Bill Analysis
H.Res. 211, introduced in the 119th Congress, outlines the procedural framework for considering several legislative measures, primarily focusing on issues related to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), unemployment fraud, and appropriations for fiscal year 2025.
The resolution facilitates the consideration of three key legislative items:
H.J. Res. 25: This joint resolution seeks congressional disapproval of a rule proposed by the IRS concerning “Gross Proceeds Reporting by Brokers That Regularly Provide Services Effectuating Digital Asset Sales.” This rule aims to enhance reporting requirements for brokers involved in digital asset transactions, impacting compliance and regulatory oversight in the cryptocurrency market.
H.R. 1156: This bill proposes to amend the CARES Act by extending the statute of limitations for prosecuting fraud related to certain unemployment programs. This extension is designed to bolster the government’s ability to investigate and penalize fraudulent claims made during the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring accountability and integrity in unemployment assistance.
H.R. 1968: This bill addresses continuing appropriations and other extensions necessary for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025. It aims to ensure that federal agencies have the necessary funding to operate without interruption, thereby maintaining essential government services.
The resolution’s provisions allow for an organized debate and voting process on these measures, which are significant for various stakeholders, including federal agencies like the IRS and the Department of Labor, as well as individuals and businesses involved in digital asset transactions and unemployment assistance programs.
The latest action on H.Res. 211 indicates that it has been amended pursuant to the provisions of H.Res. 707, which may further refine the legislative process or the specifics of the bills being considered. Key timelines for debate and voting will follow the resolution’s adoption, impacting the legislative calendar and subsequent actions on these issues.
