Overturning a Biden Administration Rule Making it Cost Prohibitive for Banks to Hold Crypto-Currencies for their Customers.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

This resolution introduced by Rep. Mike Flood (R-NE) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022, titled "Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121". This rule requires financial institutions and firms that are safeguarding their customers' digital assets (such as crypto-currency) to hold the assets on their balance sheet. The rule has received criticism due to the fact the regulations makes it cost prohibitive for banks and other financial institutions to serve as custodians for digital assets.
Chapter 3 – Build the Greatest Economy in History – Section #5 – Champion Innovation – Crypto: Republicans will end Democrats’ unlawful and unAmerican Crypto crackdown and oppose the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency. We will defend the right to mine Bitcoin, and ensure every American has the right to self-custody of their Digital Assets, and transact free from Government Surveillance and Control.

This rule, which requires roughly 70% of new car and truck sales to be electric in less than 10 years, imposes much stricter emission standards for cars and light-duty trucks.
Chapter 5 – Protect American Workers and Farmers from Unfair Trade – Section #3 – Save the American Auto Industry: Republicans will revive the U.S. Auto Industry by reversing harmful Regulations, canceling Biden’s Electric Vehicle and other Mandates, and preventing the importation of Chinese vehicles.

Mary Miller (R-IL) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule issued by the Department of Education on April 29, 2024, titled "Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance". This Title IX rule adds "gender identity" as a protected class under the anti-sex discrimination law. According to the sponsor, the rule removes female-only spaces such as locker rooms, bathrooms, and other sex-separated areas while also allowing biological males to compete within women's sports and organizations.
Chapter 9 – Government of, By and For the People – Section #5 – Republicans Will End Left-wing Gender Insanity: We will keep men out of women’s sports, ban Taxpayer funding for sex change surgeries, and stop Taxpayer-funded Schools from promoting gender transition, reverse Biden’s radical rewrite of Title IX Education Regulations, and restore protections for women and girls.

Providing Full Federal Recognition of the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina through the "Lumbee Fairness Act".

Against GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Lumbee Fairness Act" sponsored by Rep. David Rouzer (R-NC) would extend federal recognition to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina and makes its members eligible for a series of services and new federal financial benefits. The Tribe has about 60,000 members and was granted partial federal recognition in 1956. On January 23, 2025, President Trump signed a memorandum directing the Secretary of the Interior to produce a plan within 90 days to help the Lumbee Tribe obtain full federal recognition.
Chapter 9 – Government of, By and For the People – Section #7 – Republicans Will Protect Americans in the Territories: The territories of Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico are of vital importance to our National Security, and we welcome their greater participation in all aspects of the political process.

Advancing the Elimination of $1.34 Trillion of Biden Administration Regulations through the "Midnight Rules Relief Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Midnight Rules Relief Act" sponsored by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) allows Congress to disapprove multiple regulations under one joint resolution of disapproval if the regulations were submitted for review during the last 60 legislative days of the final year of a President's term. Currently, each joint resolution may disapprove of only one regulation. According to the sponsor, the bill "allows Congress to rein in unelected bureaucrats. Biden's bureaucrats imposed more than $1.34 trillion in regulations in 2024 alone."
Chapter 3 – Build the Greatest Economy in History – Section #1 – Cut Regulations: Republicans will slash Regulations that stifle Jobs, Freedom, Innovation and make everything more expensive. We will implement Transparency and Common Sense in rulemaking.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

This resolution introduced by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) holds U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for defying two congressional subpoenas from the House Committees on Judiciary and Oversight & Accountability. The subpoenas demanded the recordings of President Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur, who was investigating the president's handling of classified documents. The measure also fines Garland $10,000 for each day he continues to defy the congressional subpoenas.
Chapter 9 – Government Of, By, and For the People – Section #1 – Republicans Will Stop Woke and Weaponized Government: We will hold accountable those who have misused the power of Government to unjustly prosecute their Political Opponents.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Protect America's Innovation and Economic Security from CCP Act" sponsored by Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) would reestablish the "China Initiative" at the Department of Justice (DOJ), which the Biden administration ended in 2022. Under the bill, the program is renamed the "CCP Initiative" and will (1) counter nation-state threats to the United States; (2) curb spying by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on U.S. intellectual property and academic institutions; (3) identify and prosecute individuals engaged in trade secret theft, hacking, and economic espionage; and (4) protect U.S. critical infrastructure from foreign threats.

