On behalf of our activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to vote in the manner prescribed for each amendment below to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021, H.R. 6395, should these amendments be allowed votes. FreedomWorks may count the votes on the amendments for purposes of our 2020 Congressional Scorecard and, as is always the case, reserves the right to score any other amendments not listed below that are brought to the floor for votes, as well as related procedural or other votes.

Last week, Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) announced that he would not seek re-election. His future had been an open question. He was essentially recruited to take the gavel of the chamber after Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) called it quits in October 2015.

Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is at it again.

One of the most interesting aspects of the Senate budget process is the offering of amendments, which is different than for regular bills in the Senate.
