119th U.S. Congress Passes 5 Bills Before Christmas Vacation · Prestons Super Show

• 0:00
  Here we are with five bills the 119th U.S.
• 0:05
  Congress has passed before they head off for the Christmas
• 0:09
  vacation. First up we have the 1776
• 0:14
  Warrior Dividend Check announced by President Trump.
• 0:18
  To clear up the confusion. This is a one time tax free
• 0:23
  bonus payment of $1776 thanks to the one big beautiful bill for
• 0:31
  active duty service members. Check the finer details if you
• 0:36
  are in the Armed Services to see if you qualify.
• 0:40
  Next up, we have the good old Speed Act, HR 4776, Unleashing
• 0:48
  Energy Production in America. This is a clerical bill that
• 0:53
  will streamline the environmental review process by
• 0:57
  shortening the challenge window for appeals to 150 days.
• 1:03
  This bill stops the courts from issuing their own remedies in
• 1:07
  these cases and forces them to show a grand amount of deference
• 1:13
  to agency judgments. This is a good bill since it's
• 1:17
  removing roadblocks in the way of places becoming economic
• 1:22
  hubs. On to the Mining Regulatory
• 1:26
  Clarity Act, otherwise known as HR 1366.
• 1:33
  This bill is mostly clerical, but will have real world
• 1:36
  implications every so often. It's been sitting in Congress
• 1:41
  since February of this year. That should tell you exactly how
• 1:46
  unimportant it truly is. How about the Real Clarity Act
• 1:51
  for cryptocurrency? Or banning geoengineering of the
• 1:56
  skies? Those are worthwhile bills.
• 2:00
  This is about defining proper terms and it all points back to
• 2:04
  paperwork and Excel sheets. Each mill site is capped at 5
• 2:09
  acres and clears the way for more building on public lands.
• 2:15
  Next we have the Patent Livestock Protection Act,
• 2:19
  otherwise known as House Resolution 845.
• 2:24
  This ultimately will delist the Gray wolf from the Endangered
• 2:29
  and Threatened Wildlife list after a final review.
• 2:33
  Last but not least, we have the Do No Harm and Medicaid Act,
• 2:38
  otherwise known as House Resolution 498.
• 2:43
  This bill officially prevents puberty blockers and gender
• 2:47
  transition surgeries for minors from being funded with public
• 2:51
  tax dollars on Medicaid. A huge W for the Trump
• 2:56
  administration and America.
