What’s happening with PAST Act of 2025?

The PAST Act of 2025, known as H.R. 1684, has remained in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce since February 26, 2025. The committee members must choose to hold a vote on the bill to allow it to move forward, but most bills fail because they never receive a committee vote. This lack of action has continued for 16 months, which is a common outcome for legislation in the House.
