One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with ESA Amendments Act of 2025?
As of April 19, 2026, the House Rules Committee has cleared H.R. 1897 for floor consideration. The full House must now hold a vote to advance the bill, but the primary constraint is that leadership controls the limited time available for floor debates. While reaching this stage is a significant milestone that most legislation fails to achieve, many bills still stall before receiving a final vote.
