2019

January 2019:

• Summary: The federal government was partially shut down as the year began, and Conference highlighted Speaker Pelosi’s hypocrisy in refusing to secure the border. The Speaker even called border security an “immorality.” Some of her members felt increased pressure after news reports found that they took a trip to Puerto Rico while the government was shut down.

February 2019:

• Summary: Conference continued to expose the failure and radical nature of House Democrats’ policies, specifically on the absurd Green New Deal summary published by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that called for eliminating air travel, retrofitting every single building in the country, and addressing flatulence from cows to address climate change. House Republicans stood together to condemn anti-Semitic remarks made by Rep. Ilhan Omar, and held House Democrats accountable for refusing to criticize her offensive rhetoric.

March 2019:

• Summary: House Democrats pushed through H.R. 1 – a bill to empower Democrat politicians and enact taxpayer-funded campaigns. House Republicans stood with Leader McConnell to highlight the negative features of this legislation, and worked harder than Democrats to appropriately define it. House Democrats began their obsession with impeachment, while the Mueller Report’s findings, which were initially disclosed at the beginning of the month, found no collusion.

April 2019:

• Summary: As Democrats hit their first 100 days in the House Majority, Conference explained how their embrace of socialist policies was severely hurting our nation. House Republicans also formally filed a discharge petition on the Born-Alive Survivors Protection Act after Democrat politicians endorsed policies that were tantamount to infanticide and refused to allow for a floor vote on legislation that would outlaw this heinous practice.

May 2019:

• Summary: Democrats remained obsession with impeachment instead of focusing on solving problems for the American people, forcing NBC News to ask what they had to show for their majority five months in. Republicans explained to the country how Democrats were not working in the country’s best interest or paying attention to the issues that were important to voters, and also argued that the partisan prescription drug bill that the Speaker brought to the floor would undermine the country’s effort to develop cures, therapeutics, and vaccines.

June 2019:

• Summary: Conference emphasized the importance of border security, while Speaker Pelosi and Democrats blocked emergency funding to address the “humanitarian and security crisis” on the southern border. Eventually, Speaker Pelosi finally caved and passed legislation providing these resources after threatening to block the bill in the House despite it passing the Senate 84-8. Her defeat on this issue was characterized as a “striking defeat,” for her speakership and marked continued division within the House Democratic caucus.

July 2019:

• Summary: Speaker Pelosi made offensive comments on the House floor attacking President Trump that created a firestorm for her caucus. Republicans also pointed out how half of the House Democratic Caucus remained obsessed with impeaching the President instead of focusing on solving problems, even after the Judiciary Committee hearing with Robert Mueller only refuted the case for moving forward with impeachment.

September 2019:

• Summary: Conference worked immediately and aggressively to counter House Democrats’ baseless impeachment narrative. We made clear that Democrats were not pursuing impeachment because of a phone call, but used research and facts to explain that they had wanted to impeach President Trump since the day he was elected, and were attempting to fulfill a political goal by removing him from office instead of upholding their oath to the Constitution.

October 2019:

• Summary: We focused on the facts of impeachment and ensured that the American people understood that Intel Chairman Adam Schiff and House Democrats were conducting the process behind closed doors, with the public unable to review or see the testimony. We also emphasized how the entire process was unfair to the President and unconstitutional, further proving that Democrats’ effort on the whole was political in nature.

December 2019:  

• Summary: Conference emphasized that Democrats failed to prove their impeachment case, and wasted both the Intel Committee and the country’s time on this baseless political effort instead of working on important issues. Ultimately, there was a bipartisan vote against impeachment, making clear that Democrats abused their power, abdicated their oath of office, and abandoned their obligation to the Constitution by approving this resolution.

2020

January 2020:

• Summary: Conference exposed Speaker Pelosi’s hypocrisy for rushing impeachment in 2019 by claiming it was in the interest of national security, but then refusing to transmit the articles of impeachment to the Senate. When she ultimately chose to transmit the articles, she held an elaborate signing ceremony and handed out pens to celebrate the occasion, proving that their efforts were political and not a “serious” and “solemn” duty as they claimed.

