H.Con.Res. 14 (Alsobrooks Amdt. 1466)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking President Trump''s Executive Order that Restricts Federal Collective Bargaining and Union Power that Hikes Taxpayer Costs

With GOP
The Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) amendment #1466 to the Senate budget resolution would protect federal collective bargaining agreements and the right to organize for government employees. The amendment is aimed at reversing President Trump''s Executive Order 14251, "Exclusions from Federal Labor-Management Relations Programs," issued March 27, 2025, which invoked national-security authorities to exclude dozens of agencies and subcomponents from federal collective bargaining requirements and to end union bargaining, grievance, and arbitration procedures in those covered components. By setting up a reserve fund to "prohibit attacks" on federal unions, the amendment would lock in union work rules and bargaining leverage as a budget priority, making it harder to carry out workforce reforms and accountability measures even after widespread waste and inefficiency have been exposed across the federal government.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Baldwin Amdt. 1693)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving Out-of-Control Medicaid Spending by Blocking Trump Admin Reforms that Improve System Integrity and Reduce Waste

With GOP
The Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) amendment #1693 to the Senate budget resolution would allow the Senate Budget Committee Chairman to adjust budget levels to prevent a reduction in Medicaid funding that could lead to rural hospital closures, higher costs for people with other kinds of insurance, or higher rates of uncompensated care. While framed as protecting rural access, the amendment would create a new budget mechanism designed to shield Medicaid from savings and integrity reforms by treating any reduction as off-limits. Opponents argued Medicaid cannot be protected by keeping wasteful spending on autopilot, especially when the program is riddled with payment games and improper spending that divert resources away from actual patient care. Rural communities need targeted, accountable solutions that improve care delivery and reduce bureaucracy – not a reserve fund that entrenches the Medicaid welfare system and blocks needed cost control.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Bennet Amdt. 1646)Senate 2025-20261x

Placing America Last by Locking-In Aid to Ukraine and Restricting Congress from Imposing New Limits

With GOP
The Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) amendment #1646 to the Senate budget resolution would prevent any cuts to aid or security assistance to Ukraine. It would allow the Chairman of the Senate Budget Committee to revise committee allocations, aggregates, and other budget levels to "preserve the delivery of assistance to Ukraine." Opponents argue the amendment in effect, protects open-ended foreign commitments inside the budget process while Washington is running massive deficits and failing to secure the border, restore fiscal discipline, and deliver accountability at home.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Cortez Masto Amdt. 1690)Senate 2025-20261x

Entrenching the Inflation Reduction Act Drug Price Controls by Blocking Reforms in the Senate Budget.

With GOP
This vote was on a motion to advance the Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) amendment #1690 to the Senate budget resolution. The amendment would create a new point of order against legislation deemed to "increase drug costs for seniors and people with disabilities on Medicare," giving Senate leadership another procedural tool to block changes to federal drug policy. Opponents argued this measure is an attempt to enshrine the draconian price controls imposed under the Inflation Reduction Act by making it harder for Congress to revisit or roll back the IRA''s mandates. The IRA created an inflation rebate scheme that punishes manufacturers when certain Medicare drug prices rise faster than inflation, and while it is sold as consumer relief, critics warn it operates like a backdoor price cap that distorts markets. They note these policies can encourage higher launch prices, reduce discounts, and tighten access as companies try to manage rebate exposure, while pushing the system further toward centralized government control of medicine and undermining investment in new cures over time.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Kim Amdt. 1644)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking $880 Billion in Medicaid Reforms by Using a "Caregiving" Reserve Fund to Protect an Unsustainable Entitlement from Waste Cuts

With GOP
The Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) amendment #1644 to the Senate budget resolution would create a deficit-neutral reserve fund allowing the Senate Budget Committee Chairman to adjust budget levels for legislation aimed at preventing increased barriers for caregivers and the "care economy." In practice, this reserve fund is designed to ensure that the $880 billion in Medicaid savings and reforms contemplated under the budget do not take effect in ways that reduce spending or tighten eligibility and financing. Opponents argued the amendment would be used to block integrity reforms by the Trump administration that cut waste, fraud, and abuse and to preserve a Medicaid system that has exploded in cost and become increasingly unsustainable. They warned that protecting the status quo keeps incentives for dependency in place while taxpayers are forced to subsidize a rapidly expanding entitlement program that was never meant to function as an open-ended spending pipeline.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Ossoff Amdt. 2186)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking DOGE Social Security Efficiency Reforms Designed to Cut Bureaucracy and Waste

With GOP
The Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) amendment #2186 to the Senate budget resolution would allow the Senate Budget Committee Chairman to adjust budget levels to reverse cuts to the Social Security Administration, including cuts ordered by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) or any other changes to seniors'' services. While presented as protecting seniors, the amendment is designed to insulate the SSA from streamlining efforts and make it harder to reduce bureaucracy and administrative bloat. Opponents argued Social Security is not a federal jobs program, and taxpayers should not be forced to fund inefficient structures when reforms can modernize service delivery, reduce waste, and strengthen integrity. Locking in a mechanism to "reverse cuts" also undermines accountability by treating any efficiency measure as unacceptable, even when the federal government faces enormous deficits and a nearly $39 trillion national debt.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Padilla Amdt. 1774)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving FEMA's Open-Ended Disaster Bureaucracy Instead of Reforming Waste, Mismanagement, and Federal Overreach

