Taking the Top Off the Ticket

ACPPA’s Analysis of How Your Representatives and Senators Voted on Issues that Matter to the Industry

The 2016 presidential election campaign has been full of surprises. Between the unforeseen rise of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and the expected, but tortuous and controversial, road to the Democratic nomination taken by Hillary Clinton, few could have predicted the events of this political cycle. In the countless column inches, web posts and social media updates committed already to the wildness on top of the ticket, it can be easy to overlook the many congressional races vying for attention. With the entire House of Representatives and 34 Senate seats up for election on Nov. 8, conscientious voters must focus through the noise radiating from the presidential candidates and invest in their current and prospective members of Congress. ACPPA’s highest priority in Washington, D.C. is advancing legislation to strengthen federal water infrastructure programs. Unfortunately, this Congress has yet to cast any votes on drinking water or sewer bills. However, over the past two years, lawmakers in both chambers have voted on other issues of importance to ACPPA members, in particular highway funding, taxes, energy pipelines, and reigning in federal regulatory overreach.

Making an Informed Decision

The voting charts in this report card provide an objective measure of how lawmakers voted on those issues. These issues represent only a portion of each lawmaker’s record for this Congress; the House and Senate combined to vote on hundreds of measures over the past two years. While the votes listed in this piece are important, there are of course other factors you should consider when casting your ballot in the upcoming election, such as a candidate’s character, professional qualifications or positions on other issues that matter to you personally. ACPPA’s analysis should neither be read as an endorsement of any candidate, nor as a statement of opposition to a lawmaker’s reelection. As you analyze this information, it is important to remember that legislation is rarely simple and almost never straightforward. While a bill may contain important provisions for a manufacturing or construction company, unrelated issues may cause a member of Congress to vote no. Finally, remember that not all members served the entirety of the 114th Congress. In these circumstances, their vote totals may be skewed because they cast fewer votes than their colleagues.

This chart provides a quick reference to allow you to see where your elected officials stood on issues that affect you professionally. When you encounter candidates on the campaign trail – place you will find them more and more over the next couple months – use this information as a starting point for a conversation with incumbents about why they voted as they did and to inquire of challengers how they would have acted had they been in office. When you reach the ballot box or step into the voting booth, remember how they’ve represented your interests.

ACPPA Legislative Scorecard – 114th Congress – About the Bills

Votes in the House of Representatives

1. Surface Transportation Reauthorization & Reform Act (H.R. 22) House Vote: 114-1-624, Nov. 5, 2015 (as “STRR Act”) Senate Vote: 114-1-260, July 30, 2015 (as “DRIVE Act”) ACPPA Position: Yes Following consideration of more than 100 amendments, the House approved its version of a highway reauthorization bill - the Surface Transportation Reauthorization & Reform (the STRR Act), 363 to 64. The legislation provided $325 billion for roads, bridges and transit infrastructure. However, under the bill, the duration of the authorization – six years or three – would depend on Congress’ ability to come up with a way to pay for the final three years. Similar to the Senate-passed DRIVE Act (see discussion in Senate Vote #1), which provided three-years of guaranteed investment in a six-year authorization, the STRR Act was essentially a three-year proposal. The STRR Act’s passage resulted in the appointment of a House-Senate conference committee to determine the investment blueprint’s exact duration and funding levels. 2. FAST Act (H.R. 22) House Vote: 114-1-673, Dec. 3, 2015 Senate Vote: 114-1-331, Dec. 3, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes Following conference committee negotiations to reconcile differences between the House (STRR Act) and the Senate (DRIVE Act) surface transportation reauthorization proposals, conferees agreed to the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, a five-year transportation authorization bill. On Dec. 3, 2015, the House overwhelmingly passed the FAST Act, 359-65.

3. Keystone XL Pipeline Approval Act (S. 1) House Vote: 114-1-75, Feb 11, 2015 Senate Vote: 114-1-49, Jan. 29, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes While the Keystone XL Pipeline’s construction was expected to create thousands of jobs and stimulate significant economic activity, the Obama administration delayed approval (and eventually rejected it) because of perceived environmental concerns. The Keystone XL Pipeline Approval Act (S. 1) would have superseded

August 29, 2016 Actionline Page 3 of 19

presidential authority to issue the Keystone XL pipeline’s permit. It passed the House with bipartisan support (270 - 152) and the Senate, but the bill was vetoed by President Obama and the efforts supporters didn’t have a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate to override it. 4. PATH Act (H.R. 2029) House Vote: 114-1-703, Dec. 17, 2015 Senate Vote: 114-1-339, Dec. 18, 2015 (Combined vote with Consolidated Approps Act) ACPPA Position: Yes Despite promising to complete work to reinstate expired business tax provisions early in 2015, lawmakers once again waited until the end of the year to consider a tax extenders package. However, it was worth the wait as Congress approved the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, which temporarily reinstated bonus depreciation and permanently increased and indexed Sec. 179 expensing levels. The House approved the PATH Act, 318-109.

