AACRThis resolution supports the designation of National School Choice Week.
This resolution calls on the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) to revoke its transgender student-athlete eligibility policy and urges the NCAA to require its member conferences to conform to a biological sex-based policy across all sports and all divisions.
**Fair Access to Banking Act** This bill places restrictions on certain banks, credit unions, and payment card networks if they refuse to do business with a person who complies with the law. Restrictions include prohibiting the use of electronic funds transfer systems and lending programs, termination of an institution's depository insurance, and specified civil penalties. Banks and other specified financial institutions are allowed to deny financial services to a person only if the denial is justified by a documented failure of that person to meet quantitative, impartial, risk-based standards established in advance by the institution. This justification may not be based upon reputational risks to the institution. The bill establishes the right for a person to bring a civil action for a violation of this bill.
**250 Years of Service and Sacrifice Commemorative Coin Act** This bill directs the Department of the Treasury to mint and issue coins in recognition of the United States’ semiquincentennial. All surcharges received by Treasury from the sale of such coins must be paid to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
**Defending Domestic Orange Juice Production Act of 2025** This bill requires finished pasteurized orange juice to contain at least 10% by weight of orange juice soluble solids, exclusive of the solids of any added optional sweetening ingredients. (Current regulations require at least 10.5% by weight of orange juice soluble solids.)
