An AI super PAC that raised $125 million exists to stop states and cities from enforcing their own AI rules. One of these Republicans wrote the bill that does the preempting, one was promised $850,000 in a race he had already won, two were buying the stock, and one was carried by $2.35 million in outside money.
The 2025 budget law cut SNAP by $187 billion — about 20%, the largest cut the program has ever taken. Six of these eight Republicans voted for it.

H.R. 1232 would delete the part of federal labor law that lets a union and an employer agree everyone covered by a contract helps pay for it — in all 50 states, whatever each state decided. Missouri voters killed right-to-work 67-33. Michigan repealed it. Their congressmen signed anyway.

Two executive orders, plus an earlier move against TSA screeners, stripped collective bargaining from 84.4% of the unionized federal workforce. A bipartisan bill to restore it passed the House 231-195 — every Democrat for it, 195 Republicans against — and the Senate has sat on it for eight months.
Republicans put a 12-year cap on congressional service to a House vote in 1995. Four of these men were there for it. Two of them are now in year 45. And five Republicans currently cosponsor a three-term cap while serving their 7th, 10th and 17th terms.