With GOP
The Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) amendment #1774 to the Senate budget resolution would reiterate the importance of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and its continued role in providing nonpartisan and long-term disaster relief to disaster survivors. While framed as a simple affirmation, the amendment is designed to discourage efforts to restructure disaster relief and to keep Washington entrenched as the default responder and long-term payer for rebuilding. Opponents argued FEMA''s mission creep has fueled an expensive system that shifts responsibilities away from states and localities, encourages dependency on federal bailouts, and too often lacks real accountability when billions are spent quickly. They warned that refusing to reform the disaster-relief model locks taxpayers into more debt-financed spending while the federal government struggles to manage its massive obligations and growing deficit.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Paul Amdt. 1760)Senate 2025-20263x

Blocking the Largest Debt-Limit Blowout in History by Limiting the Increase and Forcing Real Spending Restraint

Against GOP
The Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) amendment #1760 to the Senate budget resolution would modify the debt limit reconciliation instruction for the House and Senate. Specifically, it would reduce the instructed debt-limit increase to $500 billion rather than the roughly $5 trillion increase contemplated under the budget resolution''s broader approach. The debt limit is one of the last remaining restraints that forces Congress to confront borrowing, and a historic multi-trillion-dollar hike signals Washington is not serious about making DOGE-style waste cuts permanent. By limiting the increase, the amendment would keep pressure on Congress to actually deliver structural spending reductions instead of treating waste-cutting as a temporary talking point that disappears once more borrowing authority is granted.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Rosen Amdt. 2152)Senate 2025-20261x

Advancing Wealth Redistribution by Creating a "Middle-Class Tax Relief" Reserve Fund Built on Higher Taxes for the Ultra-Wealthy and Corporations

With GOP
The Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) amendment #2152 to the Senate budget resolution would create a deficit-neutral reserve fund allowing the Senate Budget Committee Chairman to adjust budget levels for legislation providing tax relief for the middle class and small businesses while ensuring corporations and the ultra-wealthy "pay their fair share," so long as it does not increase deficits over fiscal years 2025 through 2034. While marketed as middle-class relief, the amendment is structured around a class-war premise that Washington should shift the tax burden upward and then use the tax code to redistribute through new federal tax-policy packages. Opponents argued this approach invites bigger government and politicized tax engineering, with taxpayers and job creators treated as revenue targets to finance new promises rather than driving real reforms that restrain spending and reduce dependency.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Sanders Amdt. 2126)Senate 2025-20261x

Fueling Higher Unemployment by Advancing a $17 an Hour Federal Minimum Wage Rate Hike

With GOP
The Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) amendment #2126 to the Senate budget resolution would create a reserve fund allowing the Senate Budget Committee Chairman to advance legislation increasing the federal minimum wage to at least $17 an hour over five years. The stated purpose is to ensure the Senate can raise the minimum wage by a simple majority vote, bypassing normal Senate constraints and pushing a major national labor mandate through a budget process. Opponents argued a one size fits all federal wage floor ignores regional cost differences and would hit small businesses, nonprofits, and local employers with higher labor costs that often lead to fewer entry level jobs, reduced hours, or faster automation. They also warned it would shift more workers into government dependency as employers cut opportunities, while Washington imposes centralized wage policy that states and communities are better positioned to address.
H.Con.Res. 14 (Wyden Amdt. 1989)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking $880 Billion in Medicaid Cuts to Keep the Welfare System on Autopilot and Prevent Integrity Reforms

With GOP
The Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) amendment #1989 to the Senate budget resolution would strike a section that directs the House Energy and Commerce Committee to achieve $880,000,000,000 in savings from Medicaid over the next decade. As a result, the amendment would prevent Medicaid reforms and would protect the status quo in a program known to be plagued by waste, weak accountability, and financing games that shift costs onto federal taxpayers. Opponents of the amendment argued that Medicaid cannot be treated as a permanent, open-ended spending pipeline and that real savings are necessary to protect the program for the truly needy, improve integrity, and address an unsustainable fiscal trajectory driven by runaway federal spending and debt.
H.J. RES. 104Senate 2025-20261x

Overturning a Biden Bureau of Land Management Plan that Prevents Coal Leasing on 1.7 Million Acres of Federal Land

With GOP
This resolution introduced by Rep. Troy Downing (R-MT) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) relating to the "Miles City Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment." Resource management plans guide how BLM-administered lands are managed, including whether and where coal leasing may be considered. The Miles City plan amendment made 1.7 million acres unavailable for future coal leasing. According to supporters, this kind of federal land "lock up" undermines local economies and energy affordability by putting Washington planners ahead of workers, communities, and responsible development.
H.J. RES. 105Senate 2025-20261x

Overturning a Biden Bureau of Land Management Rule that Restricts Oil, Gas, and Coal Development on Federal Lands in North Dakota.

With GOP
This resolution introduced by Rep. Julie Fedorchak (R-ND) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule submitted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) relating to the "North Dakota Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan." Resource management plans guide how BLM-administered lands are managed, including where energy development is allowed or restricted. Biden''s North Dakota plan modified the prior 1988 plan by limiting oil and gas development in certain areas and restricting new coal leasing to areas within four miles of existing mines. According to supporters, the rule represents a federal land-use "lock up" that would limit access to domestic resources, threaten jobs and state revenues, and increase energy costs for families and businesses.
H.J.Res. 130Senate 2025-20261x

Restoring American Energy and Jobs by Reversing the Biden-Era Buffalo Plan that Shut Down Future Federal Coal Leasing.

