How this connects
HR 4729 is a bill in the 119th Congress that would write Executive Order 14292 into law. That order deals with making biological research safer and more secure. As of July 23, 2025, the bill was sent to the House Committees on Energy and Commerce and on Science, Space, and Technology for review. Its main policy area is health.
This bill would make existing rules about biological research safety into permanent law. If it passes, those rules could not be undone by a future executive order alone.
