Biden Signs 50 Bills on Christmas Eve, Sparking Far-Right Outrage
President Biden concluded the year by signing fifty bills into law, including legislation championed by Paris Hilton to improve conditions in youth residential facilities, a bill establishing anti-hazing standards in higher education, and a measure preventing corrupt members of Congress from receiving pensions. Additionally, a new law designates the bald eagle as the national bird. The president also commuted the death sentences of 37 federal inmates and vetoed a bill creating new federal judgeships.
