Establish a national database to track and manage the registration of motor vehicles.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with YODA?
The effort to create a national vehicle database is currently represented by H.R. 8652, which has been in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce since May 3, 2026. Committee members must decide to hold a vote for the bill to move forward, but most bills fail because committees do not take action. This outcome is common as the vast majority of legislative proposals never receive a committee vote.
