Result and Date	Bill #	Bill Title	My Vote	What it means for you and your family
3/9/2021 PASSED 225-206	H.R. 842	Protecting the Right to Organize Act of 2021	NO	This bill will deprive millions of workers of their right to choose whether to join a union and fundamentally alter America’s system of labor relations.
3/11/2021 PASSED 227-203	H.R. 8	Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2021	NO	Please see my statement on this bill from last Congress here.
3/11/2021 PASSED 219-210	H.R. 1446	Enhanced Background Checks Act of 2021	NO	Current law allows the sale of a firearm to an individual if the NICS does not return a denial within 3 full business days. The measure would extend the initial 3 business day waiting period to 10 business days.This extension presents an unnecessary burden on law-abiding citizens and could even deny access to their Constitutional rights. Additionally, if a result is not returned within this period, the purchaser must submit a petition to the government for the sale to proceed and wait an additional 10 days before the firearm can be transferred.
