Investing in All of America Act of 2025 (HR 2066) – Introduced on March 11, 2025, by Rep. Daniel Meuser (R-PA), this legislation revises how private capital is defined and adjusts Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) leverage limits.

FIRE Act (HR 6387) – Introduced by Gabe Evans (R-CO) on Dec. 3, 2025, this bill addresses a current quandary between federal air quality enforcement and state-level wildfire prevention. In an effort to curb wildfires, some states conduct controlled burns. However, these prescribed burns do not always comply with national air quality standards. The act would amend the current Clean Air Act to exclude state wildfire mitigation activities from air quality compliance calculations. The fix remains controversial because some lawmakers see it as a gateway to weakening the nation’s air quality standards. The FIRE Act passed in the House on April 22 and is now in the Senate for consideration.

The bipartisan bill was introduced by David Joyce (R-OH) on April 10, passed in the House on May 12, and is under consideration in the Senate.
