What’s happening with Schedules That Work Act?
The Schedules That Work Act, introduced as H.R. 6786 on December 16, 2025, remains in House committees with no action taken since that date. Members of the House committees must hold a vote to move the bill forward, but most bills fail to receive such a vote and die in committee. This lack of movement is the standard outcome for the vast majority of legislative proposals.
