the export of liquified natural gas (LNG) and petroleum products to specific countries. The bill was introduced in the US Congress with the intention of addressing national security concerns and protecting American interests. The legislation prohibits the export of LNG and petroleum products to countries that are deemed to pose a threat to the United States or its allies. This includes countries that have a history of supporting terrorism, violating human rights, or engaging in aggressive actions against other nations. By restricting the export of these energy resources, the bill seeks to limit the ability of these countries to use them for nefarious purposes. Supporters of the bill argue that it is necessary to safeguard national security and prevent the misuse of American energy resources. They believe that by restricting exports to certain countries, the US can protect its interests and maintain stability in the global energy market. Opponents of the bill, however, argue that it could have negative economic consequences for American energy producers and harm international trade relations. They believe that the restrictions could lead to a decrease in demand for US energy products and ultimately hurt the domestic economy. Overall, Bill 119 s 1274 is a contentious piece of legislation that raises important questions about the balance between national security and economic interests. As the bill makes its way through the legislative process, it will be important for lawmakers to carefully consider the potential implications of restricting the export of LNG and petroleum products to certain countries.

The Garifuna people are descendants of West African, Carib, and Arawak people who were exiled from the Caribbean island of St. Vincent in the late 18th century and settled in Central America, particularly Honduras, Belize, Guatemala, and Nicaragua.

It highlights their contributions to music, dance, cuisine, and other aspects of American society. The resolution also acknowledges the challenges that Garifuna immigrants have faced, including discrimination and marginalization, and calls for greater awareness and appreciation of their heritage. If passed, this resolution would designate April as "National Garifuna Immigrant Heritage Month" and encourage individuals, schools, and communities to celebrate and honor the rich history and culture of Americans of Garifuna immigrant heritage.

ll is to restrict the government's ability to recover overpayments made under titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act to a maximum of 10 years. Currently, the government has the authority to recover overpayments indefinitely, which can create financial hardship for individuals who have received these overpayments. This bill seeks to provide relief to individuals by limiting the time period in which the government can collect on these overpayments. If passed, this bill would ensure that individuals are not burdened with excessive debt due to overpayments made by the government. It would also provide a more reasonable and fair approach to recovering these funds. Overall, the "Limiting Overpayments to 10 Years Act" aims to protect individuals from financial hardship and provide a more balanced approach to the recovery of overpayments under the Social Security Act.