With GOP
This resolution, sponsored by Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY), uses the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a former Biden administration rule implemented at the Bureau of Land Management titled "Buffalo Field Office Record of Decision and Approved Resource Management Plan Amendment" on November 20, 2024. The Biden-era rule made no federal coal available for future leasing in the Buffalo Field Office area, effectively ending future federal coal leasing in Wyoming''s Powder River Basin. By disapproving the 2024 rule, Congress would undo those restrictions and revert management back to the 2020 Trump-era plan, thus expanding the domestic energy supply.
H.J.Res. 131Senate 2025-20261x

Repealing the Biden-Era ANWR Coastal Plain Leasing Restrictions to Restore Domestic Energy Production and Lower Costs

With GOP
This resolution, sponsored by Rep. Nicholas Begich (R-AK), uses the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a former Biden administration rule implemented at the Bureau of Land Management titled "Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Leasing Program Record of Decision" on December 9, 2024. The Biden-era rule changed how oil and gas leasing can occur in the Coastal Plain program area within the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The Biden-era decision replaced the 2020 record of decision under the first Trump administration that had made the full 1.6 million acre program area available for leasing. The Biden-era decision made only 400,000 acres available for leasing (the statutory minimum) placing roughly 1.2 million acres off-limits.
H.J.Res. 20Senate 2025-20261x

Repealing a Biden Rule at the Department of Energy that Effectively Bans Popular Natural Gas Tankless Water Heaters

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Gary Palmer (R-AL), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Department of Energy rule titled "Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Consumer Gas-fired Instantaneous Water Heaters" and published on December 26, 2024. The underlying rule set new federal efficiency standards for gas-fired instantaneous (tankless) water heaters, including widely used non-condensing models. According to supporters, the rule was designed in a way that effectively pushes non-condensing units out of the market and forces homeowners and small businesses into more expensive options and complicated retrofits. They argue this is part of a broader regulatory playbook where Washington uses appliance rules to squeeze out natural gas products, shrinking consumer choice while raising costs for everyday replacements and home repairs.
H.J.Res. 24Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking Biden's Costly Walk-In Cooler and Freezer Energy Standards Mandate by Overturning a Department of Energy Rule

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Stephanie Bice (R-OK), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Department of Energy rule titled "Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Walk-In Coolers and Walk-In Freezers" and published on December 23, 2024. The underlying rule establishes new federal energy conservation standards for walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers commonly used by grocery stores, restaurants, warehouses, and other commercial facilities. According to supporters, the repeal of the Biden rule would stop Washington from using one-size-fits-all efficiency mandates to dictate the design and purchase of essential refrigeration equipment. They argue these mandates drive up compliance and replacement costs, squeeze small businesses, and ultimately raise prices for consumers as businesses are forced to absorb yet another layer of federal micromanagement.
H.J.Res. 25Senate 2025-20261x

Repealing a Biden IRS Rule that Grows Financial Surveillance Through Expanded Crypto "Broker" Reporting

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Mike Carey (R-OH), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal an Internal Revenue Service rule titled "Gross Proceeds Reporting by Brokers That Regularly Provide Services Effectuating Digital Asset Sales" and published on December 30, 2024. The underlying rule expands who the IRS treats as a "broker" for digital asset sales and would require covered entities to report gross proceeds and send new tax statements tied to crypto transactions. According to supporters, repealing the Biden rule would stop Washington from rewriting the definition of "broker" to sweep in parts of the digital asset economy that do not operate like traditional brokerages, including technology platforms that cannot realistically collect the personal data the rule demands. They argue the Biden rule is less about honest tax administration and more about building a new reporting regime that turns financial innovation into a compliance trap, pushing lawful activity overseas while increasing the federal government''s ability to monitor Americans'' economic lives.
H.J.Res. 35Senate 2025-20261x

Repealing Biden's EPA Methane Fee Rule That Grows Federal Penalties and Drives Up Domestic Energy Costs

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Environmental Protection Agency rule titled "Waste Emissions Charge for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems: Procedures for Facilitating Compliance, Including Netting and Exemptions" and published on November 18, 2024. The underlying rule sets the compliance framework for the federal "waste emissions charge," including how covered facilities calculate emissions, use "netting," and qualify for exemptions, with EPA positioned to assess penalties when standards are not met. According to supporters, this rule is the enforcement engine for a Washington created methane tax that punishes American oil and gas production, increases compliance burdens across the supply chain, and ultimately raises energy prices for families and job creators. They argue it hands regulators another tool to pressure domestic producers while making the U.S. less competitive and more dependent on foreign energy.
H.J.Res. 60Senate 2025-20261x

Overturning a Draconian Biden Rule that Banned Off-Road Vehicle Usage on Miles of Trails at Glen Canyon National Park.

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Mike Kennedy (R-UT), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden National Park Service rule titled "Glen Canyon National Recreation Area: Motor Vehicles" and published on January 13, 2025. The underlying rule revised special regulations for Glen Canyon to update and restrict where motor vehicles may be used on roads and off-road on designated routes and areas. According to supporters, the rule empowers federal land managers to tighten access through regulatory changes that can limit recreation, local use, and tourism-dependent communities while expanding Washington''s control over how Americans can use public lands. They argue Congress should stop this kind of federal overreach and keep access decisions from being driven by bureaucracy and pressure from activist groups rather than transparent, accountable policymaking.
H.J.Res. 61Senate 2025-20261x

Repealing a Biden EPA Rule that Imposed Costly New Emissions Mandates on U.S. Tire Manufactures.

