My Opponent

HR 7909 Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this single-issue legislation because it amended the existing Immigration and Nationality Act to restrict entry into the U.S. and deport any alien who has been convicted of domestic violence, stalking, child abuse/neglect/abandonment and violations of protection orders.

HR 8281 Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (requires voters to provide proof of citizenship)

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation. It is incumbent upon our elected officials to ensure and uphold and represent our rights as U.S. citizens to individually vote our conscious, and to ensure voting integrity.

HR 8790 Fix Our Forests Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this single-issue legislation because it improved forest management activities on National Forest, public, and tribal lands to return resilience to overgrown, fire-prone forested lands.

HR 7511 Laken Riley Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation. It required the Secretary of Homeland Security to take into custody non-citizens who have been charged in the United States with theft. What this the motivation for anyone to vote to reward a thief?

HR 7700 Unaffordable Dishwasher Stds Act, HR 7637 Refrigerator Freedom Act & HR 6192 Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of all of this legislation. Essential appliances are becoming unaffordable for the non-wealthy because unelected bureaucrats are prescribing regulations that require manufacturers to use emerging and/or costly technologies that exponentially increase costs that get passed-on to consumers.

HR 6918 Supporting Pregnant & Parenting Women and Families Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation because it provides a choice to individual states to decide whether or not they want to use Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funding for pregnancy centers that offer resources and services to mothers, fathers, and families, including relationship counseling, prenatal and pregnancy education, pregnancy testing, diapers, baby clothes.

HR 6678 Consequences for Social Security Fraud Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation because Social Security funding for U.S. citizens is already at risk. This would have required the deportation of non-citizens that knowingly committed fraud to collect Social Security benefits.

HR 615 Protecting Access for Hunters and Anglers Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation because it provided for documented environmental exceptions, and prevented governmental agencies from banning or regulating the use of lead ammunition or tackle on federal land or waterways.

HR 485 Protecting Health Care for All Patients Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

 I would have voted in favor of this legislation because it prohibits federal health care programs (including Medicaid) from coverage & pricing discrimination based upon quality-adjusted life years (government decides value of a life based on disability, age, or terminal illness).

HR 3334 STOP CCP Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this single-issue legislation because it imposes Visa and property-blocking sanctions on any member of the Chinese Communist Party that plays a significant role in violating the autonomy of Hong Kong; harass or intimidate the people of Taiwan; or contributes to the oppression of individuals/groups within China, (e.g. Falun Gong, Uyghur Muslims, etc.).

HR 8774 Department of Defense Appropriations Act

 I would have voted in favor of this legislation because it funds the salaries of our military personnel (all branches), operational maintenance costs, counter-ISIS training & equipment, etc.

HR 8752 Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation because funding our Intelligence, Analysis & Situational Awareness, Border Protection, Coast Guard, Secret Service and related agencies is paramount to ensuring safety and security in our country and its citizens.

HR 8580 Military Construction, Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation because it funds VA Medical Centers (including the familial-named John D. Dingell Medical Center in Detroit), and also included; Military family housing maintenance (all branches), National Cemetery Administration & cemeterial expenses, Armed Forces Retirement Home, and more.

HR 8146 Police Our Border Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation. Existing immigration laws exist but they are not being followed. Whether northern or southern borders, suspected terrorist entry is up 2,500%, fentanyl deaths and human trafficking are now an epidemic, and all types of non-citizen crime is skyrocketing

HR 7343 Detain & Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation. If the offender would attack an officer, what would they do to defenseless citizens? What this the motivation for anyone to vote to reward an offender that attacked someone in law enforcement that protects and serves U.S. citizens?

HR 5921 No U.S. Financing for Iran Act

Dingell Voted: NO!

I would have voted in favor of this legislation. Iran is a known state sponsor of terrorism and this would have prohibited certain actions related to exports, imports, and financing.

HR 8070 Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement & National Defense Authorization Act

Dingell Voted: Didn’t bother to vote!

I would have showed up for work and voted in favor of this legislation because it funds military pay, health care and operational maintenance, national cyber security (90% cite urgent action required including software anomalies), nuclear facility defense/safety, matters relating for foreign nations, etc.
