Week’s committee schedule and agenda

As reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, the panel is holding two subcommittee hearings and two subcommittee markups this week at the Rayburn House Office Building in Washington, D.C.

On Wednesday, June 24, 2026, the Subcommittee on Environment is holding a hearing on domestic critical mineral recovery and recycling at 10:15 a.m. ET in Room 2123. Later the same day, the Subcommittee on Energy is holding a 2:00 p.m. ET markup of eight bills focused on electricity and pipeline safety in the same room.

On Thursday, June 25, 2026, the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations is holding a 10:15 a.m. ET hearing centered on rooting out systemic fraud in Medicaid and strengthening program integrity nationwide. That afternoon, the Subcommittee on Health is holding a 2:00 p.m. ET markup of 15 bills aimed at expanding price transparency for patients and employers and protecting communities from illicit substances.

Policy implications for energy and health sectors

The week’s lineup highlights the committee’s wide jurisdiction across industrial supply chains, energy infrastructure and healthcare regulation. The critical minerals hearing points to continued congressional attention on domestic sourcing and recycling, while the energy markup keeps focus on grid and pipeline oversight.

On the healthcare side, the scheduled sessions show lawmakers are combining program integrity concerns with cost transparency and public safety measures. Together, the hearings and markups indicate continued committee activity on compliance, consumer protection and infrastructure policy in the U.S.

In our earlier report on the Ratepayer Protection Act, we covered lawmakers’ push to shift the cost of grid upgrades away from households and small businesses and onto large-load AI data center developers. The proposal would require utilities to adopt large-load standards and have builders pay for new generation, transmission and related infrastructure tied to their facilities, underscoring growing congressional focus on grid oversight and who bears infrastructure costs.
