Anthony D’Esposito

Rep. D’Esposito voted several times this Congress to rescind funding for the IRS to go after wealthy and corporate tax cheats to make them pay what they owe. 

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the Default on America Act, which would set harsher work requirements for SNAP recipients. 

Rep. D’Esposito voted to roll back National Labor Relations Board protections for workers with joint employers. According to a letter to Congress signed by the SEIU, CWA, and other labor groups, D’Esposito voted to overturn a rule that helps safeguard “the labor rights of millions of workers in subcontracted employment, ensuring that corporations cannot skirt the law simply by outsourcing responsibility for their workers.” 

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the Default on America Act, which included harsh new work requirements for Medicaid beneficiaries.

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the FY24 Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Act, which would have cut $14.7 billion from Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies, nearly 80% of the program’s 2023 funding. On the whole, the appropriations bill would have cut the Department of Education’s budget by 28% below FY23 levels. 

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the Lower Energy Costs Act, which would require the Bureau of Land Management to hold quarterly auctions for oil and gas leases. 

Rep. D’Esposito voted for H.R. 7700, the Stop Unaffordable Dishwasher Standards Act and for H.R. 7637, the Refrigerator Freedom Act, which repealed energy efficiency rules for dishwashers and refrigerators. He also voted for H.R. 6192, the Hands Off Our Home Appliances Act, which would make it more difficult for the Department of Energy to impose energy efficiency standards on home appliances and easier to revoke current ones. 

Rep. D’Esposito approved eight FY24 appropriations bills which contained extreme policy riders, which would create a “license to discriminate” against LGBTQ+ people.

Rep. D’Esposito approved seven FY25 appropriations bills which contain extreme policy riders, which would create a “license to discriminate” against LGBTQ+ people.

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the H.R. 5, the “Parents Bill of Rights Act,” which would require schools to contact parents about any accommodations for transgender students, including using their preferred names and pronouns. It would also require the schools to notify parents if their policy allows transgender students to participate in sports or use bathrooms that do not correspond with the gender on their birth certificate. 

Rep. D’Esposito voted for the Lower Energy Costs Act and for the Default on America Act, both of which would have repealed the climate provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act, which cut home energy costs, reduce emissions, and boost energy efficiency. These bills would increase the cost of energy efficiency upgrades for families and endanger thousands of clean energy jobs.

Since 2023, House Republicans have voted 42 times to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act, either in whole or in part, including through the Lower Energy Costs Act and the Default on America Act. 

Rep. D’Esposito approved seven FY24 appropriations bills, which contained extreme policy riders, which would block actions to bolster diversity, equity, and inclusion across the federal workforce.
