To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 15422 NY 104 in Martville, New York, as the "Sergeant Staret J. Engleston Memorial Post Office Building".
# Summary of HR 7410 **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would rename a U.S. Postal Service facility in Martville, New York to honor Sergeant Staret J. Engleston. If passed, the post office building at 15422 NY 104 would officially be called the "Sergeant Staret J. Engleston Memorial Post Office Building." The bill is a memorial designation with no budget impact—it simply changes the name of the existing building to recognize Engleston. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill primarily affects the local Martville community and anyone using that postal facility. It was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY-24) in the 119th Congress. Currently, the bill remains in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House or Senate. Memorial post office designations are relatively common legislative actions used to honor individuals with significant connections to their communities.
To amend titles XVIII and XIX of the Social Security Act to require skilled nursing facilities, nursing facilities, intermediate care facilities for the intellectually disabled, and inpatient rehabilitation facilities to permit essential caregivers access during any period in which regular visitation is restricted.
# Summary of HR 6766 **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would require certain long-term care and rehabilitation facilities—including nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities, and rehabilitation centers—to allow "essential caregivers" to visit patients even when the facility has restricted regular visitation. The bill applies to facilities that receive Medicare or Medicaid funding. An essential caregiver would presumably be a family member or designated person who provides important support to the patient. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** The bill would directly impact nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers, and their patients and families. It would limit a facility's ability to impose blanket visitation restrictions during public health emergencies, disease outbreaks, or other situations where they might normally close to visitors. The intent appears to be ensuring that patients maintain meaningful contact with family members and caregivers even during periods of restricted access. **Current Status** HR 6766 is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on by the full House. The bill was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) in the 119th Congress. Since it remains in committee, it has not advanced to a floor vote or been sent to the Senate.
To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 80 Prospect Street in Avon, New York, as the "Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz Memorial Post Office Building".
# Summary of HR 323 **What the Bill Does** This bill would rename a U.S. Postal Service building located in Avon, New York, to honor Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz. The building at 80 Prospect Street would be officially designated as the "Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz Memorial Post Office Building." This is a commemorative measure that doesn't change how the post office operates—it simply gives the facility an official memorial name. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill primarily affects the Avon, New York community and honors an individual named Officer Mazurkiewicz. The bill has already passed the House of Representatives and is now awaiting action in the Senate. This type of legislation is common in Congress and is typically non-controversial, as it involves naming government buildings after individuals being honored for their service or contributions.

FORKS Made in America Permanency Act of 2025
# FORKS Made in America Permanency Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill would make permanent a "Made in America" requirement for forks and related utensils used in federal programs. Currently, federal agencies must prioritize purchasing American-made forks under existing procurement rules, but these requirements may be temporary or subject to change. This bill would lock in that preference as permanent law, ensuring long-term commitments to domestic fork manufacturing. **Who It Affects:** The bill primarily affects federal agencies that purchase utensils (such as the Department of Defense, schools, prisons, and other government facilities), American fork manufacturers and workers, and potentially federal contractors who supply these items to government programs. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee in the House of Representatives, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full chamber. It was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) in the 119th Congress.

# Constitutional Citizenship Clarification Act of 2025 (HR 4741) - Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill aims to clarify the legal definition of citizenship under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. While the bill's specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, bills with this title typically address how automatic citizenship is granted to children born in the U.S., particularly focusing on whether children born to non-citizen parents automatically qualify for citizenship at birth. **Who It Affects:** The legislation would potentially impact millions of people, including newborns, immigrants, and families with mixed citizenship status. It could also affect federal agencies responsible for issuing birth certificates and citizenship documents. **Current Status:** As of now, HR 4741 is in committee, meaning it has been assigned to the appropriate congressional committee for review and debate but has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives. The bill was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) in the 119th Congress. *Note: For complete details on specific provisions and potential impacts, you would need to review the full bill text, as the summary information available here is limited.*
To amend title 40, United States Code, to include Ontario County in the region covered by the Northern Border Regional Commission, and for other purposes.
# HR 4578 Summary **What the Bill Does:** This bill would expand the Northern Border Regional Commission's coverage area to include Ontario County, New York. The Northern Border Regional Commission is a federal program that provides funding and economic development support to counties in the northern border regions of the United States. Currently, Ontario County is not included in this program's service area, so this change would make the county eligible for federal grants and development assistance. **Who It Affects:** Ontario County residents and local governments would be the primary beneficiaries, gaining access to federal economic development funds. The bill would also affect the Northern Border Regional Commission's operations and budget, as it would expand the geographic area the agency covers. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been voted on by the full House of Representatives. No further action has been taken at this time.
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to prohibit voting in Federal, State, or local elections by individuals who are not citizens of the United States.
# Summary of HJRES 107 **What the Bill Would Do** This proposed constitutional amendment would explicitly prohibit non-citizens from voting in any U.S. elections—federal, state, or local. Currently, federal law already bars non-citizens from voting in federal elections, and most states prohibit non-citizen voting in state and local elections as well. This amendment would constitutionally enshrine that prohibition across all election levels. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The amendment would apply to non-citizens, including permanent residents (green card holders) and others living in the U.S. who are not American citizens. For a constitutional amendment to become law, it must pass both the House and Senate with a two-thirds majority in each chamber, then be ratified by at least 38 states. Currently, HJRES 107 is in committee and has not advanced further in the legislative process. The bill was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY) in the 119th Congress.

