What’s happening with Jaime’s Law?

As of June 11, 2026, H.R. 7564 and S. 3873 remain in their respective judiciary committees with no recorded action since February 11, 2026. The House and Senate committees must hold a vote to move these bills forward, but most legislation fails because committees choose not to act. This pattern of inaction is the most common way for bills to end in Congress.
