NEFSA is proud to support @RepGolden's H.R. 9436 to ensure proper data is collected before enacting crushing regulations on commercial fishermen. We need accurate science to protect both commercial fishermen and marine life. Congress should vote yes on this common-sense legislation!

✅Congrats to leads @RepBenCline and @RepGolden for getting FCPA through Oversight today – and to the several #BipartisanFiscalForum (BFF) steering members who have lent this bill their support! The #BipartisanFiscalForum is creating the space for members to build trust + relationships to move common sense ideas like FCPA forward. ⤵️
🚨NEW: The Fiscal Contingency Preparedness Act (FCPA) passed the House @GOPoversight @OversightDems with an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote. 🗳️ Designed to provide lawmakers with forward-looking fiscal analysis, the bill would require the Treasury and OMB to conduct annual assessments of the government's fiscal resilience in the face of potential domestic or international emergencies. The bill has seen growing bipartisan support, and would be an important step towards ensuring our nation is prepared for future fiscal crises and economic instability. ➡️Learn more in our FAQ: crfb.org/blogs/fiscal-contin….

🚨NEW: @ProbSolveCaucus Endorses the Fiscal Contingency Preparedness Act ⤵️ The bill – led by @RepBenCline and @RepGolden in the House and @SenToddYoung and Sen. @MarkWarner in the Senate – would require annual assessments ("stress tests") of the government's fiscal resilience in the face of potential domestic or international emergencies. The Problem Solvers' endorsement underscores the importance of ensuring the U.S. is prepared for future stresses, especially given our increasingly unsustainable fiscal path. It is the latest in a series of bipartisan statements of support. ➡️Learn more: crfb.org/blogs/bipartisan-mo….

Thank you, @RepGolden, for standing up for federal workers and the families who rely on them. AFGE is proud to fight alongside leaders in Congress to affirm that federal workers must retain their right to collective bargaining.
Only a handful of the 600+ discharge petitions in the history of Congress have ever earned enough signatures to force a vote. Mine is now one of them. It’s a major accomplishment, but the ultimate goal still remains: We must reverse Trump’s executive order which represents the largest act of union-busting in American history. mainepublic.org/politics/202…

🚨MAJOR WIN🚨 We’ve hit enough signatures to force a vote on @RepGolden's Protecting America’s Workforce Act. This bill would overturn Trump’s EO stripping 1 million federal workers of their collective bargaining rights – the biggest act of union-busting in American history.
BREAKING NEWS: My discharge petition to force a vote on my Protecting America’s Workforce Act has officially received enough signatures. My bill overturns President Trump’s executive order to roll back federal workers’ collective bargaining rights. It was the single biggest act of union-busting in American history. I’m proud of the bipartisan coalition I’ve built to right this wrong — including the five Republicans who signed my discharge petition to force this vote. Solidarity forever. Now let’s finish the job.

🚨 We’re calling on all Members of Congress to sign @RepGolden’s discharge petition to force a vote on overturning Trump’s illegal EO stripping 1 million federal workers of their collective bargaining rights. If you stand with workers, now is the time to prove it.
America didn’t vote to gut workers rights. Today I stood with @RepJeffries, the @AFLCIO and members of the @Labor_Caucus and @USProgressives to urge my colleagues in Congress to force a vote on my bill to overturn Trump’s union-busting executive order.

We’re saying thanks again to @RepBrianFitz @RepGolden and all the signatories to this letter in support of union rights for patriotic American workers serving their country. This isn’t a partisan issue. It’s an American issue. 🇺🇸
Today, along with a group of my colleagues (@RepMikeLawler, @RepDonBacon, @RepMikeTurner, @RepLaLota, @RepGarbarino, @RepBresnahan, & Rep. Chris Smith), I called on President Trump to reconsider his Executive Order regarding collective bargaining rights of unionized federal workers. We support efforts to improve government efficiency—but applying sweeping national security exemptions to agencies like SSA, FCC, GSA, and HHS risks doing more harm than good. These agencies are vital to public service. Undermining collective bargaining in these spaces weakens morale, accountability, and performance. That’s why, alongside this letter, I introduced the Protect America’s Workforce Act with @RepGolden. This bipartisan bill restores a responsible, targeted approach—preserving bargaining rights and reinforcing the role that the worker’s voice plays in strengthening government. We don’t have to choose between security and fairness. We can—and must—protect both. Read our full letter below: ⬇️

The Trump Administration’s move to strip 700k federal workers of their union rights is among the most egregious acts of union-busting in history. We commend @RepGolden & @RepBrianFitz for standing up for workers' rights by introducing a bill to reverse this attack and restore collective bargaining for America's public servants.
