Title

Lawmaker Position

H.C.R. 86House 20242x

Expressing Opposition to a Carbon Tax and its Detriment on Families and Businesses.

With CEA
This resolution sponsored by Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-MT) expresses the sense of Congress that a carbon tax is not in the best interest of the country and would be detrimental to families and businesses. The resolution highlighted that the share of energy consumption during 2023 in the United States that was derived from fossil fuels was approximately 80 percent and a carbon tax will increase the cost of every good manufactured in the United States.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 29:2 – "When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan."
Leadership Insight
Righteous economic leadership creates prosperity that lifts all people; wicked rulers impose taxation, regulation, and cronyism that make the people groan. Economic freedom flourishes under leaders who fear God and protect property rights. When government becomes extractive rather than protective, citizens suffer under the weight of policies designed to benefit the powerful rather than serve the productive.
H.J. RES. 98House 20245x

Utilizing the Congressional Review Act to Overturn Anti-Small Business Regulations Imposed by the Biden Administration Surrounding "Joint Employer Status".

With CEA
This resolution introduced by Rep. John James (R-MI) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule issued by the National Labor Relations Board on October 27, 2023, titled "Standard for Determining Joint Employer Status". The rule largely reestablished the broad Obama-era standard of "joint employment" whereby one company could be held legally liable for another businesses' employees even if they do not directly oversee them. This rule has a large impact on business and labor law, including collective bargaining, pay, scheduling and employer liability for unfair labor practices.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Matthew 20:13-15 – "But he answered one of them, 'I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?'"
Leadership Insight
Jesus validates voluntary employment agreements between workers and employers. Workforce freedom protects the right of both parties to negotiate terms without union coercion, government wage mandates, or third-party interference. The workers agreed to a denarius - and that agreement was fair. Freedom in the workforce means honoring contracts and rejecting forced collectivism.
H.R. 1023House 20242x

Repealing the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund and other Politicized Environmental Program Harming Economic Growth Through the "Cutting Green Corruption and Taxes Act".

With CEA
The "Cutting Green Corruption and Taxes Act" sponsored by Rep. Gary Palmer (R-AL) would rollback climate and environmental justice programs established in the Inflation Reduction Act (IFA) including the repeal of the "Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund". The bill also eliminates an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) program which provides incentives for petroleum and natural gas systems to reduce their emissions of methane and other greenhouse gases, as well as a charge placed on certain facilities for their methane emissions.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Isaiah 55:2 – "Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and you will delight in the richest of fare."
Leadership Insight
God challenges wasteful spending and misdirected labor that produces no lasting value. Economic freedom means the liberty to invest resources in Kingdom purposes without government mandates dictating consumption. Leaders who reduce unnecessary taxation and regulation allow individuals to steward earnings toward what truly satisfies - family, faith, and generational wealth rather than bureaucratic waste.
H.R. 1121House 20243x

Preventing Any President from Banning Hydraulic Fracking Through the "Protecting American Energy Production Act".

With CEA
The "Protecting American Energy Production Act" sponsored by Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) would prevent any president from banning hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" and expresses that the states themselves should regulate fracking for oil and natural gas production on state and private lands. Hydraulic fracking is a process to extract oil or gas from a geologic formation by injecting water, a propping agent (e.g., sand), and chemical additives into a well under enough pressure to fracture the formation.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 16:12 – "It is an abomination to kings to do evil, for the throne is established by righteousness."
Leadership Insight
Righteous governance sustains authority; evil erodes it. Leaders who embrace corruption forfeit moral legitimacy. God establishes thrones through justice, not power. Character determines whether influence endures or collapses.
H.R. 1797House 20241x

Growing the Size and Scope of the Consumer Product Safety Commission to Impose New Mandates on Electric Bicycles and Scooters.

Against CEA
The "Setting Consumer Standards for Lithium-Ion Batteries Act" sponsored by Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) requires the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to impose new mandates on micromobility devices (such as electric bicycles and scooters) relating to lithium-ion batteries and fire risk. According to the Congressional Budget Office, the bill is expected to increase taxpayer cost by $6 million to hire additional government employees to carry out these duties over the next five years.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Galatians 5:1 – "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
Leadership Insight
Freedom is not the absence of restraint; it is the presence of divine purpose. Christ purchased liberty not for comfort but for courage. A free leader under God becomes unshakable, even when culture shifts.
H.R. 192House 20241x

Preventing Voter Disenfranchisement by Nullifying a District of Columbia Law that Provides Voting Rights to Illegal Immigrants.

With CEA
This bill, sponsored by Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) prohibits individuals who are not citizens of the United States from voting in elections in the District of Columbia and repeals the "Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2022". While federal law prohibits noncitizens from voting in a federal election, DC enacted a law that allows illegal immigrants to vote in local elections. This bill repeals the DC law, which went into effect on February 23, 2023.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 16:10-11 – "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?"
Leadership Insight
Jesus teaches that faithfulness in worldly matters proves readiness for spiritual responsibility - a truth essential to First Freedom. Religious organizations that steward resources faithfully should be trusted to operate freely, not subjected to government interference and IRS scrutiny designed to silence their voice. First Freedom protects faithful ministries from bureaucratic harassment that treats religious stewardship as suspect simply because it advances Kingdom purposes.
H.R. 2872House 20242x

Maintaining Fiscal Irresponsibility through the "Further Additional Continuing Appropriations and Other Extensions Act, 2024" that Fails to Include a Critical Border Security Provision.

