On behalf of our activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to cosponsor the Federal Employee Disclosure (FED) Transparency Act, H.R. 2612. Introduced by Rep. Jody Hice (R-Ga.), the FED Transparency Act would require the disclosure of federal pension records under the Freedom of Information Act and a report from agency heads on performance bonuses given to employees.
On behalf of our activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to sign the letter led by Reps. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) and Ted Budd (R-N.C.) to Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and House Republican Conference Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Wash.) urging that any vote to bring back the pernicious practice of earmarks be public. FreedomWorks will key vote the signers of the letter, treating them as voting YES for the purposes of our 2018 Congressional Scorecard.
On behalf of our activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to support the Higher Education Reform and Opportunity (HERO ) Act, H.R. 4274. Introduced by Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.), the HERO Act would allow state lawmakers to tailor education programs to the unique needs of students by developing their own system for accrediting educational institutions instead of being restricted by the one-size-fits-all approach of the federal Department of Education.
On behalf of our activist community, we urge you to contact your representative and ask him or her to support the Taxpayer-Funded Pension Disclosure Act, H.R. 3200, introduced by Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.). Currently, federal pension data is completely hidden from American taxpayers. Releasing data on federal pensions will require an act of Congress, and this bill is leading the way.
On behalf of FreedomWorks’ activist community, I urge you to contact your representative and senators and urge him or her to support an amendment to the United States Constitution to limit the number of terms Members of the House and Senate can serve. This is a bicameral effort led by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), sponsor of S.J. Res. 2, and Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.), sponsor of H.J. Res. 6.
FreedomWorks is proud to name Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) as the Congressman of the Month for January 2017. Rep. DeSantis has diligently advocated for lower taxes and free markets and has also worked to decrease the role of the federal government.
FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our Bill of the Month for September 2016 is S.1541, the Transportation Empowerment Act introduced by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), and its House counterpart, H.R. 2716 introduced by Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla). These bills respect the principles of federalism, would cut the federal gas tax, and reduce bureaucracy. Talk about making freedom work.
FreedomWorks today announced that Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) signed the Pro-Growth Pledge. The pledge is a statement of principles showing the signer’s commitment to economic growth through fundamental tax reform, reductions in spending, regulatory reform, sound money, energy freedom, and patient-centered health care.

Washington.
