H.R. 5430

Impeachment (Article II – Obstruction of Congress)

We oppose. The "obstruction of Congress" charge does not rise to the level of the "high crimes and misdemeanors" for which a president may be impeached and removed. There is uncontestable truth to the charge: Trump did direct the executive branch to ignore subpoenas issued by highly partisan, pro-impeachment House committees. What is contested is whether a president may constitutionally ignore such subpoenas. But that is an issue for the federal judiciary, not impeachment, to decide.

H.R. 755

Impeachment (Article I – Abuse of Power)

We oppose. In his actions on Ukraine, Trump did not commit "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors," the constitutional requirement for impeaching and removing a president or other U.S. "civil officer." The House presented no evidence of any "high crimes." Trump was accused of withholding aid from Ukraine, but the aid was provided. Also, there is no crime in making a request to investigate Hunter Biden and Burisma, as was alleged.

H.R. 755

Appropriations

We oppose. Many programs within this defense-related minibus are unconstitutional. This bill also is fiscally irresponsible, considering the $26 trillion national debt and projected $3.8 trillion budget deficit.

H.R. 1158

Appropriations

We oppose. Most of the spending programs in this appropriations bill are unconstitutional. Also, congressional spending for fiscal 2020 is grossly fiscally irresponsible. In mid-2020, our national debt was about $26 trillion, and the federal budget deficit for 2020 was expected to be an astounding $3.8 trillion.

H.R. 1865

Short-term Appropriations

We oppose. Congress is failing to address its fiscally- and constitutionally-irresponsible budgeting and appropriating process that is yielding annual federal deficits of about $1 trillion. This directly contributes to the national debt's growth.

H R 4378

Budget Deal

We oppose. Spending must be brought under control, and deficits must be eliminated to avoid fiscal disaster - not "down the road," but now. Additionally, much of the bill's spending is unconstitutional.

On Agreeing to the Amendment 33 to H R 2500

Would prohibit indefinite military detention of any person (including Americans). Indefinite detention without trial violates habeas corpus.

H R 2500

Disaster Supplemental Appropriations

We oppose. The federal government has no constitutional authority to rebuild areas stricken by natural disasters. Such activity should be undertaken by private companies and charities first, and, as a last resort, handled by local or state governments. Disasters would arguably be handled more effectively this way compared to the feds.

Equality Act

Expands definition of protected classes in federal law to include "gender identity." Males who identify as females would be able to use public restrooms of the opposite sex - and vice versa.

H R 5

Paris Agreement

Would prohibit the use of federal funds for withdrawal from the Paris Agreement. Fulfilling the agreement would stifle U.S. economy without impacting on alleged man-made global warming.

H R 9

Yemen

We support. Congress is vested with the power to declare war, and it has not authorized any intervention or war in Yemen. Nor should Congress do so since the civil war in Yemen does not threaten the U.S.

Firearms Background Checks

Extends federal background checks to private sales, severely and unconstitutionally infringing on the right to keep and bear arms.

Public Lands

We oppose. The Constitution does not authorize Congress to purchase private property except "all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings."