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. H. Morgan Griffith (R-VA), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Environmental Protection Agency rule titled "National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Rubber Tire Manufacturing" and published on November 29, 2024. The underlying rule imposed new federal emissions standards on parts of the rubber tire manufacturing process and expanded EPA''s regulatory reach over domestic tire plants. According to supporters, repealing the Biden rule would stop Washington from piling more red tape and expensive compliance demands onto an industry that supports thousands of American jobs and produces an essential product used by nearly every household and business. They argue the mandate would raise production costs, squeeze smaller facilities the hardest, and push more manufacturing out of the United States.
H.J.Res. 75Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking Biden's Costly Commercial Refrigeration Energy Standards Mandate by Overturning a Department of Energy Rule

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Craig Goldman (R-TX), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Department of Energy rule titled "Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Commercial Refrigerators, Freezers, and Refrigerator-Freezers" and published on January 21, 2025. The underlying rule establishes new federal energy conservation standards for common commercial refrigeration equipment used by grocery stores, restaurants, convenience stores, and other businesses. According to supporters, the repeal of the Biden rule would stop Washington from using one-size-fits-all efficiency mandates to dictate what equipment businesses can buy and how much it must cost to comply. These types of federal standards often function as a hidden tax on everyday commerce by forcing expensive redesigns, accelerating replacement cycles, and raising operating and purchase costs that ultimately get passed on to consumers.
H.J.Res. 87Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking a De Facto National Zero Emission Truck Mandate by Overturning the Biden EPA's California Advanced Clean Trucks Waiver.

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. John James (R-MI), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Environmental Protection Agency notice titled "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine Pollution Control Standards; Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Engine Emission Warranty and Maintenance Provisions; Advanced Clean Trucks; Zero Emission Airport Shuttle; Zero-Emission Power Train Certification; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision" and published on April 6, 2023. The underlying action granted California a waiver to enforce regulations that drive heavy-duty vehicles and equipment toward government-directed "zero-emission" requirements and impose stricter warranty and maintenance mandates on diesel engines. By allowing one state to set the pace for manufacturers and other states, this waiver functions as a backdoor way to reshape the national truck market without Congress voting on the costs. Supporters argue the waiver raises prices for truckers and small businesses, threatens supply chain reliability, and hands regulators sweeping leverage to force an energy transition that working Americans did not choose.
H.J.Res. 88Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking California's Backdoor National EV Mandate by Overturning the Biden EPA's Advanced Clean Cars II Waiver

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. John Joyce (R-PA), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Environmental Protection Agency action granting California a waiver of federal preemption for its "Advanced Clean Cars II" program, published on December 18, 2024. By nullifying the waiver, the resolution would prevent California from enforcing emissions standards that effectively function as an electric vehicle sales mandate and that pressure automakers and other states to conform to California''s regulatory model. The waiver approach turns a single state''s preferences into a de facto national policy without a direct vote of Congress, raising costs for families, limiting consumer choice, and empowering regulators to reshape the auto market through executive action rather than legislation.
H.J.Res. 89Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking California's Draconian Heavy-Duty Diesel Emissions Mandate by Overturning a Biden EPA Action

With GOP
This joint resolution, introduced by Rep. Jay Obernolte (R-CA), would utilize the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to repeal a Biden Environmental Protection Agency action titled "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine and Nonroad Engine Pollution Control Standards; The ''Omnibus'' Low NOX Regulation; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision" and published on January 6, 2025. The underlying action granted California permission to enforce its Omnibus Low-NOx emissions program for heavy-duty engines and certain diesel equipment despite federal preemption under the Clean Air Act. By nullifying the waiver, the resolution would stop California from using federal approval to impose regulations that effectively drive a nationwide push toward stricter diesel requirements as manufacturers and other states are pressured to conform. According to supporters, the waiver is another example of Washington allowing one state to dictate energy and transportation policy for the entire country, raising vehicle and compliance costs, disrupting supply chains, and handing regulators more leverage to squeeze working families, truckers, farmers, and small businesses.
H.R. 1Senate 2025-20263x

Extending Tax Relief through the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act".

With GOP
This vote on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, introduced by Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-TX), is on the final version amended by the Senate, with Vice President JD Vance breaking the tie. The bill contained several positive provisions that extended the lower personal and corporate tax rates, as well as key estate and business tax provisions originally enacted within the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that were set to expire. The bill also contained provisions such as no tax on tips and overtime, a larger child tax credit, a car-loan interest deduction, and "Trump Accounts" seeded with a $1,000 federal contribution.
H.R. 1968 (Paul Amdt. 1266)Senate 2025-20263x

Cutting $16 Billion from USAID to Reduce Waste and End Taxpayer Funding of Politicized LGBTQ+ Initiatives.