February 2020:

• Summary: After President Trump delivered his State of the Union Address emphasizing our historically strong economy and heroic stories of individual Americans, Speaker Pelosi tore up his remarks, dishonoring the brave Americans who the President cited in his speech. The Democratic presidential primary also showed how their party was embracing a radical form of socialism that would devastate the nation.

March 2020:

• Summary: Republicans emphasized the importance of taking the spread of COVID-19 seriously and encouraged constituents to take appropriate safety measures. We shared information with offices and constituents about the emergency legislation passed by Congress to address the pandemic, and exposed comments from Democrats who said that they wanted to use this historic crisis as “an opportunity” to enact their agenda. Additionally, Speaker Pelosi faced strong criticism after she slowed down negotiations over the CARES Act and prevented it from passing for several days in an unsuccessful effort to try and include a number of non-coronavirus-related provisions in the final legislation.

May 2020:

•  Summary: Republicans messaged aggressively against a bill Speaker Pelosi brought to the floor that amounted to an irresponsible $3.4T partisan wishlist. Speaker Pelosi was criticized by even her own members for failing to bring a serious legislative proposal in the midst of the crisis. We also held Democrats accountable for evading their responsibilities to their constituents and implementing an unconstitutional proxy voting scheme, using it as an excuse to attend campaign events and even a rocket launch. Additionally, while Republicans focused on holding China accountable for the virus, Speaker Pelosi called those efforts “a diversion.”

June 2020:

• Summary: House Republicans held Democrats accountable for refusing to condemn, denounce or distance themselves from the dangerous “defund the police” movement, and also highlighted how Speaker Pelosi chose to promote a partisan messaging bill instead of working with Republicans on a policing bill that could become law. Democrats also continued their embrace of far-left Green New Deal principles in their ridiculous highway bill.

July 2020:

• Summary: Conference continued to hold Democrats accountable for their repeated disdain for the police, and highlighted how Speaker Pelosi seemingly condoned violent riots taking place across the country saying “people will do what they do.” The Speaker also continued to face criticism for continuing to pursue her partisan wishlist, instead of working in a bipartisan fashion to pass key coronavirus relief that the country needed.

August 2020:

• Summary: Republicans explained that Speaker Pelosi could not be trusted to govern responsibly since she continued to demand passage of her $3.4T wishlist full of far-left priorities, instead of working towards a bipartisan deal. Her own members criticized her negotiating tactics and her refusal to make a deal. Instead of calling Congress back to working towards a commonsense agreement, Speaker Pelosi forced the House back into session to vote on a crisis manufactured by Democrats related to the Post Office. Republicans pointed out that all evidence showed that there was no pressing crisis with the USPS and Democrats were only alleging that there was one to undermine the integrity of the 2020 election. Additionally, House Republicans launched Fighting for America, a new campaign to highlight stories of House GOP members working across the country to bring safety and security to our communities, defeat the virus, bring back our economy, and defend the nation.

September 2020:

• Summary: Speaker Pelosi’s actions were so partisan that her own members criticized her for blocking a COVID-19 relief deal, and for forcing Senate Democrats to block a targeted, common sense proposal. Later, while Republicans worked to get additional PPP funding to small businesses that needed it, Speaker Pelosi discouraged her members from signing a GOP discharge petition. She also proposed new legislation full of far-left priorities to address COVID-19, proving that she was prioritizing her party’s political priorities instead of working across the aisle to bring to the floor legislation that could pass.

October 2020:

• Summary: Republicans continued to show that Democrats were not serious about providing COVID relief to the American people since they chose to double-down on Speaker Pelosi’s all-or-nothing approach and filibuster a targeted COVID relief bill in the Senate that would have provided important relief for the American people. While House Republicans tried 39 times to pass legislation that would allow small businesses to access unspent PPP funds, Democrats blocked it every time in a sign that their caucus was more interested in playing politics than providing key relief for Americans that needed it.
