What’s happening with Repealing Big Brother Overreach Act?

H.R. 425 sits on the House Union Calendar as of June 17, 2026, after clearing the House Committee on Financial Services. House leadership must now schedule a floor vote to advance the bill, which is the primary constraint because floor time is limited. While reaching the calendar is a milestone that most bills do not achieve, the effort remains stalled without a scheduled vote.