Against GOP
The Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) amendment #1266 to the FY2025 appropriations bill would reduce the amount appropriated for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) by codifying the Trump administration''s foreign-aid reductions identified through Secretary Rubio and DOGE. The amendment would have saved taxpayers roughly $16 billion on an annualized basis by cutting back a foreign-aid bureaucracy that has long operated with weak oversight and a history of waste, fraud, and abuse. Supporters argued the cuts were especially urgent as DOGE has highlighted examples of taxpayer dollars being steered toward ideological advocacy and "woke" cultural projects abroad, including cited spending such as $2 million tied to "sex changes" and LGBT activism in Guatemala, thousands for an LGBT-themed opera project in Colombia, and a claimed grant connected to a transgender-themed comic initiative in Peru. Rather than continuing to fund these programs at prior-year levels, the amendment would have locked in reductions and redirected the savings toward lowering the deficit and debt.
H.R. 1968 (Van Hollen Amdt. 1272)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving Washington Waste by Defunding DOGE and Blocking Oversight of Fraudulent Spending Across Federal Agencies

With GOP
The Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) amendment #1272 to the FY2025 appropriations bill would prohibit the use of appropriated amounts by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), effectively defunding the federal waste-hunting effort in the middle of the fiscal year. DOGE''s work has highlighted the scale of routine mismanagement across the bureaucracy, including the Small Business Administration distributing more than $300 million in loans to thousands of children age 11 and younger, agencies paying for tens of thousands of unused software licenses, and the Department of Veterans Affairs spending $56,000 to water eight plants for five years. Opponents of the amendment argued that shutting down DOGE is an attempt to protect the status quo by stopping audits, transparency, and reforms that expose waste and force agencies to justify spending. With deficits surging and debt approaching crisis levels, they warned Congress should be expanding scrutiny of federal spending, not cutting off the very effort identifying abuses in real time.
H.R. 1 (Blackburn Amdt. 2764)Senate 2025-20261x

Closing the Medicaid Loophole that Lets Illegal Immigrants Receive Benefits Before Lawful Presence Is Verified

With GOP
The Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) amendment #2764 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would close a loophole that allows illegal immigrants to receive Medicaid coverage for up to 90 days by blocking federal taxpayer dollars from funding benefits for prospective beneficiaries until citizenship or lawful presence is verified. Under current practice, states can provide coverage during a verification window, creating a pathway for ineligible individuals to receive taxpayer-funded benefits before eligibility is confirmed. Supporters argued this is a basic integrity reform needed to protect Medicaid for lawful, vulnerable Americans and to stop the program from being exploited as a de facto benefit for those who are not eligible. They also pointed to the broader scale of Medicaid and federal health-program waste, noting estimates of more than $1 trillion in improper payments over the last decade, and argued that restoring integrity requires ending policies that invite abuse. In addition, supporters cited estimates that roughly 1.4 million illegal immigrants are currently exploiting Medicaid and argued that eligibility verification up front is a straightforward way to protect taxpayers and preserve resources for those who truly need care.
H.R. 1 (Collins Motion)Senate 2025-20263x

Worsening Wealth Redistribution by Hiking the Top Tax Rate to 39.6% to Fuel Greater Levels of Out-of-Control Health Spending and Cronyism

Against GOP
This vote was on the motion to advance the Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) amendment #2812 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill". The amendment would expand the Rural Health Transformation Program by increasing the Rural Healthcare Provider Fund from $20 billion to $50 billion and broadening eligibility beyond rural hospitals to include community health centers, nursing homes, ambulance services, skilled nursing facilities, and other providers tied to the Medicaid welfare system. Opponents warned the structure functions like a slush fund that states can utilize for unrelated initiatives, with weak accountability often enriching politically connected entities while failing to fix underlying access and integrity problems. To pay for the expansion, the amendment would raise the top individual income tax rate from 37 percent to 39.6 percent for individuals earning more than $25 million and couples earning more than $50 million, further deepening Washington''s cycle of higher taxes and bigger government healthcare spending.
H.R. 1 (Cornyn Amdt. 2771)Senate 2025-20261x

Penalizing States that Use Medicaid to Cover Criminal Aliens by Reducing Federal Subsidies for Violent and Sexual Offenders

With GOP
The Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) amendment #2771 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would reduce federal Medicaid funding to states that provide Medicaid coverage to illegal immigrants who have been convicted or charged with serious offenses, including sex offenses, human trafficking, domestic or child abuse, murder or manslaughter, or child pornography. Specifically, for Medicaid expanded states that provide coverage to these categories of illegal immigrants, the amendment would lower the federal reimbursement rate for the expansion population from 90 percent to 80 percent. Supporters contend states should not be rewarded with an enhanced federal match for policies that prioritize benefits for violent illegal immigrants over citizens and lawful residents, especially when Medicaid is already strained by waste, improper payments, and growing long-term costs.
H.R. 1 (Hirono Amdt. 2382)Senate 2025-20261x

Protecting School Choice by Rejecting an Effort to Eliminate K-12 Education Scholarships for Public, Private, or Religious Schools.

With GOP
The Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) amendment #2382 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would eliminate the bill''s program of qualified elementary and secondary education scholarships for public, private, or religious schools. The underlying scholarship framework is designed to let parents direct education resources toward the setting and services that best fit their child, rather than forcing families into one assigned system. By wiping out the program, the amendment would preserve the status quo where families have fewer options when schools fail to meet students'' needs and where bureaucracy and special interests face little competitive pressure to improve.
H.R. 1 (Kaine Motion)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking Federal Workforce Reforms by Creating a Veteran "Layoff Shield" that Protects Bureaucracy and Preserves Wasteful Jobs