Against CEA
The "Further Additional Continuing Appropriations and Other Extensions Act, 2024" would avoid a shutdown by extending government funding through either March 1 or March 8, 2024 depending upon agency. Notably, the bill does not contain border security provisions advocated by conservatives.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 14:28-30 – "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
Leadership Insight
Vision must meet calculation. God honors leaders who count costs before claiming promises. Stewardship without foresight breeds collapse.
H.R. 2882House 20242x

Reauthorizing the Udall Foundation an Unnecessary Politicized Entity Advancing DEI and Climate Change Agendas.

Against CEA
The "Udall Foundation Reauthorization Act of 2023" sponsored by Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ) would reauthorize through FY 2028 the Morris K. Udall and Stewart L. Udall Foundation, which is an independent executive branch agency. The Foundation engages in public policy pertaining to environmental policy and climate change, as well as funds scholarships for individuals who identify as Native American. The Foundation lists diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) as one of its strategic objectives in its strategic plan.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 14:28-30 – "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
Leadership Insight
Vision must meet calculation. God honors leaders who count costs before claiming promises. Stewardship without foresight breeds collapse.
H.R. 3950House 20241x

Growing the Federal Government to Impose New Mandates on Ticket Sellers for Events Concerning Fee Disclosures Through the "TICKET Act".

Against CEA
The "Transparency In Charges for Key Events Ticketing (TICKET) Act" sponsored by Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-FL) imposes new federal mandates on private ticket sellers for concerts, sporting events, performances and other events concerning the disclosure of certain fees and itemization of costs. The bill is estimated to cost the FTC $4 million to issue guidance and to monitor and enforce violations.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Galatians 5:1 – "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
Leadership Insight
Freedom is not the absence of restraint; it is the presence of divine purpose. Christ purchased liberty not for comfort but for courage. A free leader under God becomes unshakable, even when culture shifts.
H.R. 4763House 20243x

Establishing a New Regulatory Framework which Protects the Crypto Industry from Draconian Regulations by the SEC that Hinder Innovation.

With CEA
The "Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act (FIT21)" sponsored by Rep. Glenn Thompson (R-PA) largely prevents the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from imposing overreaching regulations in the digital asset market (including crypto-currency) by providing greater regulatory clarity. Under the bill, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is provided with new jurisdiction over digital commodities and the bill also establishes a process to permit the secondary market trading of digital commodities if they were initially offered as part of an investment contract.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Leviticus 25:10 – "Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan."
Leadership Insight
The Year of Jubilee proclaimed economic liberty - restoration of property, cancellation of debts, and freedom from bondage. Economic freedom follows this biblical pattern: protecting property rights, enabling debt relief through bankruptcy rather than permanent servitude, and ensuring families can rebuild wealth across generations. Government policies that permanently trap families in poverty, extract generational wealth through death taxes, or prevent property ownership contradict Jubilee's vision of economic restoration.
H.R. 5403House 20243x

Protecting Individual Liberties and Privacy by Prohibiting the Federal Reserve from Issuing a Surveillance-Style Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).

With CEA
The "CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act" sponsored by Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) would prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a surveillance-style central bank digital currency (CBDC) that could give the federal government the ability to monitor or control individual Americans' spending habits. According to the sponsor "bill ensures the United States digital currency policy remains in the hands of the American people - not the Administrative State - so that any development of a digital money will reflect our American values: privacy, individual sovereignty, and free market competitiveness".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Leviticus 25:10 – "Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan."
Leadership Insight
The Year of Jubilee proclaimed economic liberty - restoration of property, cancellation of debts, and freedom from bondage. Economic freedom follows this biblical pattern: protecting property rights, enabling debt relief through bankruptcy rather than permanent servitude, and ensuring families can rebuild wealth across generations. Government policies that permanently trap families in poverty, extract generational wealth through death taxes, or prevent property ownership contradict Jubilee's vision of economic restoration.
H.R. 6009House 20242x

Overturning Biden Administration Rules which Limit Oil and Gas Production on Federal Lands Through the "Restoring American Energy Dominance Act".

With CEA
The "Restoring American Energy Dominance Act" sponsored by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) would nullify the Bureau of Land Management's proposed rule entitled "Fluid Mineral Leases and Leasing Process." This rule would (1) increases bonding rates for oil and gas production on federal lands, (2) introduces new "preference criteria" for onshore oil and gas leasing that would limit areas available for production, (3) prevent leasing outside of currently producing areas.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 16:12 – "It is an abomination to kings to do evil, for the throne is established by righteousness."
Leadership Insight
Righteous governance sustains authority; evil erodes it. Leaders who embrace corruption forfeit moral legitimacy. God establishes thrones through justice, not power. Character determines whether influence endures or collapses.
H.R. 6192 (Kelly Amd. 3)House 20241x

Overturning a Biden Administration Rule which Hikes Electricity Costs by Imposing Costly Energy Conservation Mandates on Transformers.

With CEA
The Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) amendment #3 to the "Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act" would prevent a Department of Energy rule issued on April 4, 2024, titled "Energy Conservation Program: Energy Conservation Standards for Distribution Transformers" from taking effect. The rule requires a shift towards using energy-efficient amorphous steel cores for transformers as opposed to much less costly grain-oriented electrical steel. According to the sponsor, the rule threatens the long-term viability of a steel mill in Butler, Pennsylvania which employs over 1,300 union workers.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Galatians 5:1 – "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
Leadership Insight
Freedom is not the absence of restraint; it is the presence of divine purpose. Christ purchased liberty not for comfort but for courage. A free leader under God becomes unshakable, even when culture shifts.
H.R. 6285House 20243x

Expanding American Energy Production by Overturning the Biden Administration's Ban on Oil and Gas Production on Alaska's North Slope.

