What’s happening with Saving Privacy Act?

The Saving Privacy Act, H.R. 2155, has remained in House committees since March 13, 2025. House committee members must act next to hold a vote, but the bill faces a binding constraint because most legislation never receives a committee hearing. History shows that committee inaction is the most common way for bills to end without reaching the floor.
