What’s happening with Stuck On Hold Act?
The Stuck On Hold Act is represented by H.R. 5992 and S. 3170, which have remained in committee since November 16, 2025, and April 28, 2026, respectively. Members of the House and Senate committees must act next to hold a vote, but most bills fail because committees choose not to take action. Given that no progress has occurred on the House bill since November 16, 2025, the effort faces a high risk of stalling.