With GOP
The Kaine motion to commit would send the "One Big Beautiful Bill" back to committee with instructions to add a provision prohibiting any federal agency, on or after January 20, 2025, from terminating more than 1 percent of its employees if any of the terminated employees is a veteran, unless the agency submits a detailed report to Congress at least 60 days in advance identifying the positions, number of employees, and the agency components affected. While framed as protecting veterans, the motion would function as a sweeping procedural barrier to federal downsizing because veterans make up more than 30 percent of the federal workforce, compared to roughly 6 percent of the overall workforce. Opponents argued this is an attempt to block efficiency efforts like DOGE by making it practically impossible for agencies to reduce headcount without political delays, even when positions are unnecessary or duplicative. They also noted veterans already receive hiring and retention preferences under existing law, and that taxpayer-funded jobs should not be preserved simply as a jobs program when the federal government is running enormous deficits and carrying a $39 trillion national debt.
H.R. 1 (Kennedy Amdt. 2775)Senate 2025-20261x

Empowering Parents and Making Homeschooling More Achievable by Expanding the Teacher Expense Deduction to Homeschool Educators

With GOP
The Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) amendment #2421 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would increase the above-the-line deduction for educators'' out-of-pocket classroom expenses from $250 to $600, updating an amount that has not been raised since 2002 to better reflect today''s average costs. Most notably, the amendment expands eligibility to include homeschool educators, allowing parents who teach their children at home to deduct qualifying education expenses as well up to the $600 limit. Supporters argued that homeschooling is one of the clearest expressions of parental rights and a direct check on government control over education. They also noted that making homeschooling more achievable provides major fiscal benefits to taxpayers by reducing pressure on public systems and avoiding higher government education spending, while giving families more freedom to pursue learning that fits their child''s needs and values.
H.R. 1 (Kim Amdt. 2817)Senate 2025-20261x

Enriching Hospitals and Unions by Striking Limits on Medicaid Payment Schemes that Inflate Costs for Patients and Taxpayers.

With GOP
The Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) amendment #2817 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would strike the bill''s provision limiting certain Medicaid payments. The underlying language was designed to rein in inflated Medicaid payment arrangements – often structured through state-directed payments and other supplemental payments – that allow states to engineer higher payouts on paper while shifting the costs onto federal taxpayers. Opponents warned these payment schemes function like a money-laundering pipeline inside Medicaid, rewarding politically connected hospitals and special interests while doing little to improve access or outcomes for patients. They also argued the system is routinely used to enrich union leadership and entrenched health-care bureaucracies by locking in higher spending streams and wage structures funded by taxpayers, rather than forcing reforms that prioritize beneficiaries.
H.R. 1 (Lee Amdt. 2745)Senate 2025-20263x

Ending the 2022 "Green New Scam" Subsidies by Terminating Wind and Solar Tax Credits.

Against GOP
The Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) amendment #2745 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would terminate wind and solar tax credits, cutting off the "green new scam" subsidies adopted in 2022 under the Inflation Reduction Act. The House-passed version of the bill eliminated these subsidies entirely, while the Senate version only partially rolled them back; this amendment would have completed the rollback by ending the remaining wind and solar credits. These credits have functioned as corporate welfare by steering investment toward projects built around federal tax advantages rather than reliability and consumer demand, enriching a subsidy sector that lobbies to keep the carveouts permanent.
H.R. 1 (Ossoff Amdt. 2696)Senate 2025-20261x

Permanently Expanding Obamacare Wealth Redistribution by Making the "Temporary" Enhanced Subsidies Permanent and Raising Taxes to Pay for It

With GOP
The Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) amendment #2696 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would extend the enhanced Obamacare premium tax credits and raise the top individual income tax rate from 37 percent to 39.6 percent for taxpayers with income of $5,000,000 ($10,000,000 married). These COVID-era subsidy boosts, created in 2021 and later extended by the Inflation Reduction Act only through 2025, removed the 400 percent of the federal poverty level cap on eligibility, allowing situations in which families earning up to $600,000 can receive taxpayer-funded subsidies. Opponents of the amendment argue the program is rife with fraud and waste, and insurers have been enriched because the enhanced subsidies are effectively paid directly to them. Making this "temporary" subsidy expansion permanent would further lock in an open-ended transfer system that grows federal control of healthcare and drives long-term spending and debt.
H.R. 1 (Sanders Amdt. 2435)Senate 2025-20261x

Expanding Medicare Entitlements While Worsening the Inflation Reduction Act Drug Price Controls

With GOP
The Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) amendment #2435 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill" would expand government control of healthcare by adding a major Medicare benefit expansion and escalating the Inflation Reduction Act''s drug-pricing scheme. On benefits, it would add Medicare coverage for dental, vision, and hearing services beginning January 1, 2028, including routine exams and cleanings, major dental work, dentures, eyeglasses, and hearing aids. On drugs, it would worsen the IRA''s price control regime by nearly tripling the number of drugs Medicare is required to "negotiate," meaning more medicines would be subjected to government coercion backed by massive excise-tax style penalties. It also codifies a Most Favored Nation-style price control scheme that pegs U.S. drug prices to a median price in other countries, importing foreign rationing and allowing international systems to effectively shape what treatments Americans can access. Opponents argued the amendment would grow entitlement spending, expand federal micromanagement of medical decisions, and undermine innovation and patient access by spreading coercive price caps across a much wider share of the drug market.
H.R. 1 (Warren Amdt. 2414)Senate 2025-20261x

Blocking a Provision that Reins in the Unaccountable Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Restores Congressional Oversight of the Rogue Regulator.

