The White House said the president signed four congressional bills into law on Friday, September 11, 2026.

According to the official release, H.R. 1276 requires the Department of the Interior to remove all deed restrictions from an approximately 3.62-acre parcel that had been conveyed by the department to the City of Paducah, Kentucky.

H.R. 2069, titled the Stop Secret Spending Act of 2025, expands federal spending transparency requirements to cover other transaction agreements and changes related standards, oversight and reporting, the White House said.

The president also signed H.R. 2196, the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Extension Act, which extends the authority of the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Foundation to establish a commemorative work on federal land in the District of Columbia honoring the commitment and service of emergency medical services personnel.

The fourth measure, H.R. 5366, the Doug LaMalfa Federal Disaster Tax Relief Certainty Act, extends and codifies the federal tax deduction for qualified disaster-related personal casualty losses and the exclusion from gross income of qualified wildfire relief payments.
