When the Senate returns next week, the chamber will continue to process the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY 2021, S. 4049. This is the annual authorizing bill for the Department of Defense (DOD), which can, at times, include controversial provisions.

The internet is seeing absolutely unprecedented web traffic during the social distancing necessitated by the coronavirus.

FreedomWorks is proud to honor Rep. Walter Jones (R-N.C.) as our member of the month for February of 2019. Rep. Jones serves the people of North Carolina’s Third Congressional District, which encompasses most of the state’s Atlantic coastline and covers the Outer Banks. Rep. Jones, who is currently in hospice care, has been serving in the House of Representatives since 1995.

Within a few days of Congress returning from recess, House Republicans are once again undermining the document that conservatives promise time and time again to uphold -- the Constitution.

FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our bill of the month for June 2018 is H.Res. 919, sponsored by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.).

This simple fact is too often ignored by those who claim to be fiscal conservatives, yet use increased defense funding as an excuse to vote for higher and higher spending levels each year.
