PolicyDownpayment Toward Equity Act of 2025The Downpayment Toward Equity Act is a federal bill that would help first-time homebuyers — especially those from communities that have faced barriers to homeownership — with money for a down payment so they can buy their first home.

PolicyRecognizing Homeschool GraduatesThis federal bill makes sure that students who are homeschooled get official recognition when they finish their education. This makes it easier for them to apply to colleges and get jobs, just like students from other schools.

PolicyRetirement Savings for EveryoneThis federal bill creates a retirement savings plan for all workers, even if your job does not offer one. It helps make sure you and your family can save money for when you are older and ready to stop working.
