What’s happening with American FIRST Act of 2025?

The American FIRST Act of 2025, known as H.R. 6550, was placed on the Union Calendar on February 24, 2026, and has seen no further action since that date. The full House of Representatives must now vote on the bill, but the binding constraint is that House leadership decides which bills receive floor time. While reaching the calendar is a significant milestone that most legislation fails to achieve, floor time remains limited for all proposals.
