Pennsylvania Member of Congress Tracking Report (MoCTrack)

​Welcome to the Pennsylvania Member of Congress Tracking Report for the week ending November 10, 2019.  Congress was on recess this past week, so we did things a little differently.

With the Impeachment Inquiry moving into a new phase, we are seeing GOP politicians trotting out a whole lot of nonsense about Democrats doing nothing but impeachment.  So we’ve got the facts to refute that silly claim.  Right now the House has passed over ***THREE HUNDRED*** bills that Mitch McConnell is sitting on - he's not letting them move ahead in the Senate. Speaker Pelosi referred to it as the McConnell Graveyard.  We’ve take a closer look at thirty of those "graveyard" bills. They cover topics like:

• Election Security
• LGBTQ civil rights
• Dreamers
• Equal Pay
• Background Checks
• Climate Change
• Homeless Veterans
• Pension guarantees
• Raising the Minimum Wage
• Counterterrorism
• The Rape Kit Backlog
• Protections for people with Pre-existing conditions

And we have mini-recaps on dozens more bills!  They are short one-pagers, with key information like if a bill passed unanimously, had bipartisan co-sponsors or received bipartisan votes.

We hope you will find this information useful, and that the next time you see someone go on a “do nothing-Dems” tear, you’ll toss out info about some of these bills right back at them!

MoCTrack will be back with a normal report next week.
