What’s happening with Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act of 2025?
As of February 2, 2026, the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies Act is active in the House under H.R. 7325. The Senate must now hold a floor vote to move the effort forward, but the binding constraint is the limited time available for leadership to schedule votes. While the bill reached a milestone by being reported out of committee on July 30, 2025, most bills do not receive floor time and this effort has seen no action on the Senate side since that date.
