Hagerty authored the GENIUS Act, the first federal crypto law. It says in its own text that stablecoins get no FDIC insurance. Within two weeks of Senate passage, the CEOs of Coinbase and Ripple wrote his joint fundraising committee $15,100.
Tom Rice voted to impeach Trump over January 6 and said he'd defended the Constitution. Trump endorsed Fry to throw him out "ASAP." Fry won 51% to 24% — the first Trump-endorsed challenger to unseat a Republican who crossed him.
When he said it in March 2026, neither blast furnace at the Granite City mill was making steel and the plant was still hiring for a restart that hadn't happened yet. One furnace had been down since 2019 — a year after the tariffs. A fully staffed mill employs 1,200 to 1,300 people. And it isn't in his district anymore.
He won't hold an in-person town hall because they get 'overrun by organized protests.' Then he told a hometown paper that protesters are paid — citing nicer-looking signs and unnamed 'United States intelligence.'
At an April 2025 telephone town hall closed to media questions, Fry called Medicaid vital and then said too many people are on it. He then voted twice for the cuts. SC-07 is projected to lose more health coverage than any other district in South Carolina, and an advocacy group's tally puts average ACA premiums in the state up 235%.
Fry filed for the Senate special election and for re-election to SC-07 at the same time. Ralph Norman says the House seat could sit vacant until May 18. Nancy Mace: "If you're running for two offices at once, you've already told us who you are." He is polling at 12%.
In 2021 Bost said it was 'every veteran's right to have an opinion — even one I find radical.' In July 2026, one day after the VFW put a 93-year-old protest cartoon on a T-shirt, he asked the VA to scrutinize the group's accreditation.
As chairman of the subcommittee that funds the State Department and all U.S. foreign aid, Diaz-Balart has cut nearly $12 billion since 2023 — while a Lancet study projects more than 14 million additional deaths by 2030 if the aid cuts hold.
AIPAC alone gave him about $68,000 by the end of July — his largest single donor by far. More than 100 PACs have written him checks. And the most common profession listed by his donors, after 'retired,' is blank.
