Brandon Gill introduced a bill to stop people from buying hot meals with food assistance, calling it a "fast-food loophole."
This is Standard Republican Policy. Is This What You Want?
Forget the slogans. Judged by what they voted for, what they did, and what they refused to stop, this is what Republicans in Congress stand for, on 20 issues, with the receipts.
Texas Food Stamp Enrollment Just Hit a 17-Year Low While Food Banks See Record Need. 17 Texas Republicans Voted Twice for the Law Driving It.
2.8 million Texans got SNAP in September, the fewest since 2009 and down 20.8% in a year — the steepest drop in two decades. Children are more than half the losses. Every Texas House Republican on this site voted for the budget bill that experts blame.
Republicans Cut Medicaid by Nearly $1 Trillion. They Scheduled the Pain for After You Vote.
The Big Beautiful Bill cuts Medicaid by close to $1 trillion over 10 years, and the Congressional Budget Office says the law will leave 10 million more people uninsured. Republicans made sure the biggest cut doesn't start until 2027 — after the midterms. 198 Republicans on this site voted for it.
Chris Smith Led 128 Republicans in Asking for a Federal Probe of Planned Parenthood. They Asked Whether It 'Illegally Received $88 Million.' Nobody Has Found That.
Chris Smith co-led a 128-Republican letter — signed by 103 Republicans on this site — asking HHS's inspector general to investigate Planned Parenthood. It describes an SBA eligibility review of pandemic loans as a probe into whether affiliates 'illegally received $88 million' — months after the last attack on Planned Parenthood's funding closed nearly 30 clinics.
Twice the House Came One Vote From Telling Trump to End the Iran War — the First Resolution Lost 213-214, the Next Deadlocked 212-212, and 181 Republicans We Track Voted No on Both.
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.
Andrew Clyde Filed a Bill to Redraw the House Before 2028 by Not Counting Noncitizens. 38 Republicans We Cover Signed On the Same Day.
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.'
185 House Members We Track Voted to Make States Hand Your Medicaid and Food Stamp Records to Trump's Former Defense Lawyer
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.

State of the State: Texas Is 40th Overall. Greg Abbott and Texan Republicans in Congress Aren't Helping.
Texas ranks 40th of 50 on the measures we track, with the second-worst food insecurity and second-worst women's health scores in the country. Greg Abbott signed the abortion ban and the school voucher law, never expanded Medicaid, and now runs on affordability after property tax levies rose to $89.4 billion and home insurance premiums rose 79%. Here is the record, and what each of the seventeen Republicans running for reelection has been busy with.

Brandon Gill Filed a Bill to Stop People From Buying a Hot Meal With Food Stamps. The 'Loophole' He Wants Closed Exists for People Who Are Elderly, Disabled or Homeless.
Gill's Ending Restaurant Purchases with SNAP Act targets the $524 million Sen. Joni Ernst's office says ran through the program over two years in nine states. The program he calls a fast-food loophole is a federal option for SNAP recipients who cannot cook or store food. He voted for the $187 billion cut first.
Americans Say Groceries Are Their Biggest Money Worry. House Republicans Spent the Evening of September 1 Voting to Condemn Socialism.
H.Res. 1490 passed 220-192. It changes no law and spends no money. Its one concrete demand is the SAVE America Act, a proof-of-citizenship rule of the kind Kansas tried — where 31,089 people could not register, against 39 confirmed noncitizens the state found in the previous 14 years. 189 members with a page on this site voted yes.
These 188 Republicans Voted to Lock the Supreme Court at Nine Seats While Republican Appointees Hold Six of Them

Brandon Gill Chairs a Task Force on 'Defending Constitutional Rights.' A Colleague Told His Hearing He Fears Gill Will Try to Revoke His Citizenship.
Rep. Dave Min, a birthright citizen, used his time at a House Oversight hearing on Sept. 1 to say that if he says something Gill dislikes, 'maybe he'll try to revoke my citizenship.' Gill circulated a petition last year to deport a sitting member of Congress.

H.R. 8646 passed 213-210 on June 4. It comes in $380 million below last year and, in the Appropriations Committee's own words, reduces salaries and expenses "to account for staffing reductions" — the nearly 4,300 FDA and roughly 900 meat-inspection jobs already gone. 188 members with a page on this site voted yes. Four voted no.
One Hundred Nine Republicans We Track Signed a Bill to Impose Right-to-Work on Every State. Twenty of Them Come From States That Don't Have It.
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.
One in Every 14 Union Members in America Just Lost Their Contract by Executive Order. 195 House Republicans Voted to Keep It That Way.

Eighteen Texas Republicans in Congress Just Put Their Names on Ken Paxton. Six of Them Were Against Him in May.

Brandon Gill's Answer to Being Called Racist Isn't That He Isn't One. It's That the Word Doesn't Work Anymore.

Brandon Gill Represents Texas. He Held a Hearing About Ohio's Medicaid, Then Blocked Every Ohio Democrat Who Asked to Speak.

Five Houses in Little Rock. Two of Them Occupied by Christians. That's the Sharia Takeover.
A governor, an attorney general, a state bill and a 50-member congressional caucus have all mobilized against a Sharia takeover. In Arkansas it traces back to a hate group's blog post and a small subdivision that's been there for two decades.
ICE Is Reading Your Posts. Congress Paid for It.
A Wall Street Journal investigation found ICE is paying contractors millions to scan social media around the clock, then using subpoenas to unmask Americans who criticize the agency. Nobody has been charged. That may be the point.
38 Republicans Signed a One-Sentence Bill to Abolish the Department of Education
