The House passed a resolution ordering U.S. forces out of the Iran war in July. The Senate finally voted on it September 24 and it failed 49-50. Fourteen senators on our report cards voted no — including Jon Husted, who said two days earlier the war 'needs to come to an end as quickly as possible.'
On April 16 a war powers resolution failed 213-214. On May 14 the next one deadlocked 212-212, and a tie fails. Either one needed exactly one Republican to switch. Only Thomas Massie, who has no page here, voted yes both times.
Updated October 15: David Rouzer skipped a UNC Wilmington forum and Russell Fry backed out of an NAACP forum six hours before it started; Tom Cotton's only agreed debate fell through. October 12: Keith Self, asked on national TV whether he would debate, called the district 'my seat.' October 10: Cliff Bentz declined four debate invitations because accepting would make his opponent look 'credible,' Jim Pillen called debates 'theater,' and Julie Fedorchak pulled out of North Dakota's public TV debate. Earlier: Jeff Hurd declined televised debate invitations and agreed to one 30-minute session before a friendly audience instead. John McGuire says he'll debate when his opponent apologizes for raising a BlackRock sale the disclosure records in his wife's retirement account. They join fourteen Republicans we have already documented ducking the one event they can't script.
A chief of staff in a group chat with Nick Fuentes and Richard Spencer. A political director whose profile picture showed Hitler's SS. A student outreach recruit who asked whether Jews should be sent to North Korea. A swastika flag in a congressman's office. Eight Republicans on this site, one answer.
H.R. 10377 would drop every noncitizen from the count used to hand out House seats, force a new apportionment before the 2028 election, and put a citizenship question on every future census. The Fourteenth Amendment — which Clyde's filing cites as its authority — says to count 'the whole number of persons in each State.'
On September 16 the House passed the PROOF Act, 217-207. It orders states to turn over whatever Medicaid, SNAP and other benefit records Attorney General Todd Blanche asks for in writing, with no judge involved. A federal court had already blocked the Trump administration from cutting food stamp funding to states that refused to hand over recipient data. 185 of the members who voted yes have report cards on this site.
In June, 19 Republicans in Congress signed a letter urging the EPA to add mifepristone to its list of possible water contaminants. On September 9 the EPA announced a drinking-water study that includes the two abortion drugs. Environmental health experts say there's no scientific evidence abortion medication harms the environment or people — and five days later, the EPA announced it is scrapping carbon limits on power plants.
On September 15 the House voted 220-204 to end the war with Iran — the third time since June. Republicans voted 203 to 7 against it, and 180 of the members who voted no are on our report cards. The same day, the Congressional Budget Office put the war's direct cost at $38.1 billion and said it will push inflation higher into 2027.
A list of the Republicans who voted to block the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act went around X this week. We checked all 42 names against the official roll calls. Every one of them voted against the bill — and the record is worse than the list says.
