Democrats0-45Republicans49-0Independents0-2Official title: Disapproving the action of the District of Columbia Council in approving the D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025.
What this does
Congress overturns a District of Columbia tax measure. The resolution disapproves the D.C. Income and Franchise Tax Conformity and Revision Temporary Amendment Act of 2025 (D.C. Act 26-217), which the Council of the District of Columbia enacted on December 20, 2025 and transmitted to Congress on December 30, 2025 under the District of Columbia Home Rule Act. Under the Home Rule Act's review process, this disapproval blocks the D.C. Act from taking effect.
Single subject. The entire resolution is one disapproval of one named D.C. Council act, with no other provisions attached.

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026
Senate vote · 71-29
Democrats22-23Republicans48-5Independents1-1What this does
The act funds much of the federal government for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, packaging separate appropriations bills into one measure. Division A is the full Department of Defense budget, including $54,538,366,000 for Army military personnel and $58,249,178,000 for Army operation and maintenance. Division B funds the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education. Division D funds Transportation and Housing and Urban Development. Division E funds the Treasury, the Executive Office of the President, the Judiciary, the District of Columbia, and independent agencies. Division F funds the Department of State and foreign operations. Beyond the spending, the act carries policy divisions: Division G bars any funds from reaching the United Nations Relief and Works Agency; Division H treats the earlier continuing resolution as covering the appropriations lapse that began on or about January 31, 2026, and ratifies obligations incurred during it; Division I extends expiring authorizations, including the National Flood Insurance Program through September 30, 2026; and Division J extends a set of Medicaid and Medicare provisions, including telehealth flexibilities and the acute hospital care at home waiver. Section 6 pays $174,000 to Jill Marie LaMalfa, widow of Representative Douglas L. LaMalfa.
One vote carried nine separate divisions. A yes on this measure was a yes on the entire Defense budget, the Labor-HHS-Education budget, the Transportation-HUD budget, the Financial Services and General Government budget, and the State and foreign operations budget at once, plus a continuing-appropriations division, a division of expiring-authorization extenders (the flood insurance program, grain standards, the CFTC whistleblower program), and a division of Medicare and Medicaid extenders. It also carries a $174,000 payment to a deceased member's widow and a prohibition on funding a United Nations agency. The lettering skips Division C.

What this does
The Act provides full-year fiscal 2026 appropriations across three divisions.

An explanatory statement is given the effect of a conference report for allocating the funds within each division.
Three divisions under one short title. A single yes funded the Commerce-Justice-Science bill, the Energy and Water Development bill, and the Interior and Environment bill together. Any member wanting one of the three had to take all three.

Overturning the HHS Administrative Procedure Act Policy
Senate vote · 50-50
Democrats45-0Republicans3-50Independents2-0Official title: A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Office of the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services relating to "Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act".
What this does
This joint resolution would have overturned a Department of Health and Human Services rule titled Policy on Adhering to the Text of the Administrative Procedure Act, published on March 3, 2025. Using the Congressional Review Act, it states that Congress disapproves the rule and that the rule shall have no force or effect. The resolution rests on a Government Accountability Office letter of opinion, dated August 27, 2025 and printed in the Congressional Record on September 3, 2025, concluding that the policy statement is a rule under that Act. The Senate rejected it on a 50 to 50 tie, so the rule was not overturned.
One subject. The resolution disapproves a single named rule and carries no other provisions.

FY2026 National Defense Authorization Act
Senate vote · 77-20
Democrats27-17Republicans49-2Independents1-1Official title: National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026
What this does
This is the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, the annual law that sets defense policy and authorizes military spending. Organized into eight divisions, it authorizes appropriations for procurement, operations, military construction, Department of Energy national security programs, and the Coast Guard, and it sets personnel levels and pay policy. It also folds in a State Department authorization and an intelligence authorization for the year. Its final division, "Other Matters," carries a long list of provisions with little or no connection to defense, including an extension of the Defense Production Act, new securities-disclosure rules for foreign company insiders, a reauthorization of a child-exploitation prevention program, and a new regime restricting certain U.S. investments abroad. That same division repeals both authorizations for the use of military force in Iraq and repeals the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act of 2019.
This is a genuine bundle. The core seven divisions do the expected defense work, but Division H ("Other Matters") attaches many provisions with no defense nexus. Among them: a one-year extension of the Defense Production Act (Sec. 8101), a securities law change requiring insider disclosures by directors and officers of foreign private issuers (Sec. 8103), a reauthorization of the PROTECT Our Children Act of 2008 (Sec. 8202), an extension of Supreme Court Police protective authority to retired and former justices and their families (Sec. 8201), standalone Taiwan, fentanyl, and Western Balkans titles, a South Pacific tuna treaty implementation, a new outbound-investment screening regime (Title LXXXV, Sec. 8521), the repeal of both Iraq use-of-force authorizations (Sec. 8370), and the repeal of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act (Sec. 8369). A reader tracking any one of these riders would not find it under a defense bill's title.

