Full chamber floor — Speaker / Majority Leader controls scheduling
Creates independent commissions to solve major problems through bipartisan cooperation.
The problem
Political gridlock and partisan division prevent Congress from solving major national issues effectively. Policymakers struggle to find common ground across party lines.
The proposal
Establishes independent commissions with balanced membership to study and propose solutions to significant national problems. Commissions report findings to Congress for consideration.
The impact
Members of Congress, federal agencies, and the public affected by commission recommendations. Changes how certain policy decisions are made and debated.
Independent commissions with balanced membership from both parties may find common ground more easily. This approach has worked for issues like base closures and 9/11 investigations.
Commissions can include experts, academics, and professionals outside Congress. Their knowledge may improve solutions to complex national problems.
Requiring balanced representation forces Republicans and Democrats to work together. This may produce recommendations both parties can support.
Independent commissions appear less political to voters. Transparent processes may help citizens trust policy solutions more.
Independent commission reports are not binding on lawmakers. Congress could reject findings, making commissions ineffective or wasteful.
Creating commissions and waiting for reports takes time. Urgent problems needing quick solutions may suffer from slower processes.
The bill provides no information about how many commissions would exist, their budgets, or which issues they address. Hidden costs could be significant.
Voters cannot directly vote out commission members. Shifting decisions to unelected commissions weakens direct democratic control.

Individual contributions, grouped by employer · FEC
Where their individual donors work · 2026 cycle
Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
