Today, FreedomWorks sent a letter to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary in support of its markup of three smart-on-crime justice reform bills that will receive consideration tomorrow: the COVID-19 Safer Detention Act (S. 312), the Prohibiting Punishment of Acquitted Conduct Act (S. 601), and the First Step Implementation Act (S. 1014).

Today, FreedomWorks sent the following letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), as well as Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Chairman Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) and Ranking Member Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), expressing strong opposition to S.J.Res. 15, which would disapprove of the OCC's October 2020 True Lender rule.

Recently, House Democrats reintroduced H.R. 3, the Elijah E. Cummings Lower Drug Costs Now Act, or, as we prefer to call it, Speaker Pelosi’s Socialist Drug Pricing Scheme. As we’ve noted time and time again, any time the government interferes in a private market and sets prices for that market, they put a bandaid on a bullet hole -- covering the underlying issue up, but leaving it to fester and worsen over time.

FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our member of the month for April 2021 is Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.). A new member now representing Florida’s 19th Congressional District in the southwest part of the state, Rep. Donalds came to Washington as a FreedomWorks For America-endorsed candidate after years of public service representing his fellow Floridians in the Florida House of Representatives.

Today, the House is voting on a bill, the so-called "Paycheck Fairness Act," H.R. 7, which would make it easier for an employee or employees who allege wage discrimination to sue their employer while also making it nearly impossible for employers to defend their practices. Most importantly, not only does it do this at no benefit to the women it purports to be for, but actually does it at their expense, by harming job creators who offer the variety of jobs that women enjoy choice within.
