H. R. 8648, or the "Civil Rights Protection Act of 2024," is a new rule that makes sure colleges tell people how they handle complaints about unfair treatment, like if someone is treated differently because of their race. It also checks that colleges keep complainants updated and that anyone in charge does not ignore these issues, even if other places are looking into the same problem.

The Federal Prison Oversight Act is a rule saying there needs to be regular check-ups to make sure that jails are safe and fair places, and there's a special helper to listen to people’s worries and make things better.