With CEA
The "Alaska's Right to Produce Act of 2023" sponsored by Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MN) would restore energy development on Alaska's North Slope. Specifically, the bill would reverse the Biden Department of the Interior (DOI)'s decision to prohibit oil and gas development on 13 million acres within the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A) and also reinstates the leases that the Biden administration had cancelled within the non-wilderness Coastal Plain of the Artic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR).
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Genesis 9:1-3 – "Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, 'Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth. The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands. Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.'"
Leadership Insight
God's command to "be fruitful and increase" includes economic multiplication and resource stewardship. The Creator entrusted humanity with natural resources for provision and prosperity, not scarcity and control. Economic freedom flows from divine mandate - leaders who protect property rights and free enterprise honor God's design for human flourishing through responsible dominion.
H.R. 6544House 20242x

Expanding U.S. Energy Production by Streamlining Permitting for Nuclear Energy through the "Atomic Energy Advancement Act".

With CEA
The "Atomic Energy Advancement Act" sponsored by Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) would accelerate the deployment of nuclear energy technologies, such as advanced nuclear reactors. Most notably, the bill makes reforms within the Department of Energy to help expedite permits and environmental reviews as well as reduce regulatory costs for nuclear energy companies. Furthermore, the bill reduces certain licensing fees charged by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for advanced nuclear reactors.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
1 Timothy 5:8 – “Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”
Leadership Insight
Providing for family is not optional - it's a spiritual mandate. Leaders champion policies that enable work, strengthen families, and protect parental authority. Dependency on government undermines the biblical call to provide. Personal responsibility precedes public assistance.
H.R. 6914House 20242x

Encouraging Pregnant College Students to Choose Life over Abortion by Providing them a List of Available Resources through the "Pregnant Students' Rights Act".

With CEA
The "Pregnant Students' Rights Act" sponsored by Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) would require colleges and universities to inform pregnant students of their rights and of the resources available on campus to help pregnant students carry a baby to term. This includes a list of community and on-campus resources that exist and information about accommodations available for pregnant students leading up to and after birth.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 139:13-16 – "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Leadership Insight
David's declaration that God forms life in the womb is foundational to healthcare freedom. Medical professionals who believe life is sacred from conception must be free to practice medicine without being forced to participate in abortion or life-ending procedures. Healthcare freedom protects providers, hospitals, and insurers from government mandates that require complicity in ending the lives God is authoring. Conscience protection is healthcare freedom.
H.R. 7023House 20243x

Cutting Overreaching Environmental Regulations through the "Creating Confidence in Clean Water Permitting Act".

With CEA
The "Creating Confidence in Clean Water Permitting Act" sponsored by Rep. David Rouzer (R-NC) is comprised of five standalone bills previously introduced in the U.S. House and would reform the Clean Water Act (CWA) to reduce regulatory barriers. Firstly, the bill reforms procedures pertaining to National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits and places limits on litigation. Secondly, the bill limits EPA veto authority and the judicial review timelines for CWA Section 404 dredge and fill permits.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Isaiah 10:1-2 – "Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless."
Leadership Insight
God pronounces woe on lawmakers who craft economic policies that oppress the poor through excessive taxation, regulatory barriers to entry, and cronyism that favors the connected over the capable. Economic freedom is justice for the poor - when the working class keeps more of their earnings, when small businesses can compete without crushing compliance costs, and when families can build wealth without government extraction. Unjust economic laws always hit the poor hardest.
H.R. 7176House 20242x

Boosting American Energy Dominance by Circumventing a Biden Administration Ban on Liquid Natural Gas through the "Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act".

With CEA
The "Unlocking our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2024" sponsored by Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) would eliminate duplication in the permitting process for Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) exports and bypasses the "pause" the Biden administration imposed on LNG exports on January 26, 2024. Specifically, the bill eliminates the requirement for the Department of Energy to authorize LNG exports and instead give the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) sole authority over the approval process. As a result, the bill bypasses the specific provision used by the Biden administration to pause approvals of LNG exports.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
1 Timothy 5:8 – “Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”
Leadership Insight
Providing for family is not optional - it's a spiritual mandate. Leaders champion policies that enable work, strengthen families, and protect parental authority. Dependency on government undermines the biblical call to provide. Personal responsibility precedes public assistance.
H.R. 7343House 20242x

Restoring Law and Order Through the "Detain and Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act".

With CEA
The "Detain and Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act" sponsored by Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) requires the Department of Homeland Security to take custody of any illegal immigrant who meets certain criteria and is arrested for, charged with, convicted of, or admits to assaulting a law enforcement officer, firefighter, or other first responder. The bill also directs the Government Accountability Office to report to Congress on the number of non-U.S. nationals detained under the bill.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
H.R. 7463House 20242x

Advancing a Fiscally Irresponsible Budget by Kicking the Can Down the Road through the "Extension of Continuing Appropriations and Other Matters Act, 2024".

