  • 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
    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.
