Last week, Biden made a push for even more COVID funding as part of his administration's new strategy of “living with the virus.” Curiously enough, small government conservatives have been saying that this would have to be the strategy from day one.
On behalf of FreedomWorks’ activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to vote NO on the Restaurant Revitalization Fund Replenishment Act, H.R. 3807, introduced by Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.). This bill would amend the American Rescue Plan Act to increase appropriations to the Restaurant Revitalization Fund by $60 billion.
On behalf of FreedomWorks’ activist community, I urge you to contact your senators and ask them to vote NO on the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to replace Justice Stephen Breyer on the Supreme Court.
Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) and Rep. Rick Allen (R-GA) have introduced the Employee Rights Act (ERA) of 2022, long-overdue legislation that would bring labor law into the 21st century by protecting workers from the pressure of Big Labor and the dictates of Big Government bureaucrats. The legislation recognizes that the workplace of the 21st Century–particularly the existence of independent contractors and small business franchisees–bears little resemblance to the workplace landscape of the last century.
President Biden nominated Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of the D.C. Circuit to replace Justice Stephen Breyer on the Supreme Court. This is the fifth post on her nomination. It analyzes what Judge Jackson told the Senate Judiciary Committee and whether what she said is consistent with her judicial record. It also details how Senate Democrats have dealt with nominees who have preached a judicial philosophy of originalism. The first post detailed who Judge Jackson is and what President Biden wants in a Supreme Court nominee. The second post examined and critiqued her opinion in Committee on the Judiciary v. McGahn (D.D.C. 2019) where she held the House Judiciary Committee's subpoena of former White House Counsel Don McGahn was enforceable in federal court. The third post provided 25 questions for Senators to ask Judge Jackson at her confirmation hearing. The fourth post analyzed the originalist and textualist records of President Trump's Supreme Court nominees.
On behalf of FreedomWorks’ activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to vote NO on the Affordable Insulin Now Act, H.R. 6833, introduced by Rep. Angie Craig (D-Minn.). This legislation would impose socialist price controls to cap the price of insulin at $35.