5. “Devolution” Amendment to FAST Act Proposed by Rep. DeSantis of Florida (H. Amdt. 802) House Vote: 114-1-606, Nov. 4, 2015 Senate Vote: None ACPPA Position: No While not as prevalent as the last Congress, once again, proponents of reducing the federal role in surface transportation investment attempted to attach harmful amendments to highway reauthorization legislation. Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) sought to amend the STRR Act with a “sense of Congress” (a non-binding resolution) declaring “it is critical for Congress to phase down the federal gas and diesel taxes and empower the states to tax and regulate their highway and infrastructure projects.” The amendment, while not obligatory, was viewed by the business community and transportation advocates as a dangerous step toward full devolution of the federal highway program. The resolution was defeated handily, 310-118.

Votes in the Senate

1. DRIVE Act (H.R. 22) House Vote: 114-1-624, Nov. 5, 2015 (as “STRR Act”) Senate Vote: 114-1-260, July 30, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes In a bipartisan effort during a congressional session marred by partisanship and gridlock, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), Environment & Public Works (EPW) Committee Chairman Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), EPW Ranking Member Barbara Boxer (R-Calif.) and others, pushed through the Senate the Developing a Reliable and Innovative Vision for the Economy Act (DRIVE Act), a six-year highway reauthorization bill. The legislation would have modestly increased annual funding for surface transportation infrastructure, but provided only three years of guaranteed revenue to give lawmakers time to identify a long-term Highway Trust Fund solution. While the DRIVE Act didn’t become law, the effort is credited with

August 29, 2016 Actionline Page 4 of 19

pressuring the House to complete work on its own highway reauthorization bill, which ultimately led to the FAST Act enactment later in the year. (see House/Senate Vote #2). 2. FAST Act (H.R. 22) House Vote: 114-1-673, Dec. 3, 2015 Senate Vote: 114-1-331, Dec. 3, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes See discussion under House Vote #2. The Senate approved the FAST Act, 83-16.

3. Keystone XL Pipeline Approval Act (S. 1) House Vote: 114-1-75, Feb 11, 2015 Senate Vote: 114-1-49, Jan. 29, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes See discussion under House Vote #3. The Senate approved the KXL Pipeline Approval Act, 62 – 36.

4. Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2016 and PATH Act (H.R. 2029) House Vote: 114-1-705, Dec. 18, 2015 (Consolidated Approps Act); 114-1-703, Dec. 17, 2015 (PATH Act) Senate Vote: 114-1-339, Dec. 18, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes Government funding battles headlined President Obama’s White House tenure and the 114th Congress was no exception. With the appropriations process broken, Congress needed to pass legislation funding the federal government before leaving for 2015. The so-called “omnibus” appropriations bill, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to keep the government open through Sept. 30, 2016, was the bookend to one of the most productive congressional months in recent memory (FAST Act, PATH Act, and omnibus all passed in just over two weeks). The omnibus passed the House, 316-113, and was combined with the PATH Act before the Senate approved the package, 65-33. See PATH Act discussion under House Vote #4. 5. Joint Resolution Disapproving of the Rule Redefining “Waters of the United States” (S.J. Res. 22) House Vote: 114-2-45, Jan. 13, 2016 Senate Vote: 114-1-297, Nov. 4, 2015 ACPPA Position: Yes In what has become the epitome of the Obama administration’s out-of-control regulatory agenda, on May 27, 2015, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Army Corps of Engineers issued their final “waters of the United States” rule, significantly expanding federal jurisdiction under the Clean Water Act (CWA). The new rule gives the EPA expansive new powers to regulate development, farming, mining and other activity in large swaths of the country. While the regulation has been challenged in court, Congress attempted to bring clarity to the situation by preventing the rule’s implementation. A joint congressional resolution was approved by the House (253-166) and the Senate (53-44). However, it was vetoed by President Obama and the efforts supporters didn’t have a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate to override it.
