Steube Votes No on H.Res. 183

“Today, I voted against H. Res. 183 because it failed to specifically condemn the remarks made by Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-Minn). Her vile, anti-Semitic remarks should have been specifically condemned in this resolution, but instead, my colleagues on the other side of the aisle decided to look the other way. I will not be complicit in the trivializing of her behavior. Anti-Semitic behavior of all forms must be condemned—that’s what this was about.”

Steube Introduces Bill to Study Radiation Effects on Enewetak Atoll Veterans

“As a Veteran and a member of the Veterans’ Affairs Committee, I know the importance of listening to Veterans to ensure they are receiving the care they deserve. This bill will direct the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to partner with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS) to conduct a small-scale study to review the findings from a previous radiation dose assessment (RDA) conducted by the Department of Defense (DOD). If there are discrepancies in the original RDA, I’m determined to get to the bottom of it.”

Steube Introduces Resolution to Commemorate the Bicentennial of the Adams-Onís Treaty

“It is important to commemorate this momentous anniversary. My hope is that with this Resolution we will shine a light on this often overlooked piece of American history.

Steube Convenes Water Quality Round Table

“Sound environmental policy is critical to the preservation and advancement of Florida’s economy and the way of life we enjoy as Floridians. Going back to my time in the state legislature, I have been dedicated to addressing Florida’s water quality issues by supporting infrastructure projects that address polluted runoff, as well as other environmental policy initiatives that protect our water and lands. Now, in Congress, I am doing everything I can to address these problems—red tide, Lake Okeechobee water levels, septic to sewer transitions in rural communities, etc.—and I’m committed to working with state, local, and federal officials to mitigate the troubling water issues our state has encountered.”

Democrats Reject Steube Amendment to Require Individuals Purchasing Firearms that Fail Background Checks to be Reported to Law Enforcement

“Clearly, the Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee don’t care about preventing gun violence, they simply are playing politics with Americans’ Second Amendment rights. The fact that Democrats do not want law enforcement notified if an individual attempting to purchase a firearm fails a background check is truly troubling.”