Against CEA
The "Extension of Continuing Appropriations and Other Matters Act, 2024" sponsored by Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX) would avert a partial government shutdown by extending government funding by a week (March 8) for six agencies and March 22 for others. The extension serves as a stopgap as the final details on a broader extension are finalized. According to bill opponents, the broader bill will not provide any substantial spending reductions at a time the nation is facing $1 trillion in annual interest payment on the debt.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 14:28-30 – "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
Leadership Insight
Vision must meet calculation. God honors leaders who count costs before claiming promises. Stewardship without foresight breeds collapse.
H.R. 7511House 20243x

Strengthening National Security by Ensuring the Detention of Illegal Immigrants Accused of Theft, Burglary and Serious Crimes Under the "Laken Riley Act".

With CEA
The "Laken Riley Act" sponsored by Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) would require the federal detention of illegal immigrants who are accused of theft, burglary, assaulting a law enforcement officer, and any crime that causes death or serious bodily injury. The Laken Riley Act is named after a Georgia nursing student who was killed by an illegal Venezuelan immigrant who had previously been arrested and paroled into the United States.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 82:3-4 – "Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."
Leadership Insight
God commands leaders to defend those who cannot defend themselves. Justice is not passive - it requires intervention. Leaders who ignore the vulnerable betray their calling. Advocacy for the powerless is not optional; it's obedience.
H.R. 7530House 20242x

Combatting Skyrocketing Crime in D.C. by Overturning the Council's Dangerous Policing and Criminal Justice Reforms Through the "DC CRIMES Act".

With CEA
The "D.C. Criminal Reforms to Immediately Make Everyone Safe (DC CRIMES) Act of 2024" sponsored by Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) would limit the authority of the District of Columbia (DC) government over its criminal sentencing laws and amends the definition of "youth offender" in DC by reducing the maximum age from 24 years to 18 years - thereby eliminating a loophole allowing dangerous criminals to escape jail time. Due to the "criminal justice reforms" implemented by DC's government, violent crime in the District rose 39% from 2023 to 2024.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 82:3-4 – "Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."
Leadership Insight
God commands leaders to defend those who cannot defend themselves. Justice is not passive - it requires intervention. Leaders who ignore the vulnerable betray their calling. Advocacy for the powerless is not optional; it's obedience.
H.R. 7887House 20241x

Reducing Taxpayer Costs and Ensuring Contractors can Hire the Most Qualified Workers by Eliminating Minimum Experience and Educational Requirements.

With CEA
The "Allowing Contractors to Choose Employees for Select Skills (ACCESS) Act" sponsored by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) would prohibit minimum experience or educational requirements for proposed contractor personnel in government contract solicitations unless deemed necessary by the agency. In cases where such requirements are included, contracting officers must provide a written justification explaining why they are essential.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
2 Thessalonians 3:10 – "The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat."
Leadership Insight
God honors productivity, not passivity. Work is not punishment - it’s purpose. A culture that rewards laziness erodes dignity and independence.
H.R. 8070 (Boebert Amd. 48)House 20241x

Defunding the "Countering Extremist Activity Working Group" in the DOD which Targets Political Opponents.

With CEA
The Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) amendment #48 to the "Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025" would prohibit Federal funding for the "Countering Extremist Activity Working Group" or for the implementation of any recommendations from the group. According to the sponsor, "in 2021, Democrats and the Biden regime unjustly used January 6 to prop up this woke working group to provide cover for unjustly targeting members of our military" and "has been weaponized and implemented to almost exclusively target Republicans, Conservatives, and Libertarians".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 22:36 – "He said to them, 'But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.'"
Leadership Insight
Jesus affirms the right to self-defense. Preparedness is not paranoia - it's stewardship of safety. Leaders who defend the Second Amendment defend the biblical principle that protection is both a right and a responsibility. Security begins with the citizen, not the state.
H.R. 8070 (Norman Amd. 53)House 20243x

Protecting Taxpayers from Being Forced to Pay for Gender Transition Procedures Under the DOD Exceptional Family Member Program.

With CEA
The Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) amendment #53 to the "Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025" prohibits the inclusion of gender transition procedures, including surgery or medication, within the Exceptional Family Member Program. The Exceptional Family Member Program provides resources to military families with special needs and is designed for military spouses, children, or other dependent family members who require ongoing medical or educational services such as individuals with asthma, autism, chronic respiratory illness and intellectual disabilities. According to the sponsor, "if you don't know whether you are a man or a woman, that is fine, go figure it out, and you pay for it, not the government from money we don't have".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Matthew 20:13-15 – "But he answered one of them, 'I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?'"
Leadership Insight
Jesus upholds the principle that individuals have the right to allocate their resources according to their own judgment - including healthcare decisions. Healthcare freedom means employers and individuals choose coverage, providers, and treatments without government mandates dictating how health dollars are spent. The landowner's authority over his vineyard mirrors the family's authority over their healthcare choices.
H.R. 8070 (Rosendale Amd. 52)House 20242x

Protecting Taxpayers from Being Forced to Pay for Transgender Sex Reassignment Surgeries Through the DoD TRICARE Health Program.

With CEA
The Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT) amendment #52 to the "Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025" would prohibit TRICARE from covering and the Department of Defense from furnishing gender transition surgeries and gender hormone treatments for individuals that identify as transgender. According to the sponsor, "the DOD spent millions of dollars on these surgeries, and they do nothing to help our servicemembers. The follow-up medications and counseling are even more costly".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Matthew 20:13-15 – "But he answered one of them, 'I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?'"
Leadership Insight
The landowner's freedom to be generous according to his own conscience reflects the foundational liberty of faith and conviction. First Freedom protects the right to act on deeply held beliefs - including how we steward resources for Kingdom purposes. When government dictates generosity, it usurps the conscience God alone should guide.
H.R. 8070 (Van Duyne Amd. 55)House 20242x

Protecting the Sanctity of Life by Prohibiting Taxpayer Funds for PTO, Lodging or Travel Expenses for Elective Abortions.

