This bill would require most employers across the country to offer paid sick time to their workers. Employees could earn up to 56 hours of paid time off each year for personal or family health needs, or issues like domestic violence. Right now, paid sick leave depends on your employer or state laws.

This bill would stop the federal government from giving contracts to companies that have moved their legal headquarters to another country but still do most of their business in the U.S. These companies, often called "inverted domestic corporations," would no longer be eligible for government work.

This bill would let employees of businesses with 15 or more workers ask their bosses for changes to their work schedules without fear of punishment. It would also give certain workers, like those in retail or hospitality, more predictable hours and extra pay for last-minute changes or split shifts. Employees of businesses with 15 or more workers would also have the right to decline shifts that start too soon after their last one.

This bill would create a new Federal Food Administration (FFA) under the Department of Health and Human Services. This agency would take over all food safety and inspection work from the FDA. It would also start a new program to inspect food facilities, with regular checks for high-risk sites and infant formula makers.

This bill would ensure people at higher risk for breast cancer, including those with dense breast tissue, can get extra screenings without out-of-pocket costs. Doctors can also recommend these free screenings for other reasons, like age or family history. This applies to most health plans, including private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, and VA health care, starting January 1, 2026.

This bill would temporarily fund most federal government operations until October 31, 2025, preventing a shutdown. It would also extend many health, veteran, and other federal programs for a short period. Crucially, it would make permanent the enhanced tax credits that help individuals and families afford health insurance plans.

This bill would create a national paid family and medical leave program, run by the Social Security Administration. Eligible workers could get paid time off for their own serious health issues or to care for a wide range of family members. They could also use it for reasons related to violence. This changes the current situation where there is no federal paid leave program.
