Dear Colleague
November 13, 2018 Dear Colleague: We write today to share our support for Steny Hoyer to serve as Majority Leader in the 116th Congress. In the majority, we will have considerable opportunity to effect change and great responsibility to get things done on behalf of our constituents. We will need a steady, experienced leader over the next two years, who also works to empower our Members and prepare them for future leadership opportunities. We will need someone who will hold President Trump, his Administration, and Congressional Republicans accountable – while still being able to work effectively in a divided government to get legislation passed. It is for these reasons that we believe that Steny is the person we need as Majority Leader. Steny was out on the trail tirelessly campaigning this cycle, doing the hard work necessary to take back the House. He traveled to districts in every part of the country, campaigning with progressive and moderate Democratic candidates alike. He’s been there for us: traveling for us, raising money for us, and he’s often one of the first people to reach out and offer his support. He has been a mentor to many of us. We believe it is critical for our leaders to promote Members across our Caucus and give them real opportunities to lead. Steny has done this, and will continue to do so. Half of his Whip team is composed of Members who have served for three terms or less. He was a strong supporter of efforts in 2016 to expand the leadership team, and he is committed to making changes that empower Members further, including by strengthening the Committee process.

August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

The Truth Behind H.R. 3835 – a Bill to Extend the Current Pay Freeze for Federal Employees and Members of Congress
The Truth Behind H.R. 3835 – A bill to Extend the Current Pay Freeze for Federal Employees and Members of Congress Dear Colleague: The Republican Majority has scheduled H.R. 3835 for consideration on the House floor on Wednesday. This bill would extend by one additional year the pay freeze that currently applies to all executive branch employees. This bill would also freeze the pay of Members of Congress and all legislative branch employees through December 2013. H.R. 3835 was introduced this past Friday, January 27, during a pro forma session and has not been marked-up in Committee. It is now scheduled to be considered under the suspension of the rules, which prevents Members of Congress from offering amendments. By inappropriately grouping Members of Congress who earn $174,000 per year with the men and women of our federal civil service, H.R. 3835 represents yet another effort to politicize federal employees’ pay and benefits and continues Republicans’ efforts to cut their wages and reduce their retirement benefits. The merits of pay increases for federal employees should be debated separately from our consideration of pay for Members of Congress. While we are not opposed to a freeze on Members' pay for fiscal year 2013, we will not support a pay freeze for federal employees for a third consecutive year. Our federal workers have already made significant sacrifices to help reduce our government’s budget deficit. They are now enduring a two-year pay freeze that will save $5 billion by the end of 2012, and more than $60 billion over the next decade.

We agree. In order for us to conduct a fair and nonpartisan process, we must hold ourselves to the highest standards of ethical conduct as we continue proceedings to consider the election contests before our Committee. We write to bring to your attention to a serious conflict of interest regarding Marc Elias, an attorney with the law firm Perkins Coie. In the election contests currently before us, Mr. Elias simultaneously represents Members of the Committee, the triers of fact and law, and parties to these contests, an arrangement clearly prohibited by attorney ethics rules and obligations. See Notice of Contest Regarding Election for Representative in the One Hundred Seventeenth Congress from Iowa’s Second Congressional District; Contestee’s Motion to dismiss Contestant’s Notice of Contest Regarding the Election for Representative in the 117th Congress from Illinois’ fourteenth Congressional District. Marc Elias and his firm, Perkins Coie, represent you, Representative Pete Aguilar, and Representative Mary Gay Scanlon, one-half of the Democratic Members of the House Committee on House Administration, the Committee charged with hearing election contests.

Letter to Leadership Requesting Protection Provisions for Frontline
April 27, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker US House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20510 The Honorable Steny Hoyer Majority Leader US House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Hoyer, Thank you for your incredible leadership to prioritize American health care workers during the coronavirus crisis. As Congress looks toward the next stimulus package, we ask that you include provisions that protect the jobs of these frontline workers and ensure they are duly compensated and supported for the risk they are undertaking. These professionals are working around the clock to save lives and stop the spread of the virus. As these heroes risk their lives to combat the epidemic, they should know that their government has their back. Health care workers are making a significant sacrifice as they serve the public in this hazardous environment. These workers are at a higher risk of experiencing severe symptoms and complications when they contract COVID-19.1 The Lancet recently estimated that 20% of Italian health professionals have been infected with COVID-19.2 In Ohio and Minnesota, health care workers make up an estimated 20% of all cases.3 To make matters worse, workers across the 1 Howard, Jacqueline. “Health Care Workers Getting Sicker from Coronavirus than Other Patients, Expert Says.” CNN, Cable News Network, 19 Mar. 2020, www.cnn.com/2020/03/16/health/doctors-coronavirus-health-care-hit- harder/index.html. 2 Remuzzi, Andrea, and Giuseppe Remuzzi. “COVID-19 and Italy: What next?” The Lancet, 2020, doi:10.1016/s0140-6736(20)30627-9.

Cummings Lower Drug Costs Now Act (i.e., H.R. 3), to urge Congress to keep any international reference pricing proposals (including "International Pricing Index" or "Most Favored Nation") out of drug pricing reform legislation. International reference pricing will have an outsized negative impact on people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), as well as decimate the clinical development of therapies for ADRD and other complex co-occurring medical conditions experienced by many people living with ADRD. Additionally, such reference pricing would undermine critical elements of the Affordable Care Act, the Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and the 2020 DNC Platform while exacerbating health disparities in direct contradiction of the Biden Administration's core promise to advance health equity.

Hoyer Advocates for Increased Staff Pay to Attract & Retain Experienced
Hoyer Advocates for Increased Staff Pay to Attract & Retain Experienced, Diverse Staff Earlier this month, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer testified before the House Select Committee on Modernization and highlighted the need for the House to offer competitive salaries and benefits in order to attract and retain talented, experienced, and diverse Congressional staff – particularly after an intense workload over the past year responding to the pandemic and its ensuing economic crisis, and after the trauma of the January 6th insurrection. Following his testimony, Leader Hoyer and Democratic Caucus Chair Hakeem Jeffries wrote a letter to appropriators urging an increase in office budgets to boost staff pay. Here’s a look at coverage of these efforts: Roll Call: Hoyer and Jeffries to pitch 20 percent boost for office funds to retain staff “Leaders in the House are raising the alarm that the sluggish growth of staffer pay makes recruiting and retaining talented staff difficult and are urging appropriators to include a 20 percent increase for office budgets for fiscal 2022.” “….Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer and Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries wrote to Appropriations Chair Rosa DeLauro and Legislative Branch Appropriations Subcommittee Chairman Tim Ryan advocating for the boost to the Members’ Representational Allowance in the upcoming Legislative Branch spending bill.” “‘Many have been serving as Congressional staff for years out of a deep sense of duty, choosing not to pursue or accept competitive offers from the private sector in order to remain in public service,’ wrote Hoyer and Jeffries. ‘Their commendable sacrifices and contributions ought to be met with the raises and benefit increases they have surely earned through their hard work and dedication.’” “They also say recruits eager to commit their careers to public service are deterred by less competitive salaries and benefits even when compared with executive branch jobs.