With CEA
The Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-TX) amendment #55 to the "Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025" would prohibit the Secretary of Defense from paying for or reimbursing expenses relating to abortion services. According to the sponsor, "in 2022, President Biden issued new Department of Defense policy using taxpayer dollars to fund time off, lodging, and travel expenses for elective abortions" and this amendment "will stop this unlawful practice and return to the Hyde protections codified in law".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 139:13-16 – "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Leadership Insight
David declares that God forms every person in the womb - a truth that shapes First Freedom's protection of religious pro-life conviction. Believers who hold that life begins at conception must be free to operate hospitals, businesses, and ministries according to this conviction. First Freedom protects religious organizations from being forced to fund, perform, or participate in abortion against their sincere belief that God is the Author of life from conception.
H.R. 8070 (Williams Amd. 45)House 20242x

Protecting Free Speech by Ending the Federal Funding of Entities Hired to Harras Small Businesses and Label their Speech as "Untrustworthy".

With CEA
The Rep. Roger Williams (R-TX) amendment #45 to the "Servicemember Quality of Life Improvement and National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025" would prohibit funding of companies who function to demonetize domestic entities based on their lawful speech. According to the sponsor, "NewsGuard and similar companies receive funds from the Department of Defense and other Federal agencies to actively suppress and demonetize small businesses by labeling certain speech as untrustworthy, using partisan tactics and skewed determinations of fact". The sponsor noted that this is a "direct effort by the government to skirt the Constitution and force a single viewpoint on America".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Acts 4:19-20 – "Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to Him? As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard."
Leadership Insight
When truth is silenced, darkness prevails. The apostles refused to edit their message for cultural comfort. Faithful leaders must speak what God says, even when it costs influence.

Strengthening Government Accountability by Requiring Reports on the Impact of the Border Crisis on Law Enforcement Through the "Police Our Border Act".

With CEA
The "Police Our Border Act" sponsored by Rep. Anthony D'Esposito (R-NY) would require the Department of Justice to report on the impact of the Biden Administration's border policies on law enforcement officers at the federal, state, local, and tribal levels. According to the sponsor, "the report will detail the effects the border crisis has had on law enforcement, including the estimated cost of all resources used to address the influx of illegal immigrants". Additionally, the report "must include information on how much exposure law enforcement officers have to fentanyl while encountering illegal immigrants crossing the southern border as well as any injuries sustained while on the line of duty".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.

Protecting America and Israel from Frivolous International Lawfare by Imposing Sanctions on International Criminal Court Officials.

With CEA
The "Illegitimate Court Counteraction Act" sponsored by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) would impose sanctions on International Criminal Court (ICC) officials who seek to go after U.S. citizens or allies, including Israel. According to the sponsor, "the ICC is an illegitimate body that has no business interfering with our sovereignty or that of our allies" and "the Trump administration was right to impose sanctions on the associates of the ICC" The sponsor noted that following Biden's decision to reverse the Trump policy, the ICC is now "engaged in a shameful lawfare campaign against Prime Minister Netanyahu for doing his duty to protect his fellow citizens from Hamas in the wake of the barbaric October 7th attacks".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 12:58 – "As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison."
Leadership Insight
Jesus warns against rushing to court - wisdom that protects operational freedom from predatory litigation. Businesses today face adversaries who weaponize lawsuits to extract settlements, destroy reputations, and bankrupt enterprises through legal costs alone. Operational freedom requires tort reform, loser-pays provisions, and protection from frivolous claims that use the courthouse as a tool of extortion rather than justice.

Placing America First by Prohibiting U.S. Funding for the United Nations and its Globalist Government Agenda which Infringe the Individual Liberties of Americans.

With CEA
The Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) amendment #68 to the "Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2025" would prohibit any funds from being used to pay any United States contribution to the United Nations or any affiliated agency of the United Nations. According to the sponsor, "despite making up less than 5 percent of the world's population, Americans remain the largest single state contributor to the U.N., footing around one-quarter of its multibillion-dollar budget". The sponsor also noted that "we pick up the lion's share of the tab, while unaccountable, international bureaucrats make the rules" and cited how "the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization recently cooked up a plan to take on backyard barbecues, burgers, and brats, demanding that Americans eat less beef, less pork, less poultry to reduce emissions".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:

Reducing Waste, Fraud and Abuse of Taxpayer Funds by Eliminating the "Unfunded Priorities List" - A Budget Scheme Only Deployed within the Department of Defense.

Against CEA
The Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) amendment #72 to the "Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2025" would prohibit funds from being used to create an "unfunded priorities list" or a wish list of things that individual commanders and generals would like to fund. According to the sponsor, "these wish lists are packed with billions of dollars of excessive line items, this year totaling more than $27.5 billion on top of the $850 billion requested by the White House and a 50 percent increase from last year." The sponsor also noted the lists "have not gone through the level of prioritization and vetting that all of the other things that come in the budget do" such as the White House Budget request where "the Commander in Chief, in consultation with top military brass, determines what is necessary to defend the country based on a holistic analysis of our national security needs".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 21:20 – "The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down."

