Troy Downing's trade war is wrecking Montana agriculture #maga #montana #agriculture
Troy Downing and Donald Trump are waging a reckless trade war that is hammering Montana's agricultural economy.
Twice the House Came One Vote From Telling Trump to End the Iran War — the First Resolution Lost 213-214, the Next Deadlocked 212-212, and 181 Republicans We Track Voted No on Both.
On April 16 a war powers resolution failed 213-214. On May 14 the next one deadlocked 212-212, and a tie fails. Either one needed exactly one Republican to switch. Only Thomas Massie, who has no page here, voted yes both times.
185 House Members We Track Voted to Make States Hand Your Medicaid and Food Stamp Records to Trump's Former Defense Lawyer
On September 16 the House passed the PROOF Act, 217-207. It orders states to turn over whatever Medicaid, SNAP and other benefit records Attorney General Todd Blanche asks for in writing, with no judge involved. A federal court had already blocked the Trump administration from cutting food stamp funding to states that refused to hand over recipient data. 185 of the members who voted yes have report cards on this site.
16 Republicans on Our Report Cards Asked the EPA to Treat Abortion Pills as a Drinking-Water Contaminant. Scientists Say There's No Evidence. Trump's EPA Is Testing for Them Anyway.
In June, 19 Republicans in Congress signed a letter urging the EPA to add mifepristone to its list of possible water contaminants. On September 9 the EPA announced a drinking-water study that includes the two abortion drugs. Environmental health experts say there's no scientific evidence abortion medication harms the environment or people — and five days later, the EPA announced it is scrapping carbon limits on power plants.
180 House Members We Track Voted a Third Time to Keep Trump's Iran War Going. Congress's Budget Office Says It Has Already Cost $38 Billion.
On September 15 the House voted 220-204 to end the war with Iran — the third time since June. Republicans voted 203 to 7 against it, and 180 of the members who voted no are on our report cards. The same day, the Congressional Budget Office put the war's direct cost at $38.1 billion and said it will push inflation higher into 2027.
Troy Downing Says the Health Insurance Tax Credits He Voted Against Extending Were for 'a Small Set' of the Market. More Than 58,000 Montanans Were Getting Them.
In a new op-ed, Downing says the expired ACA tax credits were a COVID-era fix for a sliver of the market. Congress extended them in 2022, most Montanans buying coverage on the exchange got them, and 11% of Montana's paying enrollees are already gone. He voted no on extending them — twice.
Troy Downing Wrote a Bill to Cut Off Every HUD Housing Grant to Cities That Limit ICE Cooperation. Nineteen Republicans We Cover Signed On.
H.R. 10222 would make a whole city — or a whole state — ineligible for any HUD grant. In Montana that money pays for homeless shelters, rapid rehousing and youth homelessness programs. Downing wouldn't answer what it would do to Helena.