It was sponsored by Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY). For the most current status and specific provisions of the bill, you can check Congress.gov, which provides complete legislative text and tracking information.

Protecting Gun Owners in Bankruptcy Act
# Protecting Gun Owners in Bankruptcy Act (HR 4064) **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would protect firearm ownership for people going through bankruptcy proceedings. Currently, when someone files for bankruptcy, their assets—including firearms—can potentially be seized and sold to pay off debts. This bill would exempt firearms from being liquidated during bankruptcy cases, allowing gun owners to keep their weapons even while repaying creditors. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** The bill directly affects individuals filing for personal bankruptcy who own guns. It would establish a legal exemption preventing bankruptcy courts from requiring the sale of firearms to settle debts. The specific scope of protection (such as how many guns would be protected or any value limits) is not detailed in the available summary. **Current Status** As of now, HR 4064 is in committee, meaning it has been introduced but hasn't yet advanced to a full vote by the House of Representatives.

It would prevent these programs from covering medical treatments related to gender transition, including surgical and pharmaceutical interventions. **Who It Affects** This legislation would primarily impact Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, military veterans, federal employees, and other individuals who receive healthcare through federal programs. It would affect both adults and minors who rely on these programs for healthcare coverage. **Current Status** The bill remains in committee as of now, meaning it has not yet advanced to a floor vote in the House of Representatives.

Promoting Submetering for Affordable Housing Act
# Promoting Submetering for Affordable Housing Act (HR 3126) ## What the Bill Does This bill would promote the use of "submetering" in affordable housing units. Submetering is a system where individual apartments or units have their own utility meters rather than sharing one meter for an entire building. This allows tenants to be billed directly for their own water, electricity, or gas usage instead than paying a flat fee or having costs divided among all residents. ## Who It Affects The bill primarily affects affordable housing residents and landlords/property managers of low-income housing. It could also influence utility companies and local housing regulations. ## Current Status The bill is currently in committee (as of the 119th Congress), meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. No specific provisions of the bill have been made publicly available in standard summaries, so the exact mechanisms for "promoting" submetering—whether through incentives, regulatory changes, or other means—are not detailed here. The general rationale behind such bills is typically that submetering incentivizes individual conservation (since tenants directly pay for their usage) while potentially reducing overall costs in efficient buildings, though critics sometimes raise concerns about installation costs and tenant protections.
Law Enforcement Solidarity Act
# Law Enforcement Solidarity Act (HR 3081) Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** The Law Enforcement Solidarity Act is a bill introduced in the House of Representatives that aims to support law enforcement officers, though the specific provisions are not detailed in the available information.

It could also impact communities and individuals who interact with law enforcement, depending on the specific provisions included. **Current Status:** As of now, HR 3081 remains in committee, meaning it has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House. The bill was introduced by Representative Claudia Tenney (R-NY). Without access to the detailed text of the bill, a complete summary of key provisions cannot be provided. To learn more about what this bill specifically proposes, you can view the full text on Congress.gov.
Countering Hate Against Israel by Federal Contractors Act
# Countering Hate Against Israel by Federal Contractors Act (HR 3050) **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would require companies that contract with the federal government to adopt policies prohibiting antisemitism and anti-Israel discrimination. Specifically, it would make adherence to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism a condition for federal contractors. The IHRA definition includes certain statements about Israel that some argue constitute antisemitism, while critics contend it can restrict legitimate criticism of Israeli government policies. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** The bill would directly impact federal contractors—companies doing business with the U.S. government—by requiring them to implement anti-discrimination policies aligned with the IHRA definition. This could affect hiring practices, workplace conduct policies, and vendor standards across major industries. The bill represents an effort to combat what sponsors view as discriminatory treatment of Jewish employees and pro-Israel perspectives in the federal contracting workforce. **Current Status** As of now, HR 3050 remains in committee and has not advanced to a full House vote. The bill was introduced in the 119th Congress but has not yet been scheduled for further action.
