Ruben Gallego
Since the current Congress began on January 3, 2025, Gallego has a recorded vote on 38 laws that passed.
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, 38 came to a recorded vote in the Senate while Gallego is a member. The rest passed the Senate by voice vote or without objection, which records no individual votes.
Gallego votes Yes on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention, the HALT Fentanyl Act, the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar), the defense policy law for fiscal year 2026, the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act and the Russia and Iran sanctions law.
On funding the government, Gallego votes Yes on the January 2026 funding law for science, energy, Interior and the EPA, and the September 2026 funding extension, and No on the March 2025 full-year funding law, the November 2025 law that ended the 43-day shutdown and the February 2026 funding law for a further group of agencies.
Gallego votes No on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the 2025 tax and spending law; the Rescissions Act of 2025, which cancelled about $9 billion in approved spending; and the Secure America Act, a 2026 budget law.
Congress cancelled 24 federal rules by recorded vote in the Senate in that time. Gallego votes to cancel 0 and against cancelling 21, and did not vote on 3.
Gallego votes differently from most Senate Democrats on 2 of 35 Yes and No votes: Yes on the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar) and Yes on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention.
Gallego did not vote on the law that cancels a land agency plan for federal lands in North Dakota that limited where coal, oil and gas could be leased; the law that cancels a land agency plan that limited oil and gas leasing in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska; and the law that cancels an IRS rule that would have required decentralized finance platforms to report their customers' digital asset sales the way stockbrokers do.

- One Big Beautiful Bill ActJune 24, 2025
What They Are Saying: Congressional Republicans Plan to Make it Harder to Put Food on the Table
“If the ‘One Big Beautiful Bill Act’ moves forward in the Senate, the impact on northern Arizona would be devastating. With proposed SNAP cuts putting roughly 25,000 residents in Congressional District 2 at risk, families across Flagstaff and Coconino County would be forced to make impossible choices between food, housing, and healthcare,” said Ethan Amos, President & CEO, Flagstaff Family”
- All-American Flag ActJune 16, 2025
On Flag Day, Gallego Backs Bill to Ensure American Flags Are Made in America
“In 2024, Congress passed and the President signed into law the All-American Flag Act to prevent agencies from purchasing U.S. flags unless the flags have been manufactured in the United States from materials that have been U.S. grown, produced, or manufactured. However, loopholes in the law and lax enforcement have allowed Chinese companies to sell American flags on e-commerce platforms”
- Native American Child Protection ActFebruary 20, 2025
Gallego Reintroduces Bipartisan Bill to Strengthen Public Safety in Indian Country
“During his time in the House of Representatives, he chaired the first Congressional hearing on the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), and last year his bipartisan Native American Child Protection Act was signed into law.”