With GOP
This vote was on a motion to advance the Sen. Elizabeth Warren''s (D-MA) amendment #2414 to the "One Big Beautiful Bill". The Warren amendment would strike the bill''s provision reducing the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau''s funding cap from 12 percent to 6.5 percent, preserving the CFPB''s unusually insulated funding stream outside the normal appropriations process. The underlying bill''s reduction still leaves the agency with substantial resources to carry out its statutory mandate, and the cap continues to grow each year as it is adjusted for inflation. Opponents of the Warren amendment argued the CFPB has become a powerful, unaccountable regulator that uses "regulation by enforcement," targets disfavored industries, and operates with minimal democratic checks, and that reducing its automatic funding is a measured step toward curbing bureaucratic overreach while still allowing legitimate consumer protection work.
H.R. 23Senate 2025-20262x

Defending U.S. and Israeli Sovereignty by Sanctioning the International Criminal Court for Targeting Non-Member Nations

With GOP
The "Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act," introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), would impose sanctions related to the International Criminal Court (ICC) when it attempts to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute "protected persons" of the United States and certain U.S. allies that have not consented to ICC jurisdiction. The bill requires visa- and property-blocking sanctions on foreign persons who materially assist such ICC actions, and it also applies visa restrictions to certain immediate family members, while rescinding and restricting U.S. funding for the ICC. In part, the legislation responds to the ICC''s escalating actions against Israel after, in November 2024, the ICC announced arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on baseless charges of "war crimes" and "crimes against humanity." According to supporters, this is about stopping an unaccountable international tribunal from trying to police Americans and key allies from the outside, even though the United States never granted the ICC authority over our citizens and Israel is not subject to its jurisdiction either.
H.R. 4Senate 2025-20262x

Cutting $9.4 Billion in Wasteful Foreign Aid and Federal Propaganda Subsidies Through a Targeted Rescissions Package.

With GOP
The Rescissions Act of 2025, introduced by Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA), would rescind $9.4 billion in previously appropriated but unobligated funding pursuant to President Trump''s June 3, 2025 rescissions request under the Impoundment Control Act. The bill would cancel funds from the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development accounts, along with rescissions affecting related entities and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (NPR and PBS). The rescissions target categories such as contributions to international organizations, global health programs, migration, various foreign assistance and stabilization funds, and climate-related international funding. According to supporters, this measure is a first step to rein in entrenched Washington spending, stop sending taxpayer dollars to overseas programs that often lack accountability, and end subsidizing media institutions that have grown dependent on federal funding while advancing biased narratives.
H.R. 4 (Kaine Motion)Senate 2025-20261x

Channeling $1.3 Billion in Taxpayer Funding to Catholic and Other Religious Entities Facilitating Mass Illegal Immigration Across America.

With GOP
The Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) motion to recommit the Rescissions Act of 2025 would have sent the bill back to the Committee on Appropriations (delaying advancement for 3 days) with instructions requiring the bill to return with no cuts affecting faith-based organizations funded through the International Development account and the Migration and Refugee Assistance account. The Kaine motion would have blocked the rescission of $800,000,000 from Migration and Refugee Assistance and $496,000,000 from International Development-related foreign-aid funding, amounts that represent roughly 25 percent of the total targeted funding in these accounts. Opponents of the motion argued the rescissions were necessary to defund Catholic Relief Services and other religious-affiliated entities that were unlawfully using taxpayer dollars to help illegal immigrants avoid federal enforcement, effectively turning federal spending into a pipeline that undermines the rule of law. They warned the motion would preserve a large, hard-to-audit funding stream and keep Washington''s foreign-aid machinery on autopilot even after the spending had been identified for cancellation.
H.R. 4 (Markey Motion to Recommit)Senate 2025-20261x

Restoring NPR/PBS Subsidies that Push Radical Gender Ideology on Children and Compete with the Private Sector

With GOP
The Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) motion to recommit the Rescissions Act of 2025 would require the bill to come back (following a 3 day delay) with no rescissions that would reduce access to children''s educational programming through public television stations. In effect, it would protect the Corporation for Public Broadcasting from the bill''s roughly $1.1 billion rescission for FY2026 and FY2027 (about $535 million per year), keeping federal subsidies flowing to the public media system that underwrites PBS stations and PBS Kids programming. Opponents of the motion argued that taxpayers should not be forced to bankroll a public broadcasting system that has promoted politicized content for children, including airing a segment featuring a drag performer reading "The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish," and other programming that normalizes contested gender and sexuality themes for young audiences. They also emphasized that, regardless of content disputes, federal subsidies for broadcasting are an unnecessary government role that crowds out private and local alternatives in a media marketplace already saturated with children''s programming.
H.R. 4 (Murkowski Amdt. 2865)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving Wasteful Spending by Rejecting the Rescission of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (NPR/PBS).