Ensuring Americans Maintain Control over Public Health Policy and Not the World Health Organization Through the "No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act" sponsored by Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) would require any agreement on pandemic prevention or response reached by the World Health Organization (WHO) to be approved by a two-thirds majority of the U.S. Senate. According to the sponsor, the bill is aimed at protecting American sovereignty against the WHO. Support is Republican Governors Association's position as this measure helps ensure Americans remain in control over the public health policy of our nation and not globalist entities which do not place the interest of Americans first.
Chapter 10 – Return to Peace through Strength – Section #1 – The National Interest: Republicans will promote a Foreign Policy centered on the most essential American Interests, starting with protecting the American Homeland, our People, our Borders, our Great American Flag, and our Rights under God.
"So we paid $500 million to World Health when I was here and I terminated it… They offered me to come back for $39 million… I refused them… Pretty sad though. Think of it. China pays $39 million and we pay $500 million… Think of it." – President Donald J. Trump

Advancing American Energy Dominance by Requiring the Department of Interior to Hold More Frequent Lease Sales and Speed up the Permitting Process through the "CLEAN Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Committing Leases for Energy Access Now (CLEAN) Act" sponsored by Rep. Russ Fulcher (R-ID) would require the Department of Interior (DOI) to hold lease sales every year, rather than every two years. Additionally, the bill helps speed up the permit process for lease sales by setting a 30-day deadline for the DOI to notify an applicant if a permit has been approved. According to the sponsor, the bill "will hold the Department of Interior accountable and is key to bolstering domestic energy production, reducing our reliance on foreign adversaries and meeting America's growing energy demands."
Chapter 1 – Defeat Inflation and Quickly Bring Down All Prices – Section #1 – Unleash American Energy: Republicans will unleash Energy Production from all sources, including nuclear, to immediately slash Inflation and power American homes, cars, and factories with reliable, abundant, and affordable Energy.

Obstructing American Energy Production through Significant Additional Delays and Requirements for Geothermal Permits by Amending the "CLEAN Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Oppose

The Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ) amendment #1 to the "Committing Leases for Energy Access Now (CLEAN) Act" would enact significant delays in the permitting process for geothermal drilling. Under the bill, the timeline for an agency to respond to a project applicant on whether their geothermal drilling permit application is complete or deficient would triple. Additionally, the amendment would make the overall permitting process for geothermal resources more than 9 times longer than it would take for oil and gas, in part due to new review requirements connected to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Finally, the amendment would provide new authority for the Bureau of Land Management to deny geothermal permits in the final stages of the permitting process.

This resolution, sponsored by Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX) condemns President Joseph Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and 13 other individuals for their role in the Afghanistan withdrawal and noncombatant evacuation operation. Tragically, 13 service members lost their lives and over $7 billion in U.S. military equipment was transferred to the Taliban and other terrorist groups.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "DHS Restrictions on Confucius Institutes and Chinese Entities of Concern Act" sponsored by Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) would prevent funding from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) from being provided to any college or university that has a relationship with a Confucius Institute (a cultural institute directly or indirectly funded by the Chinese government). According to the sponsor, "the Chinese Community Party is utilizing Confucius Institutes to infiltrate American university campuses and engage in espionage, steal intellectual property, intimidate Chinese dissidents, promote communist propaganda, and funnel sensitive information back to the People's Liberation Army". Support is Republican Governors Association's position as taxpayers should not be forced to pay for the educations of individuals who chose to enroll in colleges and universities, especially entities which partner with one of America's top adversaries, the CCP.

Advancing an "America Last" Agenda by Spending $40 Million to Promote Human Rights in North Korea.

Against GOP

GOP Platform Position: Oppose

The "North Korean Human Rights Reauthorization Act of 2023" sponsored by Rep. Young Kim (R-CA) would reauthorize through FY2028 various activities to promote human rights in North Korea at an estimated cost of $41 million. This includes funding select non-profit organizations to "promote human rights, democracy, rule of law, and the development of a market economy in North Korea". This bill advances an "America last" agenda which places initiatives in foreign nations above the needs of Americans, all while forcing taxpayers to enrich government-favored non-profits.

