In simple terms, H. R. 6875 is a plan to let people from Uruguay trade and invest more easily in the U.S., if Uruguay lets people from the U.S. do the same. It also wants to see if Uruguay should join a group of countries that don't need a special permission to visit the U.S. for short trips.

H.R. 6817 is a plan where people in the United States would pay an extra 10% when sending money to family in other countries, and this money would be used to protect the borders by hiring more guards and building walls. People who don't follow the rules could get in big trouble, like paying a lot of money or even going to jail.
