IF YOU ONLY DO ONE THING

Track whether the bill passes and whether it meaningfully restores congressional oversight access to federal facilities, or stalls in committee.

Why This Score

This is a narrow legislative fix addressing an existing access restriction, with weak governance harm (low A) and minimal media/hype potential (low B). It reflects a procedural congressional-oversight friction point rather than a significant constitutional threat or a distraction spectacle.