Wise leaders prepare in prosperity for challenges ahead. Godly economics values foresight over indulgence. Savings is not fear - it’s faith in future stewardship.

Safeguarding Democracy by Defunding Biden's Executive Order that Utilizes Taxpayer Resources to Advance Partisan Politics through Voter Mobilization Activities.

With CEA
The Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) amendment #163 to the "Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2025" prohibits funds from being used to enforce President Biden's Executive Order # 14019, "Promoting Access to Voting". According to the sponsor, the executive order empowers federal agencies to use taxpayer funds to implement or enter into agreements with partisan organizations that conduct voter mobilization activities.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 22:36 – "He said to them, 'But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.'"
Leadership Insight
Jesus affirms the right to self-defense. Preparedness is not paranoia - it's stewardship of safety. Leaders who defend the Second Amendment defend the biblical principle that protection is both a right and a responsibility. Security begins with the citizen, not the state.

Blocking a Draconian Regulation that Forces Federal Contractors to Disclose Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Submit "Climate Targets" to an Entity Tied to Democratic Donors and George Soros.

With CEA
The Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) amendment #164 to the "Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2025" prohibits any funding to implement the Federal Acquisition Regulation Council's proposed 'Federal Acquisition Regulation: Disclosure of Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Climate-Related Financial Risk' rule. This rule requires all Federal contractors that do business of more than $50 million with the Federal Government to disclose all scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. This includes everything from emissions produced by the contractor (scope 1) to the emissions produced by things such as office supplies that they buy for their employees (scope 3). The rule also requires companies to comply with the Paris climate accords and set climate targets, which are then to be validated by a company called Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). According to the sponsor, SBTi is tied to the New Venture Fund, a left-wing dark money network funded by George Soros.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 11:1 – "The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with Him."

Protecting Taxpayers by Defunding the Department of Energy "Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program" which Enriches the Electric Vehicle Industry.

With CEA
The Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) amendment #43 to the "Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" eliminates funding ($18 million) for the administration of the Department of Energy Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program. According to the sponsor, this program "provides loans to companies that make Green New Deal cars" and has recklessly spent over $1 trillion, including $8 billion in subsidies on electric vehicle chargers.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Haggai 1:6 – "You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it."
Leadership Insight
When priorities drift from purpose, prosperity leaks away. God doesn’t bless motion - He blesses alignment. Economic freedom begins when stewardship follows divine order.

Protecting Taxpayers by Defunding a Crony Department of Energy Loan Program which has Enriched Chinese Companies at the Expense of American Taxpayers.

With CEA
The Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) amendment #44 to the "Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" eliminates funding ($55 million) for the administration of the Department of Energy Title 17 Loan Program. According to the sponsor, the program reduces market discipline and has cost taxpayers many hundreds of millions, with some of the most egregious examples including Solyndra, Fisker Automotive and A123 Systems. The sponsor also noted that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was the ultimate beneficiary, as following the bankruptcies of Fisker and A123, the Chinese purchased the companies for pennies on the dollar.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Isaiah 10:1-2 – "Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless."
Leadership Insight
God pronounces woe on lawmakers who craft economic policies that oppress the poor through excessive taxation, regulatory barriers to entry, and cronyism that favors the connected over the capable. Economic freedom is justice for the poor - when the working class keeps more of their earnings, when small businesses can compete without crushing compliance costs, and when families can build wealth without government extraction. Unjust economic laws always hit the poor hardest.
H.R. 8997 (Roy Amd. 54)House 20243x

Defunding a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Rule which Hikes Electricity Rates and Infringes Property Rights to Construct Unneeded Transmission Lines for Renewable Energy.

With CEA
The Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) amendment #54 to the "Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" prohibits funds for Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Order No. 1920. According to the sponsor, this order forces everyday Americans to subsidize the cost of transmission lines so renewable energy developers can reap the benefits of billions of dollars in Federal subsidies.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 29:2 – "When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan."
Leadership Insight
Righteous economic leadership creates prosperity that lifts all people; wicked rulers impose taxation, regulation, and cronyism that make the people groan. Economic freedom flourishes under leaders who fear God and protect property rights. When government becomes extractive rather than protective, citizens suffer under the weight of policies designed to benefit the powerful rather than serve the productive.
H.R. 8997 (Roy Amd. 56)House 20243x

Defunding the DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy which Actively Promotes "Energy Equity" and "Environmental Justice".

With CEA
The Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) amendment #56 to the "Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" fully defunds the Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE). The sponsor noted the "office's mission is to equitably transition America to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions economy-wide by no later than 2050." According to the sponsor, the office is "woke" and "actively promotes divisive concepts like energy equity and environmental justice".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 11:1 – "The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with Him."
Leadership Insight
Integrity in business is not optional - it’s spiritual obedience. Every transaction reflects the character of the Kingdom. Honesty is Heaven’s currency for influence.

Strengthening Government Integrity by Blocking Expenditures Within the $27 Billion Greenhouse Gas Reduction Slush Fund.

