Key House Vote Data for Nancy Pelosi in 2022

Date	Subject	Result	Conserv. Position	Pelosi Voted
2022-01-13	Federalizing State Elections and Weakening Ballot Integrity [HR5746]	Agreed To (220-203)
This bill, known as the "Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act," federalizes state elections and makes unelected bureaucrats within the Department of Justice arbiters of election law. CPAC opposes this attempt to federalize state elections and weaken election integrity.
2022-02-04	Pouring Gasoline on an Inflationary Fire [HR4521]	Passed (222-210)
This bill, known as the "United States Innovation and Competition Act of 2021," spends $320 billion of taxpayer funds on union-favored special interests. CPAC believes the free market, not government, should dictate investment into private industry, and opposes fueling an inflationary fire through $320 billion in new discretionary spending.
2022-02-08	Postal "Reform" Act Without Reform [HR3076]	Passed (342-92)
This union-backed bill, known as the "Postal Service Reform Act," does nothing to actually reform the postal service and instead bails out the pension system that is deeply in debt. The bill removes the requirement that USPS prepay its pension health benefits. CPAC believes this is a fiscally irresponsible way of avoiding competition with private delivery services.
2022-04-07	More Chinese Coronavirus Giveaways [HR3807]	Passed (223-203)
This bill, known as the "Restaurant Revitalization Fund Replenishment Act," includes an additional $42 billion dollars for a restaurant relief fund and money for other small businesses. CPAC points out that hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars have already gone unaccounted for, or gone to ineligible recipients.
2022-05-10	Sending Another $40 Billion Overseas Without Proper Oversight [HR7691]	Passed (368-57)
This bill spends an additional $40 billion in taxpayer funds to assist Ukraine through economic, humanitarian, and military aid. This bill does not allow for the spending to be overseen by a special inspector general and was an amount more than three times what European nations as a whole had provided to Ukraine. CPAC believes all foreign aid and assistance should at the very least be targeted and made accountable to the U.S. taxpayers.
2022-05-18	Giving Biden's Politicized DOJ More Power to Wield Against Conservatives [HR350]	Passed (222-203)
This bill would encourage and expand the FBI's targeting of American Citizens. For example, it would authorize the assignment of a special agent for each of 56 field offices to act as a "hate crime liaison." Considering recent abuses by the FBI like labeling parents that attend school board meetings as domestic terrorists and identifying Catholic groups as having a high propensity to produce "white nationalists", CPAC fears the grave misuse of this legislation.
2022-06-24	Expanding Gun Control [S2938]	Agreed To (234-193)
This bill, the so-called "Bipartisan Safer Communities Act," includes various gun control measures including expanded background checks for those under 21 and provides additional funding to states that administer "red flag" laws which allow judges to arbitrarily seize firearms from individuals even when no crime has been committed.
2022-07-15	Forcing States to Provide Abortion on Demand [HR8296]	Passed (219-210)
This bill, known as the Women's Health Protection Act, removes all restrictions on abortions. Specifically, this bill allows abortion by telemedicine and prohibits any government entity from interfering with an abortion in any way. The bill would also eliminate parental notification or consent to a minor's abortion as that might delay an abortion, which is prohibited, and provides no religious conscience protections. CPAC believes abortion is always a human tragedy and supports restrictions on the practice.
2022-07-15	Directing States to Eliminate Restrictions on Out-Of-State Abortions [HR8297]	Passed (223-205)
This bill, known as the "Ensuring Access to Abortion Act," prohibits any restriction on trafficking women to get abortions across state lines. CPAC believes abortion is always a human tragedy and supports restrictions on the practice.
2022-07-21	Violating Conscience Protections [HR8373]	Passed (228-195)
This bill, the so-called "Right to Contraception Act," would overturn commonsense conscience laws and force religious organizations, like the Little Sisters of the Poor, to distribute chemical abortion pills and other abortifacients. CPAC supports conscience protections.
2022-07-28	Stealing from Taxpayers to Fund a Government-Favored Industry [HR4346]	Agreed To (243-187)
This bill, known as the "CHIPS Act," takes $250 billion from taxpayers to give to the government-favored semiconductor industry without necessary protections that would prevent Chinese linked firms from being the primary beneficiaries. CPAC does not believe the government should use taxpayer funds to support one industry over another.
2022-07-29	Reviving The "Assault" Weapons Ban [HR1808]	Passed (217-213)
This bill revives the Clinton-era assault weapons ban although there is little agreement on what an "assault" weapon is. CPAC supports the founders' belief in the Second Amendment.
2022-08-12	The Inflation Expansion Act [HR5376]	Agreed To (220-207)
This bill, the so-called "Inflation Reduction Act," includes a long list of measures that raise taxes, feed inflation and advance the left's agenda to reduce America's energy independence. Examples include funding for the IRS to add 87,000 employees, price controls on some drugs (which creates shortages and raises prices -- even for other drugs), and adding tax credits for those who get renewable energy (including electric cars) and solar from union-approved sources. The bill "pays" for this through a minimum corporate tax and a 1% stock transfer tax among others. CPAC opposes this massive increase in government.
2022-09-30	Forcing a Christmas Vote on the Budget [HR6833]	Agreed To (230-201)
This continuing resolution postpones the Fiscal Year 2023 appropriation until just before Christmas. This move prevents Congress from having time to pass the full 12 appropriation bills separately and continues the trillions of dollars in debt that has fed inflation. CPAC supports a resolution that would extend into the new year when there would be a change in congressional leadership.
2022-12-08	An Attack on Religious Rights [HR8404]	Agreed To (258-169)
This bill, the so-called "Respect for Marriage Act," is a trojan horse that will be used to decimate religious liberty. This legislation would force people of faith and religious-affiliated institutions to violate their sincerely-held beliefs. Those individuals who choose to adhere to tenets of their faith and moral convictions would face costly litigation. And for religious-affiliated institutions, the legislation would empower President Biden's politicized IRS to threaten their tax-exempt status. Sen. Lee (R-UT), offered an amendment which would have given these necessary protections which are not included in this bill.
2022-12-23	A Lame-Duck Budget With Record Non-Defense Spending Increases [HR2617]	Agreed To (225-201)
This is the appropriations bill for the entire $1.7 trillion federal budget for Fiscal Year 2023, and it sets overall spending limits by agency or program. This new budget includes nearly $800 billion in non-defense funding, a 9.3% increase -- $68 billion -- over Fiscal Year 2022. This represents the highest level of non-defense funding ever. Passed only 3 days after being introduced, CPAC vehemently opposes this method of passing the budget, including allowing Democrats to pass the first-ever lame duck omnibus before the new Republican majority takes power.
