Congressman John Delaney (D-Maryland) has introduced HR 2655, to require top-two primaries for all congressional elections. The text is the same as his HR 5334 from the last session of Congress.
The bill has two co-sponsors so far: Jared Polis (D-Colorado) and Scott Peters (D-California).
The bill is called "Open Our Democracy Act":
To require all candidates for election for the office of Member of the House of Representatives to run in a single open primary regardless of political party preference, to limit the ensuing general election for such office to the two candidates receiving the greatest number of votes in such single open primary, and for other purposes.
