2. Repeal of Mexico City Policy in Consolidated Appropriations Act

Sponsored by Rep. Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.), the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019 (H.R. 21) would repeal the Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance Policy instituted by President Trump. This policy bars taxpayer dollars from funding abortion overseas in U.S. foreign policy.

FRC Action Opposed this Bill.

(Passed 03/08/2019, 234 yeas to 193 nays, Roll Call No. 118)

4. Disapproval of Transgender Military Policy

Sponsored by Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-MA), this resolution (H.Res.124) mischaracterized the new Department of Defense (DOD) policy as a "transgender ban," which it is not; and it supports the Obama Administration's policy that prioritized social engineering over military readiness and unit cohesion.

(Passed 03/28/19, 238 yeas to 185 nays, Roll Call No. 135)

FRC Action Opposed this Resolution.

5. Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) Reauthorization

Sponsored by Rep. Karen Bass (D-CA), the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2019 (H.R. 1585) would undermine the intended purpose of the bill and disregards the privacy and safety of abused women, the largest population of victims. It also funds Planned Parenthood, not only the largest abortion provider in the country, but also an organization that too often refuses to report statutory rape and sexual assault abuse of its patients.

(Passed 04/04/19, 263 yeas to 158 nays, Roll Call No. 156)

FRC Action Opposed this Bill.

6. Equality Act

Sponsored by Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI), the Equality Act (H.R. 5) is an anti-life, anti-faith, and anti-freedom bill that would overhaul our federal civil rights framework to mandate special privileges for sexual orientation and gender identity.

(Passed 05/17/19, 236 yeas to 173 nays, Roll Call No. 217)

FRC Action Opposed this Bill.
