What’s happening with SURS Extension Act?
The SURS Extension Act, introduced as H.R. 9002, has been in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce and the Committee on Ways and Means since May 20, 2026. These committees must act to advance the bill, but most legislation fails because it never receives a committee vote. This pattern of inaction is the standard way most bills end their life cycle in Congress.
