H.R. 3104In CommitteePriorityBipartisan

Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025

Grants lawful permanent residency to Ukrainians who were paroled into the U.S. after February 2014 and have maintained continuous presence, protecting hundreds of thousands from deportation to an active war zone. This is the single most important piece of legislation for the Ukrainian community and all who support them.

Why It Matters: Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

D.P. 8217 / 218 SignaturesPriorityBipartisan

Discharge Petition 8: Secure a Vote H.R. 2913

Discharge Petition No. 8 bypasses Speaker Johnson to bring the Ukraine Support Act (H.R. 2913) directly to the House floor. 218 signatures are required; the petition currently stands at 217 — only 1 more Republican signature is needed to secure a floor vote. Current GOP signers: Don Bacon (NE-02) and Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-01).

Why It Matters: This discharge petition is the fastest path to a floor vote on the Ukraine Support Act. With 217 of 218 signatures (verified April 3, 2026), it is just 1 Republican signature away from forcing a floor vote on H.R. 2913 — bypassing the committee blockade entirely.

Protecting Our Guests During Hostilities in Ukraine Act

Creates "Ukrainian guest status" for Ukrainians who entered the U.S. through the Uniting for Ukraine parole program (launched April 2022), granting them lawful status and employment authorization. Status expires 120 days after the Secretary of State certifies that hostilities in Ukraine have ceased and safe return is possible. House companion to S. 696, introduced by Rep. Fitzpatrick with bipartisan support.

Why It Matters: Over 200,000 Ukrainians entered the U.S. through the Uniting for Ukraine parole program. Without this bill, their legal status and work authorization could expire while the war continues, forcing them to return to an active war zone. This House bill, paired with S. 696 in the Senate, ensures Congress can act on both sides of the Capitol to protect these individuals.

Requires 500% tariffs on Russian goods, visa bans on Russian officials, and financial sanctions on Russian banks.

Freedom First Lend-Lease Act

Reestablishes lend-lease authority for Ukraine's defense, modeled on the historic World War II Lend-Lease Act. Allows the United States to lend or lease defense equipment to Ukraine without the lengthy procurement process, enabling faster delivery of critical military supplies.

Why It Matters: Lend-lease allows the U.S. to deliver weapons to Ukraine at the speed of war rather than the speed of procurement. This bill revives a proven World War II-era tool that could be decisive in Ukraine's defense.
