In Washington, the circus of impeachment is alive and well. Yesterday, Speaker Pelosi strangely signed the articles of impeachment with dozens of pens emblazoned with her own signature, while smiling and joking around. So much for a supposedly “somber” occasion. She then proceeded to hand them out to fellow House Democrats like souvenirs or party favors, before the managers carried the articles over to the Senate.

FreedomWorks is proud to honor Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas) as our member of the month for December 2019. Representing Texas’ 4th Congressional District, which encompasses the northeast corner of the state near Dallas, Rep. Ratcliffe has been a solid defender of freedom in the House of Representatives since 2015.

In the coming weeks, Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) priority drug pricing bill, H.R. 3, is expected to come up for a vote in the House of Representatives. Make no mistake -- this is a socialist piece of legislation. Unfortunately, with the way the Democratic Party is trending and its major candidates for the presidency in 2020 endorsing increasingly big-government policies, H.R. 3 is almost guaranteed to pass the chamber.

FreedomWorks is proud to honor Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) as our member of the month for October 2019. He is in his third term in the House of Representatives, serving since 2015 for Colorado’s 4th Congressional District, which encompasses the eastern third of the state, mostly east of Denver.

FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our bill of the month for October 2019 is the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform Act (CBMTRA), H.R. 1175 and S. 362, introduced by Reps. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) and Ron Kind (D-Wis.) in the House and Sens. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) and Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) in the Senate. This bill would permanently extend the reduction in the excise tax on beer, wine, and distilled spirits that was passed as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017.

FreedomWorks is proud to honor Rep. Ted Budd (R-N.C.) as our member of the month for October 2019. He serves in the House of Representatives for North Carolina’s 13th Congressional District, which encompasses parts of Greensboro and spans south and west of that city in the western half of the state.

Though a far cry from ending capitalism, as protestors on the streets of Washington, D.C. espoused Monday during their attempt to shut down the city in the name of climate change, Congress is eyeing an expansion of market manipulation by further subsidizing electric vehicles.