Growing Government Bureaucracy through the "DHS Cybersecurity On-the-Job Training Program Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Oppose

The "DHS Cybersecurity On-the-Job Training Program Act" sponsored by Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee (D-TX) would impose new mandates within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which require employees holding non-cybersecurity positions within the department, to be trained in matters relating to cybersecurity. The bill requires the program curriculum to be consistent with the "National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education Framework" and is expected to cost $1 million annually to implement (not including lost employee time). There are already countless existing initiatives surrounding cybersecurity across the federal government. President Trump's proposed FY 2026 budget included significant cuts to bloated cybersecurity-related bureaucracy, including a cut of nearly 20% to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the elimination of hundreds of positions.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "End Woke Higher Education Act" sponsored by Rep. Burgess Owens (R-UT) bars accrediting organizations from requiring colleges and universities to adopt diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies as a condition of accreditation. Additionally, an accrediting organization must confirm that its standards do not prohibit an institution of higher education from having a religious mission. According to the sponsor, the bill will "stand up for academic freedom, defend students' constitutional rights, and ensure that colleges and universities aren't forced to bend the knee to activist accreditors pushing political agendas as a condition for federal funding". On January 21, 2025, President Trump signed an Executive Order requiring federally funded colleges and universities to end all race and gender-based initiatives.
Chapter 8 – Bring Common Sense to Government and Renew the Pillars of American Civilization – Section #5 – Make Colleges and Universities Sane and Affordable: Republicans will fire Radical Left accreditors, drive down Tuition costs, restore Due Process protections, and pursue Civil Rights cases against Schools that discriminate.

Combatting Politicized ESG Rules within the SEC through the "Prioritizing Economic Growth Over Woke Policies Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Prioritizing Economic Growth Over Woke Policies Act" sponsored by Rep. Bill Huizenga (R-MI) is said to address the threats environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives pose to the American financial system. Most notably, the bill makes changes to SEC disclosure regulations to ensure companies are only required to disclose material information (not ESG) and requires the SEC to publicly list and explain any non-material disclosure demands. According to the sponsor, "rogue Democrat-appointed regulators are forcing companies to waste their limited time and resources on ESG mandates that have little to do with a firm's financial performance".

The "Anti-BDS Labeling Act" sponsored by Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) would codify a Trump-era trade rule clarifying labeling requirements for goods and whether the item was imported from Israel, the Gaza Strip (Hamas-controlled), or the West Bank (independent of Israel). According to the sponsor, "American families should have this information in order to buy products that support Israel's economy - particularly in a time of war. Conversely, people should know if an item comes from a region controlled by terrorists that kidnapped and killed their fellow Americans."

Nick LaLota (R-NY) appropriates $65 million annually through 2028 for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to carry out programs to restore and protect the environmental health of the Long Island Sound located south of Connecticut and north of Long Island. In 1985, Congress created the Long Island Sound Study (LISS) to identify and address the major environmental problems affecting the Long Island Sound and last reauthorized the program for five years in 2018. President Trump's FY?2018 budget blueprint targeted the EPA’s geographic restoration programs - including the Long Island Sound Initiative - for elimination, proposing to cut their funding entirely.

Strengthening Enforcement of Federal Immigration Law through the "No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act" sponsored by Rep. Nick LaLota (R-NY) would deny state and local entities with federal funding intended for non-U.S. nationals if they enact sanctuary policies or fail to cooperate with federal immigration detainers. According to the sponsor, the bill "ensures that federal dollars will not be used to offset costs incurred by prioritizing illegal immigration, and migrants' free hotels and health care, over the safety and well-being of law-abiding tax-paying citizens".
Chapter 2 – Seal the Border, and Stop the Migrant Invasion – Section #5 – Stop Sanctuary Cities: Republicans will cut federal Funding to sanctuary jurisdictions that release dangerous Illegal Alien criminals onto our streets, rather than handing them over to ICE.

The "Next Generation Pipelines Research and Development Act" sponsored by Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX) creates new spending programs for researching and developing advanced technologies and materials for natural gas pipelines. Under the bill, the Department of Energy (DOE) will award financial grants to select companies "involved in the development of next generation pipeline systems, components, and related technologies". In April of 2025, the Trump administration significantly slashed nearly $10 billion of similar research and development grants to the one proposed in this act at the DOE. Note: The lawmakers who opposed the bill due to their opposition of fossil fuels were also recorded as opposing the Republican position.

