This measure sought a conservative rewrite to fix a housing mandate/spending package. We support this conservative amendment because it would rein in costs, respect local control, and protect property rights. The roll call was failed 6–34 on Amendment 25 – RC #194, and the amendment failed.

This measure advances corporate-welfare and infrastructure-pork spending. We oppose this spending vehicle because subsidies distort markets and waste taxpayer dollars. The roll call was 38–0 (1 absent) on Amendment 6 – RC #104, and the amendment was adopted.

This measure imposes an activist ban on a veterinary procedure, substituting political dictates for private decisions. CPAC opposes this bill. The roll call was 39–0 on Engrossed – RC #107, and the bill was engrossed and advanced.

This measure advances the vehicle for a sweeping gun-control package. We oppose this gun-control bill because it infringes on the Second Amendment and targets lawful owners instead of criminals. The roll call was 39–0 on Amendment 3 – RC #110, and the amendment was adopted.

This measure pushes environmental micromanagement by restricting common consumer plastics. We oppose this green mandate because it limits consumer choice and imposes costly regulations with negligible environmental benefit. The roll call was failed 8–30 (1 absent) on Amendment 1 – RC #184, and the amendment failed.

This measure advances a housing mandate vehicle tied to the House package. We oppose this housing vehicle because it expands state control over development and distorts markets with subsidies and mandates. The roll call was 31–9 on Amendment 474 – RC #198, and the amendment was adopted.

This measure advances the Affordable Homes Act with statewide mandates and spending. We oppose this housing mandate package because it overrides local control and pours taxpayer money into top-down schemes. The roll call was 40–0 on Engrossed – RC #197, and the bill was engrossed and advanced.

This measure was a procedural attempt to recommit a radical gun-control bill. We oppose the underlying gun-control bill because it infringes on the Second Amendment, and while this was procedural, our opposition is to the substance of the bill. The roll call was Failed 9–31 on Motion to refer — RC #109, and the motion failed and the bill remained on the floor.

This measure adopted the final negotiated gun-control package. We oppose this final gun-control package because it locks in sweeping restrictions and leaves no avenue to amend bad provisions. The roll call was passed 35–5 on Conference committee report — RC #208, and the conference report was adopted.

This measure fast-tracked the gun-control package by suspending normal rules. We oppose both the gun-control bill and rule-suspension tactics because they ram through complex restrictions without transparency or debate. The roll call was Passed 35–5 on Suspension of rules — RC #205, and the suspension succeeded, fast-tracking the bill.

This measure was a procedural motion to force a full reading of the gun-control bill. We oppose the underlying gun-control bill because it infringes on the Second Amendment and burdens the law-abiding; this motion did not stop the substance. The roll call was Failed 6–34 on Motion to Clerk read bill — RC #207, and the motion failed.
