Rep. McGovern Pushes Bill to Create Hearing Aid Tax Credits and Expand National Park Access for Students
This bill is in the early stages of the legislative process and was sent to several House committees on July 1, 2026. It is currently stalled because it has not received a committee vote since it was introduced. The bill must be reviewed by these committees before it can move forward.
While the bill contains popular items like hearing aid credits, it covers many different topics and was referred to over 20 committees, which usually makes a bill very difficult to pass.
