01 · Background
Who they are, where they came from
Brendan F. Boyle represents Pennsylvania's 2nd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, a seat he has held since January 6, 2015, serving successive districts in the Philadelphia area as a member of the Democratic Party. Boyle has sponsored legislation on federal budget process reform, including the Debt Ceiling Reform Act (HR.3953; HR.4634), which would modify the procedures by which Congress addresses the federal debt limit. He has introduced multiple versions of the Tax Fairness for Workers Act (HR.4963; HR.2671), a bill that would alter tax treatment for workers, which has drawn over 200 cosponsors in its most recent iteration. He also sponsored the Medicare and Social Security Fair Share Act (HR.3271), addressing payroll tax contributions in relation to Medicare and Social Security, and the Labor Market Response Act (HR.5380), focused on labor market policy. Among enacted measures, Boyle sponsored HR.6073, designating a U.S. Postal Service facility in his district, and HR.7032, the Congressional Budget Office Data Sharing Act, which became law and expanded data-sharing authorities for the Congressional Budget Office.
