U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyoming, is championing a bill that would limit presidents in making major policy rules and allow federal agencies much less power to set their own regulations.
The Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny (REINS) Act would require congressional approval for all major rules that have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more.
Montana Republican Rep. Matt Rosendale introduced legislation Monday evening that prohibits the Department of Defense (DOD) from paying for, hosting or supporting adult cabaret performances.
The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the bill, which defines an “adult cabaret performance” as a performance that features topless dancers, go-go dancers, exotic dances, strippers or male or female impersonators who provide entertainment that appeals to prurient interest.
President Joe Biden’s administration is doling out taxpayer money through an anti-terrorism grant initiative to a university program that hosted a conference where the Republican Party, as well as Christian and conservative groups, were lumped in with terrorist groups.
WASHINGTON D.C. — Congresswoman Harriet Hageman voted against H.R. 3746, a bill that would raise the debt ceiling by an unspecified amount and establish the FY 2023 appropriations, so called “Inflation Reduction Act”, and COVID era emergency bills passed by Biden/Pelosi/Schumer as the baseline for future government spending.
Wyoming’s lone Representative in the House, Harriet Hageman joined Mac Watson on “Mac In The Morning” on KODI-AM/FM this morning to talk about some important developments going on in Congress.
For decades Dave Belus and his family have ranched across Johnson County, grazing their cattle on a patchwork of private and Bureau of Land Management land.
But as the BLM moves toward a new Public Lands Rule that could put land conservation on an equal footing with other uses, ranchers like Belus are questioning the impact to their business and way of life.
Wyoming’s Rep. Harriet Hageman joined Republicans and Democrats in voting against the new debt ceiling agreement, which cleared the U.S. House by a wide margin Wednesday night.
The bill, called the Fiscal Responsibility Act, now goes to the Senate ahead of a Monday deadline to move the legislation before the nation defaults on its debt — a situation that would spell economic catastrophe for the U.S. and the world.
U.S. Rep. Harriet Hageman says the debt ceiling deal that passed the U.S. House on Wednesday night doesn’t do enough to cut federal spending or take power out of Washington, D.C., and return it to the people.
“H.R. 3746 provides more deference to agency bureaucrats to make new rules, with the cost of those rules placed on the backs of private businesses and individuals,” she said in a press release.
Fighting against big government and “unelected bureaucrats” have become hallmark slogans for Hageman since taking office five months ago.
A bill that raises the debt ceiling limit passed in the House by a wide margin late Wednesday. Now the bill is being sent to the Senate for a vote, just days before Monday’s U.S. default deadline.
The Fiscal Responsibility Act passed 314-117, with support from both Democrats and Republicans.
But not everyone is happy with the contents of the bill.
