Moran has spent time focused on a few core fights. Each is tied to bills actually introduced or votes actually cast.
01
Opposes continuing appropriations resolutionsMoran voted against six continuing resolutions that ultimately became law — H.R.5860, H.R.6363, H.R.7463, H.R.2872, H.R.9747, and H.R.82 — each time casting a vote against the majority of his party. This pattern of votes on short-term government funding measures represents the most consistent and recurring voting behavior in his citable legislative record.
02
Supports a constitutional balanced budget requirementMoran sponsored H.J.RES.110, a joint resolution proposing a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The measure, introduced in committee, would constitutionally require the federal government to balance its budget. It has been reintroduced across congressional sessions.
03
Sponsors border security and immigration enforcement legislationMoran sponsored H.R.445, the Border Security Investment Act, which addresses physical and operational investments at the U.S. border, and H.R.3781, the Visa Overstays Penalties Act, which would impose penalties on individuals who remain in the United States beyond their authorized visa period. Both bills have been reintroduced and referred to committee.
04
Introduces trade and intellectual property legislationMoran sponsored H.R.1724, the No Dollars to Uyghur Forced Labor Act, which would restrict U.S. financial activity connected to forced labor practices involving Uyghur populations, and H.R.1574, the RESTORE Patent Rights Act of 2025, which addresses the scope of patent rights in U.S. law. Both bills were referred to committee.
05
Sponsors rural infrastructure and workforce development billsMoran sponsored H.R.4239, the Rural Weather Monitoring Systems Act, which addresses weather monitoring infrastructure in rural areas, H.R.2380, the Building Youth Workforce Skills Act, which targets workforce preparation for young people, and H.R.3458, the Strong Communities Act of 2025, focused on community investment. All three bills were referred to committee.