What this does
This resolution overturns the Bureau of Land Management's Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Leasing Program Record of Decision, issued December 9, 2024. Using the Congressional Review Act, it declares the record of decision has no force or effect, undoing BLM's chosen framework for oil and gas leasing on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge coastal plain. The resolution rests on a Government Accountability Office opinion, dated August 25, 2025 and printed in the Congressional Record, that treats the record of decision as a rule subject to the Act.
Single subject. The resolution nullifies one named BLM leasing decision and contains nothing else.

Democrats0-41Republicans51-0Independents0-2Official title: Providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management relating to Buffalo Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment.
What this does
This resolution overturns a Bureau of Land Management rule under the Congressional Review Act, so the rule has no force or effect. The targeted rule is the Buffalo Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment, issued November 20, 2024, which governs land-use management for that BLM field office in Wyoming. The resolution cites a September 18, 2025 Government Accountability Office opinion concluding the record of decision qualifies as a rule subject to the Congressional Review Act. Nullifying the plan amendment leaves the prior management plan in place; under the Act, BLM may not reissue a substantially similar rule without new authorization from Congress.
Single subject. A one-sentence Congressional Review Act disapproval of one BLM rule, with no other provisions.

Senate vote · 60-40
Democrats7-38Republicans52-1Independents1-1Official title: H.R. 5371, Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026
What this does
Division A funds most of the federal government at fiscal year 2025 rates and conditions through January 30, 2026, treats that coverage as beginning October 1, 2025, and provides that employees be paid, including back pay, ending a lapse in appropriations. Section 120 bars any federally funded reduction in force through January 30, 2026, and voids any reduction in force an executive agency took between October 1, 2025, and enactment, reinstating affected employees as of September 30, 2025, with back pay. Divisions B, C, and D provide full-year fiscal 2026 appropriations for Agriculture, Rural Development, the FDA, and related agencies; the Legislative Branch; and Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and related agencies. Divisions E and G extend agricultural programs and Department of Veterans Affairs authorities. Division F extends funding for community health centers, the National Health Service Corps, and teaching health centers that run graduate medical education programs through January 30, 2026, and carries Medicare, Medicaid, human-services, FDA over-the-counter drug user fee, and No Surprises Act provisions. Division H keeps the budgetary effects of the extender divisions off the statutory PAYGO scorecards.
Eight divisions under one short title. A single yes carried a stopgap continuing resolution that reopened the government, three full-year appropriations bills (Agriculture-FDA, Legislative Branch, and Military Construction-VA), agricultural and health and veterans extenders, and a PAYGO exemption. The reduction-in-force reversal in Section 120 and the full-year Agriculture, Legislative Branch, and MilCon-VA budgets all ride on the same vote as the short-term funding patch.

What this does
This joint resolution ends the national emergency that the President declared on April 2, 2025, in Executive Order 14257, which the resolution describes as the emergency declared to impose global tariffs. It directs that the emergency be terminated under section 202 of the National Emergencies Act. The termination would take effect on the date the resolution becomes law. Its single operative clause does nothing beyond ending that one declared emergency.
The resolution has one operative clause that terminates a single national emergency, so it stands on its own.

What this does
This joint resolution ends the national emergency that the President declared on February 1, 2025, in Executive Order 14193. That emergency served as the legal basis for placing duties on goods imported from Canada. Acting under section 202 of the National Emergencies Act, Congress votes to terminate the emergency, which withdraws the authority behind those tariffs. The resolution contains a single operative clause and addresses only this one emergency declaration.

It acts under section 202 of the National Emergencies Act, the provision that lets Congress end a declared emergency. Ending the emergency removes the legal basis for the tariffs tied to it.
Every word of the resolution serves the one act it names: ending the July 30, 2025 emergency behind the Brazil tariffs. There is no second subject and no rider.

Senate vote · 77-20
Democrats26-18Republicans50-1Independents1-1What this does
This is the Senate version of the annual defense bill, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026. It authorizes spending and sets policy for the Department of Defense, military construction, and Department of Energy national security programs for fiscal year 2026. The bill is organized into ten divisions, and it folds several separate acts into the same measure. Bundled in are the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2025, a Department of State authorization, and the ROAD to Housing Act, which addresses federal housing programs. A single yes vote on this bill carried the defense authorization and all of the attached acts together.
One vote on this bill decided far more than defense policy. Section 2 splits the Act into ten divisions, and four of them are stand-alone laws with their own short titles: the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2025, the Department of State Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, and the ROAD to Housing Act. A member could not accept the defense authorization and reject the housing or intelligence provisions separately, because they moved as one bill.

