What they stand for
McBath has spent time focused on a few core fights. Each is tied to bills actually introduced or votes actually cast.
- 01Supports federal restrictions on firearms accessMcBath has sponsored multiple bills directed at restricting access to certain firearms and establishing new federal intervention tools. She sponsored the Federal Extreme Risk Protection Order Act in both 2023 and 2026 (HR.3018, HR.7599), which would establish a federal framework for risk-based firearms removal orders. She also sponsored the Assault Weapons Ban of 2025 (HR.3115) and the GOSAFE Act (HR.2790), each addressing the manufacture or possession of specific categories of firearms.
- 02Supports expanding nutrition benefits for new mothersMcBath has sponsored the Extending WIC for New Moms Act in two congresses (HR.3332, HR.8055), legislation that would extend Women, Infants, and Children program benefits for postpartum participants. The bills each attracted more than 50 cosponsors, indicating broad co-sponsorship support within her caucus.
- 03Supports federal family violence prevention servicesMcBath sponsored the Family Violence Prevention and Services Improvement Act in 2023 and reintroduced it in 2026 (HR.2604, HR.7333). These bills would amend the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act, directing changes to federally supported services and funding structures for individuals affected by domestic violence.
- 04Supports workforce education and adult learning programsMcBath has sponsored the Preparing And Retaining All (PARA) Educators Act (HR.5476), directed at educator recruitment and retention, as well as the Adult Education WORKS Act (HR.2789) and a bill to amend the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (HR.1132), both aimed at expanding access to adult education and workforce development programs.
- 05Supports federal oversight of prison conditionsMcBath sponsored the Federal Prison Oversight Act (HR.3019), which became law. The legislation established new oversight mechanisms for federal correctional facilities. She also sponsored the Stop Campus Hazing Act (HR.5646), another enacted measure, which addressed hazing-related conduct at institutions of higher education.
