The record in plain language

Of the 118 laws passed since January 3, 2025, 38 came to a recorded vote in the Senate while Moreno is a member. The rest passed the Senate by voice vote or without objection, which records no individual votes.

Moreno 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 Rescissions Act of 2025, which cancelled about $9 billion in approved spending; 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, Moreno 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 Senate in that time. Moreno votes to cancel 24 and against cancelling 0. The rules Moreno votes to cancel come from: Interior: Bureau of Land Management (7), 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), Treasury: Internal Revenue Service (1) and Interior: Ocean Energy Management (1).

Moreno votes the same way as most Senate Republicans on all 38 of these Yes and No votes.