Senate vote · 47-53
Democrats45-0Republicans0-53Independents2-0What this does
This bill is the Senate's alternative stopgap funding measure, and it has two divisions. Division A would have continued fiscal year 2025 appropriations at fiscal year 2025 rates through October 31, 2025, and added money for House, Senate, and Capitol Police security. Division B is a package of extensions and other matters: one month of funding for community health centers, the National Health Service Corps, teaching health centers, special diabetes programs, Medicare, Medicaid and human services authorities, and a long list of veterans, agriculture, transportation, cybersecurity and development authorities. Division B also changes health law permanently. It repeals subtitle B of title VII of the 2025 reconciliation act and applies the law as if that subtitle had never been enacted, and it strikes the 400 percent of poverty ceiling on eligibility for the premium tax credit and rewrites the credit's applicable percentage table for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025. The extension list is longer than a summary can lay out in full; the section by section detail is in the bill text. The Senate rejected it 47 to 53 on reconsideration, so none of it took effect.
A single yes on this bill would have carried more than a stopgap. Division A is a one month continuing resolution. Division B travels with it, and Division B is where the permanent law changes sit: the repeal of subtitle B of title VII of the 2025 reconciliation act, and the rewrite of the premium tax credit that strikes the 400 percent of poverty eligibility ceiling. A senator could not vote to keep the government funded under this bill without also voting for those changes.

Senate vote · 87-9
Democrats37-6Republicans49-2Independents1-1Official title: Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, and Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2026
What this does
The bill provides fiscal year 2026 appropriations across three divisions. Division A funds military construction and the Department of Veterans Affairs: Veterans Compensation and Pensions at $241,947,603,000, Medical Services at $59,858,000,000, Medical Community Care at $38,700,000,000, and the Cost of War Toxic Exposures Fund at $52,676,000,000; it rescinds $15,889,000,000 of fiscal year 2025 Medical Services funds and $610,000,000 of Medical Support and Compliance funds previously provided under the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2025. Division A also bars funds from closing or realigning Naval Station Guantanamo Bay and from building or expanding facilities in the United States to house Guantanamo detainees. Division B funds Agriculture, Rural Development, the Food and Drug Administration, and related agencies, including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program at $118,139,341,000 with a $3,000,000,000 reserve and the WIC program at $8,200,000,000. Division C funds the legislative branch, including Capitol Police salaries of $653,422,000. The text is a Senate substitute that struck everything after the enacting clause of the House-passed bill.
Three appropriations bills moved as one. A single yes vote was a vote to fund military construction and the Department of Veterans Affairs (division A), Agriculture, Rural Development, and the Food and Drug Administration (division B), and the legislative branch (division C). Section 2 states that each division stands as its own Act, and section 3 ties each to its own Senate report. The version is an Engrossed Amendment Senate: the Senate struck all after the enacting clause of the House bill and inserted its own text, so this is the Senate's substitute, though the three-subject title still matches the content. Veterans' health care could not be funded without also funding food stamps and the operations of Congress.

Rescissions Act of 2025
Senate vote · 51-48
Democrats0-44Republicans51-2Independents0-2What this does
This law cancels budget authority the President proposed to rescind in a June 3, 2025 special message, using the rescission process of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act. The rescissions take effect immediately on enactment. Most of the cancelled money is foreign aid: unobligated balances for contributions to international organizations and international peacekeeping, global health programs, migration and refugee assistance, development and economic support funds, disaster assistance, and multilateral funds including the Clean Technology Fund. Individual cancellations include $800,000,000 from Migration and Refugee Assistance, $2,500,000,000 from Development Assistance, $1,650,000,000 from the Economic Support Fund, and $500,000,000 from Global Health Programs. Several rescissions carry provisos protecting specified programs from the cut, including HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, nutrition, and maternal and child health under Global Health Programs; assistance to Jordan and Egypt and the Countering PRC Influence Fund under the Economic Support Fund; and U.S. commodity-based food aid such as Food for Peace under Development and Disaster Assistance. The law also rescinds all amounts for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting for fiscal years 2026 and 2027.
Single subject in form (rescissions of budget authority) but it reaches across many separate accounts. It is one instrument cancelling funds from foreign-aid programs and public broadcasting alike, so the effects span unrelated policy areas even though the legal action is uniform.