With CEA
The Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) amendment #18 to the "Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" prevents funds from being used to implement, administer, or enforce section 134 of the Clean Air Act. This section of the act pertains to the EPA greenhouse gas reduction fund created under the Inflation Reduction Act. According to the sponsor, this $27 billion dollar fund is more than three times the EPA's entire fiscal year 2023 appropriation and "sends taxpayer dollars to far-left political organizations and-their favorite-the Chinese Communist Party."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Genesis 1:28 – "God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.'"
Leadership Insight
The dominion mandate establishes human authority as divinely ordained, not culturally negotiated. Leaders who honor this calling protect family, life, and liberty as sacred responsibilities. Subduing the earth means cultivating, not exploiting - stewarding with purpose.
H.R. 8998 (Brecheen Amd. 24)House 20243x

Cutting $12 Million in Taxpayer Funding to the Wilson Center - A Political Non-Profit with Extremist Abortion and Immigration Positions.

With CEA
The Rep. Josh Brecheen (R-OK) amendment #24 to the "Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" strikes the $12 million the bill provided to the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. According to the sponsor, the Wilson Center is a "far-left organization dedicated, much like President Wilson, to far-left values around the world". The sponsor cited events where the Wilson Center "promoted 'safe abortion' access around the world, claiming that denying abortion is violence" and Wilson Center articles "that suggested Europe should accept unfettered mass immigration, claiming that blocking illegal immigration is 'far right."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Deuteronomy 16:18-20 – "Appoint judges and officials for each of your tribes in every town the Lord your God is giving you, and they shall judge the people fairly. Do not pervert justice or show partiality. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the innocent. Follow justice and justice alone, so that you may live and possess the land the Lord your God is giving you."
Leadership Insight
Moses commands impartial justice - judges who follow "justice alone" without showing partiality. First Freedom depends on courts that protect religious liberty impartially, without favoring secular ideology over sincere faith. When judges show partiality against religious conviction, accepting the cultural bribes of elite approval, they pervert the justice God demands. First Freedom requires judges who fear God more than cultural pressure.
H.R. 8998 (Brecheen Amd. 25)House 20242x

Banning Funding for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) within the Department of Interior Appropriations Bill.

With CEA
The Rep. Josh Brecheen (R-OK) amendment #25 to the "Department of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2025" prohibits funding within the bill from being used for any diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program or office. According to the sponsor, the amendment is necessary as the Department of the Interior has a DEI office and DEI officers "who train their staff on how to be racist toward White people". The sponsor also noted the National Endowment for the Arts has an equity officer, Nicole Phillips, whose "job is dedicated to advancing racism".
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Galatians 3:28 – "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
Leadership Insight
Paul declares that social distinctions - including the slave/free distinction - do not determine value in Christ. Workforce freedom applies this truth: every worker deserves the right to negotiate freely, to keep their wages, and to be free from coercive systems that treat them as collective property rather than individual image-bearers. Forced union membership contradicts this gospel vision by treating workers as categories to be controlled rather than individuals to be respected.
H.RES. 1061House 20243x

Fueling Out-of-Control Spending Through a Budget Bill Filled with Waste and Funding Earmarked for Pet Projects of Lawmakers.

Against CEA
The "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024" sponsored by Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX) is a $460 billion minibus funding several government agencies through Fiscal Year 2024. Overall spending levels are generally flat compared to the prior year with increases for some agencies and decreases for others. For example, the bill provides a 10% cut to the EPA, 7% cut to ATF, and a 6% cut to the FBI. However, the bill continues to fund the Essential Air Service program and contains countless earmarks which fund pet projects of lawmakers, especially at the Army Corps of Engineers where spending is increased 7-fold. The bill also provides increased spending for a number of welfare programs such as WIC, plus $3.3 billion for community development block grants. Furthermore, hundreds of millions of dollars are directed to fight climate change through carbon capture. Note: two Democratic lawmakers who opposed the bill were marked as "X" due to the fact their opposition was not the spending but rather minor provisions pertaining to gun control.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
1 Samuel 8:10-18 – "Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. He said, 'This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots... He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants... and you yourselves will become his slaves'"
Leadership Insight
Centralized power always demands sacrifice from the people. God warned Israel that human kings would grow government at the expense of liberty. Limited government protects freedom; expansive government enslaves. Leaders must resist the temptation to control what they should serve.

Overturning a Biden Administration Rule Making it Cost Prohibitive for Banks to Hold Crypto-Currencies for their Customers.

Neutral
This resolution introduced by Rep. Mike Flood (R-NE) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022, titled "Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121". This rule requires financial institutions and firms that are safeguarding their customers' digital assets (such as crypto-currency) to hold the assets on their balance sheet. The rule has received criticism due to the fact the regulations makes it cost prohibitive for banks and other financial institutions to serve as custodians for digital assets.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Leviticus 25:10 – "Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan."
Leadership Insight
The Year of Jubilee proclaimed economic liberty - restoration of property, cancellation of debts, and freedom from bondage. Economic freedom follows this biblical pattern: protecting property rights, enabling debt relief through bankruptcy rather than permanent servitude, and ensuring families can rebuild wealth across generations. Government policies that permanently trap families in poverty, extract generational wealth through death taxes, or prevent property ownership contradict Jubilee's vision of economic restoration.
H.J. RES. 136House 20243x

Blocking Biden Administration Mandates that Force 70% of New Car Sales to be Electric by 2032.

