What’s happening with COLAs Don’t Count Act of 2026?
The COLAs Don't Count Act of 2026 is active under H.R. 6986 and S. 3603, but both bills have remained in committee since May 19, 2026, and January 7, 2026. Members of the House and Senate agriculture committees must hold a vote to advance these bills. Most bills fail because committees do not take action on them, and this effort follows that common pattern.
