The AP and the Guardian obtained a January 2019 letter in which Robert F. Kennedy Jr. asked Samoa's prime minister to let his team study the country's MMR vaccines. He told senators the trip had nothing to do with vaccines. Fourteen Republicans we track voted to confirm him.
H.R. 1232 would delete the part of federal labor law that lets a union and an employer agree everyone covered by a contract helps pay for it — in all 50 states, whatever each state decided. Missouri voters killed right-to-work 67-33. Michigan repealed it. Their congressmen signed anyway.
S. 5202 would bar federal funds from any research or publication on gender transition in minors. Blackburn and Tuberville cosponsored it on July 30 — two weeks before Medicare's agency published the rule ending Medicaid coverage for the care itself. Both are running for governor.
Two weeks after the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that children born here are citizens, Greg Steube filed the Birthright CLAIM Act. Stephanie Bice, Ralph Norman and Tim Burchett put their names on it.
A year ago Americans were split on AI data centers. Now 75% oppose one in their area. These eight Republicans spent that year helping the build-out along, taking the industry's money, or both. Five have spent the last few weeks repositioning. Three are still making the industry's case.
The debt hit $40 trillion on Wednesday. Trump's second term added $3.8 trillion of it in 19 months. Republicans still call themselves the party of fiscal responsibility.
71% of Americans don't want a data center near them. Rather than answer them, these members asked the FBI and the Justice Department to investigate who's funding the opposition — while researchers who actually looked for a Chinese campaign said: 'We haven't found much.'
Two executive orders, plus an earlier move against TSA screeners, stripped collective bargaining from 84.4% of the unionized federal workforce. A bipartisan bill to restore it passed the House 231-195 — every Democrat for it, 195 Republicans against — and the Senate has sat on it for eight months.
Republicans put a 12-year cap on congressional service to a House vote in 1995. Four of these men were there for it. Two of them are now in year 45. And five Republicans currently cosponsor a three-term cap while serving their 7th, 10th and 17th terms.
