Fix Our Flooded Basements Act of 2025 This bill expands the disaster assistance provided to individuals and households for repairs to and property in flood-damaged basements. It also expands eligibility and coverage for certain group flood insurance. Under current law, the Individual Assistance (IA) program of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) limits home repair assistance for flood-damaged basements to damage affecting the safety, sanitation, or functionality of the home (e.g., structural damage, hazardous conditions). The bill allows home repair assistance for disaster-caused mold, mildew, and moisture damage in basements regardless of whether the damage affects safety, sanitation, or functionality. Additionally, flood-damaged basements are eligible for home repair assistance even when the basement is not required for occupying the dwelling. Also, currently, IA assistance for flood-damaged personal property in basements is limited to washers, dryers, and property essential for occupying the dwelling. The bill expands IA personal property assistance to more broadly cover property damaged by disaster-caused flooding in basements. The scope of such assistance must at least equal the coverage for such damage by a standard policy under the National Flood Insurance Program (e.g., covering air conditioning units and freezers in basements). Additionally, FEMA must expand the eligibility and coverage of the group flood insurance it provides to IA recipients, including increasing the maximum coverage and expanding coverage for basements. The bill also excludes from the maximum for IA housing assistance expenses for (1) hazard mitigation measures in flood-damaged basements, and (2) premiums for group flood insurance policies.

The three-day waiting period does not apply to certain handgun transfers, such as for a loan between spouses for a lawful purpose.

Cosmetic Supply Chain Transparency Act of 2025 This bill requires the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to maintain a list of certain chemicals incidentally present in cosmetics, known as nonfunctional constituents , that are harmful to human health or the environment. The bill also imposes certain testing and disclosure requirements on cosmetics brand owners (i.e., entities bringing cosmetics to market) and suppliers of cosmetics, packaging, and ingredients. For each listed nonfunctional constituent, the FDA must identify the ingredient or cosmetic in which the constituent is known or reasonably expected to be present. The FDA must also (1) accept petitions to add substances to the list, (2) issue guidance for industry related to testing and detecting such nonfunctional constituents, and (3) establish a committee to provide advice on creating the list and developing the required industry guidance. Within a year of a nonfunctional constituent being added to the list, a supplier of an ingredient or cosmetic must test for that constituent and provide a brand owner the results and other information before selling the ingredient or cosmetic to the brand owner. A supplier of an ingredient or cosmetic must provide additional information about the item upon a brand owner's request. Brand owners and other entities in the supply chain of a cosmetic must maintain records with information about the suppliers of ingredients and raw materials used in their cosmetics and provide such information to the FDA upon request. The bill also imposes civil penalties for entities that violate this bill's provisions.

Cosmetic Safety for Communities of Color and Professional Salon Workers Act of 2025 This bill establishes programs and requirements to address the effects of harmful chemicals in cosmetics on consumers and salon workers, particularly in communities of color, and subjects synthetic braids to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Specifically, the FDA must establish safety standards for synthetic braids. Synthetic braids that do not meet such standards must be labeled with a specified warning. The bill also requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to conduct (or award grants for) research on harmful chemicals most commonly found in cosmetics marketed to and used by women and girls of color and professional nail, hair, and beauty salon workers. HHS must publish reports summarizing this research, including recommendations for reducing potentially unsafe exposures. In addition, the FDA must award grants to support the development of alternative, safer chemicals that may be used in place of harmful chemicals in cosmetics. HHS must also establish, through grants to eligible entities, national resource centers on beauty justice and salon worker health and safety to educate consumers and salon workers, respectively, about harmful chemicals in cosmetics. Finally, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration must require manufacturers and importers of professional cosmetic products to make safety data sheets available in multiple languages for cosmetics that include certain hazardous chemicals. Employers, including salon operators, must make the relevant safety data sheet available to any employee exposed to a product subject to this requirement.

Cosmetic Hazardous Ingredient Right to Know Act of 2025 This bill requires cosmetic products to be labeled with a full list of their ingredients, including fragrance and flavor ingredients, and imposes other disclosure and labeling requirements related to certain potentially harmful ingredients. A cosmetic product that fails to meet such requirements may not be sold. Under current law, a cosmetic product’s packaging must generally include a list of its ingredients, but fragrance or flavor ingredients may be listed as fragrance or flavor in lieu of listing specific ingredient names. Within two years of the bill’s enactment, a cosmetic product's labeling or packaging must include a full list of its ingredients, including fragrance and flavor ingredients. Further, if the cosmetic includes certain ingredients, its labeling or packaging must also contain a specified statement directing consumers to the brand owner's website for information on health impacts of the product’s ingredients. Ingredients that trigger this requirement include those identified on specified lists of harmful or potentially harmful chemicals, such as chemicals identified as carcinogenic by the Environmental Protection Agency. The Food and Drug Administration must maintain a public list of all such ingredients. Within one year of enactment, a brand owner must disclose certain information on its website for each of its cosmetic products, including a full list of ingredients; the functional purpose served by each fragrance or flavor ingredient; and if any ingredient is identified on the specified lists of harmful or potentially harmful chemicals, a link to the relevant list.
