Here’s what I said on the record that they didn’t print… Brandon Gill is proving exactly why he belongs in the Freedom Caucus. While the media invents division with anonymous sources, Gill is out there dismantling Leftist myths and rooting out corruption. The Caucus is locked in and laser-focused on the SAVE America Act, securing our border, and stopping the radicals who want to destroy this country.

I am grateful that my friend and his family are safe. Political violence has NO PLACE in America!! Please join me in praying for Keith, his family, and the safety of all who serve our great nation.

How these are counted

Each roll call takes the policy area the Library of Congress gave the bill it is about; a vote on an amendment counts under its bill. 468 of the House’s 676 roll calls this Congress have an issue. Left out as procedural (208): votes on House rules and the previous question, motions to recommit or adjourn, quorum calls and the Speaker election. “With the Republican majority” counts every issue vote on which most Republicans voted the same way, Yea or Nay. “Against both parties” = most Republicans and most Democrats voted one way and this member the other. “With the Democratic majority” = a party-line vote (most of each party on opposite sides) on which this member sided with the Democrats. Independents count with the party they caucus with.
