretary concerned to administer a target shooting range that
is in addition to the target shooting ranges that meet the requirements
described in subsection (b)(3)(B) on Federal recreational lands and
waters administered by the Secretary concerned.

1st Session
H. R. 1615
To prohibit the use of Federal funds to ban gas stoves.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 17, 2023
Mr. Armstrong introduced the following bill; which was referred to the
Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
A BILL
To prohibit the use of Federal funds to ban gas stoves.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the ``Gas Stove Protection and Freedom
Act''.
SEC. 2. DEFINITIONS.
In this Act:
(1) Commission.--The term ``Commission'' means the Consumer
Product Safety Commission.
(2) Gas stove.--The term ``gas stove'' means any gas range,
gas stove, or household cooking gas appliance that meets the
standard set forth in American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) Z21.1/ CSA Z21.1 or any successor standard.
(3) Substantially increase the average price of gas
stoves.--The term ``substantially increase the average price of
gas stoves'' means that the average price of a gas stove,
annualized over its expected life, would likely be
substantially higher than the average spending by United States
homeowners on cooking stoves and ovens based on the most recent
data for consumer expenditures reported by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics.
SEC. 3. PROHIBITION ON CPSC BANNING GAS STOVES.
No Federal funds may be used by the Commission to regulate a gas
stove as a banned hazardous product under section 8 of the Consumer
Product Safety Act (15 U.S.C. 2057) or to impose or enforce any
consumer product safety standard or rule on gas stoves under section 7
or 9 of such Act (15 U.S.C. 2056 or 2058) that would otherwise result
in a prohibition on the use or sale of gas stoves in the United States
or would otherwise substantially increase the average price of gas
stoves in the United States.
