Zachary Nunn
Since the current Congress began on January 3, 2025, Nunn has a recorded vote on 60 laws that passed, and 1 vote on a resolution that passed a law.
The tally counts votes on passage. 1 vote on a resolution that passed a law is listed apart.
This record covers laws that passed. Votes on bills that did not become law are not included yet.
The record in plain language
Of the 118 laws passed since January 3, 2025, 60 came to a recorded vote on passage in the House while Nunn is a member. On 1 more, the recorded House vote is on a resolution. Nunn votes Yes on H.Res. 590, the resolution that passed the Rescissions Act of 2025 in the House. The rest passed the House by voice vote or without objection, which records no individual votes.
Nunn votes Yes on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention; the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the 2025 tax and spending law; the HALT Fentanyl Act; the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar); the Epstein Files Transparency Act; the defense policy law for fiscal year 2026; the Secure America Act, a 2026 budget law; the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act; and the Russia and Iran sanctions law.
On funding the government, Nunn votes Yes on the March 2025 full-year funding law; the November 2025 law that ended the 43-day shutdown; the January 2026 funding law for science, energy, Interior and the EPA; the February 2026 funding law for a further group of agencies; and the September 2026 funding extension.
Congress cancelled 24 federal rules by recorded vote in the House in that time. Nunn votes to cancel 22 and against cancelling 0, and did not vote on 2. The rules Nunn votes to cancel come from: Interior: Bureau of Land Management (6), Environmental Protection Agency (6), Energy (4), Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (2), District of Columbia government (1), Treasury: Comptroller of the Currency (1), Interior: National Park Service (1) and Treasury: Internal Revenue Service (1).
Nunn votes the same way as most House Republicans on all 55 of these Yes and No votes.
Nunn did not vote on the Emergency Conservation Program Improvement Act of 2025, the law that cancels a land agency plan for eastern Montana that ended new federal coal leasing in the Miles City area, the Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge Act and the Filing Relief for Natural Disasters Act.