With GOP
The Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) amendment #2865 to the Rescissions Act of 2025, would rewrite the bill''s Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) rescission language. Instead of rescinding CPB''s full funding, the amendment would permanently rescind only $8,330,000 from CPB''s FY2026 allocation and $8,330,000 from CPB''s FY2027 allocation. In other words, it would preserve nearly all taxpayer funding for public broadcasting while making only a token reduction. Opponents of the amendment argued this carveout would gut one of the most visible waste-cutting provisions in the rescissions package and keep federal subsidies flowing to taxpayer-funded media that should stand on its own. They also warned it sends the wrong message at a time when Washington is finally being pressed to claw back nonessential spending, because it protects a politically favored institution while families are being told to accept higher debt, higher prices, and a government that refuses to shrink.
H.R. 4 (Rosen Amdt. 2878)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving Foreign Abortion Funding by Rejecting the $500 Million Rescission of Global Health "Family Planning" Programs

With GOP
The Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) amendment #2878 to the Schmitt substitute to H.R. 4, the Rescissions Act of 2025, would strike the rescission of $500,000,000 in funds appropriated for Global Health programs, including family planning and reproductive health. The rescission was designed to stop U.S. taxpayer dollars from continuing to flow through overseas global health accounts that have been used to support abortion-related programming and to subsidize organizations that promote abortion abroad. Keeping this funding intact entrenches a politically driven spending stream overseas while Washington continues to borrow and spend at historic levels. Opponents of the amendment argued Congress should follow through on the rescission and return the money to the Treasury rather than protecting a foreign spending pipeline tied to abortion advocacy.
H.R. 4 (Shaheen Amdt. 2898)Senate 2025-20261x

Preserving Wasteful Foreign-Aid Spending by Rejecting the $460 Million Rescission of the Europe/Eurasia/Central Asia Account.

Against GOP
The Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) amendment #2898 to the Schmitt substitute to H.R. 4, the Rescissions Act of 2025, would reduce the amount rescinded from the Assistance to Europe, Eurasia, and Central Asia account, blocking the package''s $460,000,000 rescission. This account has funded a wide range of nonessential overseas initiatives that have little to do with core U.S. responsibilities and are difficult for taxpayers to track or audit. Examples highlighted by opponents include $300,000 for promoting tourism in the Caucasus, $832,000 to fund social media mentorship in Serbia and Belarus, and $5,000,000 for "green transportation and logistics."
H.R. 5371 (Merkley Motion)Senate 2025-20261x

Mandating the Trump Administration Waste Taxpayer Funds by Forcing Washington to Spend on Every Program – Even If Unneeded

With GOP
This motion by Sen. Jeff Merkley (R-OR) would table (defeat) the Sen. John Thune (R-SD) amendment #3946 to amendment #3945 to H.R. 5371, the Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026. In practice, this vote became a fight over whether Congress should use procedural games to introduce an amendment that would box in the executive branch. Sen. Merkley was attempting to force the Trump administration to spend every dollar appropriated within the $27 billion dollar package, thus halting a practice deployed by the administration to not spend on items or programs identified as wasteful, so that at the end of the year, Congress could rescind the funds. This motion undermines efforts to shrink bureaucracy and stop the "use it or lose it" spending spree that drives enormous government waste.
S. 1582Senate 2025-20261x

Creating a Backdoor "Layered" CBDC by Building a Federal Stablecoin Regime that Threatens Self-Custody and Financial Privacy

Against GOP
The GENIUS Act, introduced by Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN), would establish a federal regulatory framework for "payment stablecoins," including who may issue them, what reserves must back them, and what compliance, reporting, and supervisory requirements apply. The bill would concentrate stablecoin issuance inside a permitted, heavily regulated ecosystem and tie the day-to-day use of stablecoins to strict identity verification and ongoing compliance obligations. While stablecoins are often marketed as a private alternative to a central bank digital currency, this framework can still produce a government-shaped digital money system because the rails would be built around surveillance-style controls and permissioned access. Opponents argue the bill effectively enables a "layered" CBDC by pushing Americans into regulated intermediaries, leaving self-custody and the right to hold and manage digital assets outside those intermediaries unclear and unprotected. They also warn that the compliance model encourages stablecoin issuers to rely on large-scale data aggregation and AI analytics vendors to monitor transactions and user behavior, raising concerns that surveillance tools commonly used in government contracting could be repurposed to track, profile, or restrict lawful financial activity.
S. 2296 (Curtis Amdt. 3697)Senate 2025-20261x

Reforming Federal Locality Pay to Stop Inflated Pay Formulas and Protect Taxpayers

With GOP
The Sen. John Curtis (R-UT) amendment #3697 to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, would require a review of the methodologies used to determine locality-based comparability payments and direct the President''s Pay Agent to conduct a pilot program establishing alternative models for setting those locality pay amounts. The amendment focuses on how Washington calculates and justifies locality adjustments that drive federal payroll costs and are often treated as automatic. Supporters argue the current system relies on opaque assumptions and outdated labor-market comparisons that can overstate pay gaps and lock in higher compensation long after conditions change. They contend this review-and-pilot approach is a practical way to bring sunlight and accountability to a costly pay-setting process and test better models before policymakers rubber-stamp continued growth in federal compensation.
S. 2296 (Duckworth Amdt. 3210)Senate 2025-20261x

Handcuffing the Trump Administration''s Law-and-Order Response by Restricting Military Support for Border Security and Domestic Stabilization

With GOP
The Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) amendment #3210 to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026, would limit the provision of support by the Armed Forces to civilian law enforcement activities. It would require the executive branch to notify Congress and justify in writing before providing access to military equipment, including surveillance equipment, bases, or facilities to support law enforcement, and it would require congressional approval to extend any such support longer than 30 days. Opponents to this amendment argue it would make it harder for President Trump to use available tools to restore law and order in cities and support border security operations, even when civilian agencies request help and the military is acting in a support role. They also contend the amendment is aimed at obstructing recent Trump administration efforts to reassert enforcement after failed criminal justice reforms that contributed to spikes in violent crime and after years of federal nonenforcement of immigration law.
