In May 2025, 215 House Republicans voted for a ten-year ban on states and towns enforcing any law that limits AI — data centers included. Four of the fourteen named here voted for it four separate times. Now they are campaigning on letting your town decide.
The 2025 budget law cut SNAP by $187 billion — about 20%, the largest cut the program has ever taken. Six of these eight Republicans voted for it. Between them they co-chaired the hunger caucus, chaired the nutrition subcommittee, told the public a food bank was on their side, and turned down $18 million meant to feed kids.
A year ago Americans were split on AI data centers. Now 75% oppose one in their area. These eight Republicans spent that year helping the build-out along, taking the industry's money, or both. Five have spent the last few weeks repositioning. Three are still making the industry's case.
One wrote half of it and voted no. One called it 'inextricably linked' to a recession, then said she led the effort. One got $8.5 billion for his state and didn't show up. Here's the receipt.
Tenney was one of 187 Republicans who voted against the CHIPS and Science Act. Three and a half years later she claimed credit for the Micron plant it paid for — and PolitiFact called it Half True.
Two executive orders, plus an earlier move against TSA screeners, stripped collective bargaining from 84.4% of the unionized federal workforce. A bipartisan bill to restore it passed the House 231-195 — every Democrat for it, 195 Republicans against — and the Senate has sat on it for eight months.
Malliotakis went on Fox News to argue that if New York asks for photo ID at a city grocery program, voting should require ID too. The bill she voted for in February does require photo ID at the polls. It also requires you to appear in person with a passport, or a birth certificate and a photo ID, to register or to re-register after moving or marrying.
The 60 Plus Association was started with Koch money in 1992. It bragged in 1997 that it was the first seniors group to back privatizing Social Security, and it has pushed to turn Medicare into vouchers. Eleven House Republicans and an independent who caucuses with them took its award anyway.
POLITICO asked all 16 whether they'd return money from a congressman accused of assaulting his ex-wife and their young child. Brad Finstad returned $5,000. Mike Lawler said no. The other 14 wouldn't say.
