What they stand for
Guest has spent time focused on a few core fights. Each is tied to bills actually introduced or votes actually cast.
- 01Honors military veterans through legislative recognitionGuest has repeatedly sponsored House resolutions calling on Americans to honor the service and sacrifice of military veterans on Veterans Day and Memorial Day. These resolutions, introduced across multiple Congresses, have each drawn broad cross-party cosponsor support numbering in the dozens to over one hundred members.
- 02Supports recognition of fallen law enforcement officersGuest has sponsored and reintroduced House resolutions memorializing law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. HRES.1226 drew 50 to 99 cosponsors and was reintroduced, reflecting consistent attention to this area across multiple legislative sessions. An earlier version, HRES.421, was also reintroduced.
- 03Voted against multiple continuing appropriations packagesGuest voted against final passage of several continuing resolution bills that ultimately became law, including HR.5860, HR.6363, HR.2872, HR.7463, and HR.9747. In each instance, his vote was recorded against the majority position of his party in the House.
- 04Addresses international drug trafficking and human smugglingGuest sponsored HR.4071, the Combatting International Drug Trafficking and Human Smuggling Partnership Act, a reintroduced measure directed at cross-border criminal activity involving drugs and human smuggling. The bill was referred to committee.
- 05Sponsors legislation on rural access and rural healthGuest sponsored HR.1692, the PATHS Act, a reintroduced bill addressing transportation access, and HR.3102, directing the Secretary of Health and Human Services to establish an office related to rural health services.
