Dossier Legislative introduced 13-jul-2026
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

FAIR Data Act

Key claim: The FAIR Data Act (HR9655, 119th Congress) was referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.

Abstract

(HR9655 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-13): Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.

Why this matters

A bill invoking FAIR data principles could shape how federal agencies and regulated entities structure data for access and interoperability, with downstream implications for individuals’ ability to obtain and reuse data about themselves and for companies’ data-sharing obligations. Because only the title and committee referral are known, the actual scope — whether it targets government data, private-sector data, or research data — remains an open question worth tracking as the text becomes available.
