| 2017-05-04 | Obamacare Repeal [HR1628] | Passed (217-213) |
 |
|
|
| This bill repeals major parts of Obamacare over a period of time, including capping Medicaid expansion, to primarily able-bodied childless adults and ending the expansion in 2020 while defunding Planned Parenthood for one year. The bill still keeps some insurance mandates while allowing more requests for waivers from mandates that force less risky customers to pay higher premiums to subsidize more risky customers. ACU supports the complete repeal of a program that has caused millions of people to lose their insurance plans and their doctors while dramatically increasing insurance premiums and deductibles and supported this bill as a step in the right direction. This vote was double-weighted due to its role in attempting to dismantle Obamacare. | |||||
| 2017-12-06 | Concealed Carry Reciprocity [HR38] | Passed (231-198) |
|
|
|
| This bill requires states to recognize concealed carry permits held by qualified people from other states while at the same time strengthening reporting requirements by federal agencies of those barred from purchasing firearms. | |||||
| 2017-12-19 | Comprehensive Tax Reform [HR1] | Agreed To (227-203) |
|
|
|
| This bill substantially reduces taxes on corporations and small business, reduces individual income tax rates from top to bottom, increases the standard deduction for individuals and the exemption for the Death Tax and repeals Obamacare's individual mandate beginning in 2019. Although the bill does not include provisions advocated by ACU, including simplifying the tax code, abolishing the Death Tax and abolishing the Alternative Minimum Tax, ACU supported the bill as a good first step in passing more comprehensive tax reform. | |||||
| 2017-12-21 | Disaster Assistance Supplemental Appropriations [HR4667] | Passed (251-169) |
 |
|
 |
| This bill appropriates $81 billion in "emergency" funding with no offsets to deal with disaster assistance for hurricanes and fires. ACU opposes this irresponsible approach to disaster funding that is double the Trump Administration request, includes billions of dollars that will not be spent for years to come and includes money for cotton producers that were not affected by natural disasters. | |||||
