This Week: The Senate confirmed several Trump administration nominees, including Matthew Whitaker to serve as US Ambassador to NATO, Dean Sauer to serve as US Solicitor General and Mehmet Oz to serve as Head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. It also passed a resolution to end the national emergency declared by President Trump on February 1 to impose US tariffs on Canadian imports and a House‑passed resolution on energy efficiency standards for walk‑in coolers and freezers. The Senate will also vote later today or tomorrow on a budget resolution. The House failed to pass a resolution to block a bill to allow proxy voting for new parents.

Next Week: The Senate will continue to confirm Trump administration nominees. The House will vote on a bill to limit nationwide judicial injunctions, a bill to require in‑person proof of citizenship to register to vote and two Senate‑passed resolutions to repeal CFPB rules on overdraft fees and digital consumer payment platforms. It also may vote again on a resolution to block the proxy voting bill and on the Senate‑passed budget resolution.