The "Autism CARES Act of 2024" sponsored by Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) increases spending on federal autism programs by $279 million and authorizes $2.1 billion in total spending over the next five years. Much of the spending is directed towards research at the National Institute for Health (NIH). This includes expanding the number of centers of excellence dedicated to autism from five to seven, with the new centers focusing on behavioral support needs and "health equity issues". According to a Reuters analysis of NIH data, during the first four months of 2025, the Trump Administratin reduced funding for autism-related research to a level that is 26% lower than the prior four-year average, largely targeting spending on DEI and gender ideology.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Refrigerator Freedom Act" sponsored by Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) places limits on the authority of the Department of Energy (DOE) to impose energy conservation standards for refrigerators and freezers unless DOE can prove the standards are economically justified and not likely to result in additional net costs to consumers. The bill is in response to DOE's own analysis that found the efficiency mandates of the Biden administration could increase the upfront costs on refrigerators and freezers by 25% and it could take consumers 10 years to payback the increased costs for a product that may only last 14-15 years. May 9, 2025, President Trump signed a resolution under the Congressional Review Act that repealed new DOE energy-efficiency standards for commercial refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerator?freezers.
Chapter 3 – Build the Greatest Economy in History – Section #4 – Lower Everyday Costs: Republicans will reduce the Regulatory burden, lower Energy costs, and promote Economic Policies that drive down the cost of living and prices for everyday goods and services.

Strengthening Public Safety by Deporting Immigrants who Commit Sex Offenses through the "Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act" sponsored by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) would make immigrants who lack permanent legal status "inadmissible" to the country and "deportable" if they have admitted to committing or have been convicted of sex offenses or domestic violence. Under current law, a non-U.S. national is deportable for certain criminal convictions, including domestic violence, stalking, and child abuse. The bill makes any sex offense (including crimes against minors) or conspiracy to commit a sex offense a basis for deportation. The bill also expands the domestic violence crimes that make a non-U.S. national deportable to include physical or sexual abuse or a pattern of coercive behavior when it occurs within certain close relationships.
Chapter 2 – Seal the Border, and Stop the Migrant Invasion – Section #2 – Enforce Immigration Laws: Republicans will strengthen ICE, increase penalties for illegal entry and overstaying Visas, and reinstate

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "End Chinese Dominance of Electric Vehicles in America Act of 2024" sponsored by Rep. Carol Miller (R-WV) would make electric vehicles utilizing battery technology licensed from China ineligible for federal EV tax credit. Specifically, the bill tightens the Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) definition for the 30D electric vehicle (EV) tax credit as well as closes the "billionaire and Chinese manufacturing loopholes" which provide Chinese companies and business owners with subsidy benefits. The bill is in response to plans by Ford, General Motors and other manufactures to license technology from China's Contemporary Amperex Technology Co Ltd (CATL) to produce lithium-ion batteries.
Chapter 5 – Protect American Workers and Farmers from Unfair Trade – Section #3 – Save the American Auto Industry: Republicans will revive the U.S. Auto Industry by reversing harmful Regulations, canceling Biden’s Electric Vehicle and other Mandates, and preventing the importation of Chinese vehicles.

Combatting Lawless Criminal Justice Reforms and Bail Policies through the "Keeping Violent Offenders Off Our Streets Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "Keeping Violent Offenders Off Our Streets Act" sponsored by Rep. Scott Fitzgerald (R-WI) would combat radical bail policies by ensuring judges and prosecutors know a defendant's criminal history, while also bring accountability to the bail system. Specifically, the bill would allow state and local jurisdictions to use Byrne grant funding to develop and maintain a public safety report for each defendant charged with a violent offense and report this information to the National Crime Information Center (NCIC). The legislation would also define bail bonds as an "insurance product" to require compliance with federal insurance fraud laws and background check requirements - thus preventing "bail crowdsourcing".
Chapter 8 – Bring Common Sense to Government and Renew the Pillars of American Civilization – Section #2 – Rebuild Our Cities and Restore Law and Order: Republicans will restore safety in our neighborhoods by replenishing Police Departments, restoring Common Sense Policing, and protecting Officers from frivolous lawsuits. We will stand up to Marxist Prosecutors, vigorously defend the Right of every American to live in peace, and we will compassionately address homelessness to restore order to our streets.