Neutral
This resolution introduced by Rep. John James (R-MI) utilizes the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to nullify a Biden administration rule issued by the Environmental Protection Agency on April 18, 2024, titled "Multi-Pollutant Emissions Standards for Model Years 2027 and Later Light-Duty and Medium-Duty Vehicles". This rule, which requires roughly 70% of new car and truck sales to be electric in less than 10 years, imposes much stricter emission standards for cars and light-duty trucks.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Exodus 1:17 – "The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live."
Leadership Insight
The Hebrew midwives ran small businesses providing essential services - and Pharaoh demanded they weaponize their commerce against the innocent. Economic freedom includes the right to refuse government mandates that violate conscience or harm others. When the state commands businesses to participate in evil, faithful entrepreneurs must resist. Economic liberty is not unlimited - it is bounded by moral duty to God, not government.
H.R. 10545House 20243x

Fueling Out-of-Control Spending through a Government Funding Package Containing Over $100 Billion in Disaster Aid and Farm Subsidies with No Fiscal Offsets.

Neutral
The final version of the "American Relief Act, 2025" passed on December 20, 2024 and sponsored by Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK) would fund the government through March 14, 2025. The bill also includes more than $100 billion in disaster aid and $10 billion in economic aid to farmers, as well as an extension of the farm bill through Sept. 30, 2025. This version of the bill does not include a two-year suspension of the debt limit as had been advocated by President-elect Trump.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 14:28-30 – "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
Leadership Insight
Vision must meet calculation. God honors leaders who count costs before claiming promises. Stewardship without foresight breeds collapse.
H.R. 115House 20245x

Advancing the Elimination of $1.34 Trillion of Biden Administration Regulations through the "Midnight Rules Relief Act".

Neutral
The "Midnight Rules Relief Act" sponsored by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) allows Congress to disapprove multiple regulations under one joint resolution of disapproval if the regulations were submitted for review during the last 60 legislative days of the final year of a President's term. Currently, each joint resolution may disapprove of only one regulation. According to the sponsor, the bill "allows Congress to rein in unelected bureaucrats. Biden's bureaucrats imposed more than $1.34 trillion in regulations in 2024 alone."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Isaiah 10:1-2 – "Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless."
Leadership Insight
God pronounces woe on lawmakers who craft economic policies that oppress the poor through excessive taxation, regulatory barriers to entry, and cronyism that favors the connected over the capable. Economic freedom is justice for the poor - when the working class keeps more of their earnings, when small businesses can compete without crushing compliance costs, and when families can build wealth without government extraction. Unjust economic laws always hit the poor hardest.

Condemning Calls to "Defund the Police" and Expressing Condolences to Law Enforcement Officers who Made the Ultimate Sacrifice in the Line of Duty.

Neutral
This resolution introduced by Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MI) condemns calls to defund the police and recognizes that law enforcement officers must have the equipment, training, and resources necessary to protect the health and safety of the public and their fellow law enforcement officers. The resolution also expresses condolences and appreciation to the loved ones of each law enforcement officer who has made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
H.R. 1398House 20241x

Strengthening National Security and Intellectual Property Rights through the "Protect America's Innovation and Economic Security from CCP Act".

Neutral
The "Protect America's Innovation and Economic Security from CCP Act" sponsored by Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) would reestablish the "China Initiative" at the Department of Justice (DOJ), which the Biden administration ended in 2022. Under the bill, the program is renamed the "CCP Initiative" and will (1) counter nation-state threats to the United States; (2) curb spying by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on U.S. intellectual property and academic institutions; (3) identify and prosecute individuals engaged in trade secret theft, hacking, and economic espionage; and (4) protect U.S. critical infrastructure from foreign threats.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 21:15 – "When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers."
Leadership Insight
Justice is not neutral - it rewards righteousness and confronts evil. Leaders who execute justice faithfully create cultures where virtue thrives and corruption fears. Moral clarity strengthens societies; moral ambiguity weakens them.
H.R. 1425House 20243x

Ensuring Americans Maintain Control over Public Health Policy and Not the World Health Organization Through the "No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act".

Neutral
The "No WHO Pandemic Preparedness Treaty Without Senate Approval Act" sponsored by Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) would require any agreement on pandemic prevention or response reached by the World Health Organization (WHO) to be approved by a two-thirds majority of the U.S. Senate. According to the sponsor, the bill is aimed at protecting American sovereignty against the WHO.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 14:3-4 – "The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall."
Leadership Insight
Paul's protection of conscience applies directly to healthcare freedom. No government or employer has authority to mandate medical treatments, vaccines, or procedures that violate sincere religious or moral conviction. Healthcare freedom means patients and providers can follow conscience in medical decisions without coercion, contempt, or punishment. When healthcare mandates override conscience, they violate the biblical principle that each person is accountable to their own Master.
H.R. 1449House 20243x

Advancing American Energy Dominance by Requiring the Department of Interior to Hold More Frequent Lease Sales and Speed up the Permitting Process through the "CLEAN Act".

Neutral
The "Committing Leases for Energy Access Now (CLEAN) Act" sponsored by Rep. Russ Fulcher (R-ID) would require the Department of Interior (DOI) to hold lease sales every year, rather than every two years. Additionally, the bill helps speed up the permit process for lease sales by setting a 30-day deadline for the DOI to notify an applicant if a permit has been approved. According to the sponsor, the bill "will hold the Department of Interior accountable and is key to bolstering domestic energy production, reducing our reliance on foreign adversaries and meeting America's growing energy demands."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 31:16 – "She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard."
Leadership Insight
The Proverbs 31 woman models entrepreneurial excellence and economic freedom. God honors women who steward resources wisely and create wealth through diligence. Leadership values capability over cultural limitations - competence creates opportunity.