Jill Tokuda (D-HI) directs the National Park Service to assess the suitability and feasibility of designating Lahaina, Maui County, Hawaii, as the "Lahaina National Heritage Area" under the National Heritage Areas Act. Upon receiving such designation, the area would receive federal funding. President Trump's FY 2026 budget slashed all funding for National Heritage Areas, cut the National Park Service operations budget by roughly $1 billion and suggested the transfer of some national park locations to state management.

Chip Roy (R-TX) requires individuals to provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections. The bill also requires each state to take affirmative steps on an ongoing basis to ensure that only U.S. citizens are registered to vote, including the removal of noncitizens from their official lists of eligible voters.

Strengthening Democracy by Prohibiting Foreign Nationals from Influencing Elections through Contributions to Tax-Exempt Entities - "No Foreign Election Interference Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The "No Foreign Election Interference Act" sponsored by Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) would impose restrictions and penalties on tax-exempt organizations that receive funding from foreign nationals. Under existing law, foreign nationals are prohibited from donating to U.S. campaigns, however, there are no laws or regulations preventing foreign nationals from influencing U.S. elections by directing funds to 501(c)(4) organizations or other tax-exempt organizations. Under the bill, tax-exempt entities would be barred from contributing to a political committee eight years from the date it received a contribution from a foreign national. According to the sponsor, foreign entities "have been funding far-left advocacy groups, promoting Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda, and fueling antisemitic protests to influence America's political landscape". On March 25, 2025, President Trump issued an Executive Order directing the Attorney General to prioritize enforcement of laws prohibiting foreign nationals from contributing to or donating in U.S. elections. This bill failed to receive the 2/3rd vote necessary to pass.

Advancing an "America Last" Agenda and Growing Bureaucracy through the "Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts Authorization Act".

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Oppose

The "Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts Authorization Act of 2024" sponsored by Rep. Dina Titus (D-NV) would officially codify the Department of State's Office of the Coordinator for Afghan Relocation Efforts (CARE) which was established in 2021 during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. The office is tasked with relocating and resettling eligible Afghan allies and facilitating the departure from Afghanistan of U.S. citizens who request assistance. The bill would provide CARE with greater flexibility to hire personnel and allow the office to transfer funds to and from other federal agencies. In May 2025, the President Trump's State Department sent Congress a notification that the CARE Office would be eliminated by July 1. Additionally, Trump's FY?2026 budget plan proposed ending Operation Enduring Welcome—which facilitated Afghan relocations—by Sept 30, 2025, and eliminated its funding entirely.

With GOP

GOP Platform Position: Support

The Rep. Bill Huizenga (R-MI) amendment #1 to the "Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2025" eliminates funding for the Congressional Office for International Leadership (COIL).

The Rep. Ronnie Jackson (R-TX) amendment #4 to the "Legislative Branch Appropriations Act, 2025" reduces funding for the Office of the Attending Physician to the Congress to FY20 levels (a roughly 15 percent cut). According to the sponsor, funding needs to be brought back to a reasonable level, and the "nonpartisan role of Attending Physician to Congress has been highly politicized by the current Attending Physician (Dr. Monahan)". The sponsor noted that Dr. Monahan actively did the bidding of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi's "by implementing a politically motivated mask mandate in the House of Representatives despite that not being in line with the best available science or the CDC recommendations at the time."

This includes increases in spending for chamber operations, U.S. Capitol Police, the Congressional Budget Office, the Government Accountability Office and the Library of Congress. The bill decreases funding for the Architect of the Capitol, the National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled and joint items including the Joint Economic Committee and Joint Committee on Taxation.

The "Fix Our Forests Act" sponsored by Rep. Bruce Westerman (R-AR) contains numerous provisions primarily designed to help reduce wildfires. Some key provisions include improved management of forests on federal land and expedited review of certain forest management projects under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Additionally, the bill provides utility companies greater ability to remove vegetation which may damage powerlines, and also limits the ability of entities (primarily environmental groups) from advancing frivolous litigation.
