Civil rights and liberties29 actions
Gallego's voting record on civil rights and liberties shows consistent support for antidiscrimination measures, particularly those addressing antisemitism and protecting vulnerable student populations. He voted in favor of multiple bills condemning antisemitism and calling for institutional accountability for harassment of Jewish students, as well as legislation protecting students from sex-based harassment and discrimination. He supported federal recognition for the Lumbee Tribe to ensure equal access to federal services and voted to oppose restrictions on transgender students' athletic participation and related education protections. His record includes votes backing measures that restrict organizational financial freedoms through terrorism designations, though with procedural safeguards, and supporting the censure of an elected representative for controversial statements. Gallego consistently voted against bills that would overturn education protections, restrict speech on foreign policy matters, or advance Second Amendment gun rights, while also voting against some resolutions honoring civil rights advocates and protecting religious minorities.
Criminal justice34 actions
Gallego's voting record in criminal justice reflects selective engagement with enforcement mechanisms and victims' protections while resisting certain sentencing expansions and police accountability measures. He voted in support of measures targeting specific crimes including human trafficking, fentanyl trafficking, crimes against children, and impaired driving by non-citizens, as well as initiatives strengthening victim services such as restitution rights, remote court access for bombing victims, and enhanced support for the National Center on Missing and Exploited Children. He backed infrastructure improvements including DNA evidence processing, police recruitment funding, and mental health resources for law enforcement. However, Gallego voted against several broad enforcement expansions, including mandatory minimum sentences for fleeing police near borders, restrictions on Washington D.C.'s sentencing reform authority, and expanded fentanyl penalty classifications. He also voted against a measure that would have reversed police use-of-force restrictions and limited body camera and disciplinary record transparency, and he opposed legislation affecting bail bond regulation and reversing D.C. criminal code reforms that expanded jury trial rights.
Economy and labor93 actions
Gallego's voting record on economy and labor matters reflects consistent support for federal investment in infrastructure and workforce development alongside selective skepticism toward trade and regulatory policies. He voted affirmatively on measures authorizing water infrastructure projects, airport improvements, and transportation initiatives, as well as legislation establishing job training programs for veterans and young workers. Gallego supported expanding investment access through securities democratization and backed creation of dedicated Small Business Administration support for Native American entrepreneurs. However, he voted against numerous presidential appointments in economic and trade positions, including nominees to lead the Small Business Administration, trade representative roles, and the EEOC, as well as measures addressing broadband expansion and hydroelectric power generation. On trade matters, Gallego voted no on tariff removal bills and measures to reduce regulatory review for semiconductor manufacturing, while supporting only one tariff-related measure that would block emergency tariff authority. His record demonstrates backing for direct public sector investment and worker support mechanisms while declining to endorse several personnel decisions and trade liberalization proposals.
Education25 actions
Gallego's education voting record reflects consistent support for federal funding and protections benefiting specific student populations, particularly veterans and low-income learners, alongside opposition to parental oversight mechanisms and curriculum restrictions. He voted to extend Holocaust education programs, expand technology training for veterans, protect veteran educational benefits from institutional failures, and maintain school meal funding. Conversely, Gallego voted against measures that would grant parents greater curriculum transparency and review authority, restrict transgender students' sports participation, and limit what colleges may teach regarding social and political topics. He rejected multiple nominations and confirmations involving education leadership, citing concerns about candidates lacking traditional education policy experience. Notable contradictions appear in his positions on financial aid accessibility and institutional transparency regarding pregnant students, where he voted no on bills designed to improve student access to aid information and college support services.
Environment and energy147 actions
Gallego's voting record on environmental and energy matters reflects considerable support for fossil fuel development alongside selective backing for environmental conservation and clean energy initiatives. He voted affirmatively on legislation funding marine species rescue, modernizing wildlife conservation mechanisms, and supporting nuclear energy reauthorization, as well as on bills establishing critical minerals designation for renewable infrastructure and advancing ocean acidification research. Conversely, Gallego consistently voted to block measures that would strengthen environmental protections, including rejecting legislation that would prevent copper-nickel mining in national forests, eliminate EPA emissions standards for vehicles, and weaken Clean Water Act protections for federal waters. His record includes multiple votes supporting fossil fuel infrastructure and extraction, such as backing pipeline and natural gas storage research and expedited oil and gas project development, while simultaneously voting against measures to restrict natural gas exports and block environmental conservation rules. Gallego also voted in favor of several bills that would weaken energy efficiency standards for appliances including refrigerators, dishwashers, and washing machines, demonstrating a pattern of opposing regulatory constraints on energy consumption. His confirmation votes show systematic opposition to appointees overseeing environmental protection and energy policy while supporting scientific and nuclear security leadership positions.
Fiscal policy233 actions
Gallego's fiscal policy voting record reflects a consistent pattern of supporting federal spending measures while declining to advance broad deficit reduction initiatives. He voted affirmatively on continuing appropriations bills that maintained existing federal spending levels, military construction and veterans affairs funding, and disaster relief provisions that expanded budget obligations. Gallego additionally supported the preservation of specific spending programs, including the United States Institute of Peace and international assistance initiatives, as well as measures that extended tax credits for health insurance coverage. Conversely, he voted against major appropriations bills establishing spending levels for defense, labor, health, education, and energy programs, and opposed measures explicitly designed to reduce federal expenditures in agriculture and related sectors. His record also shows consistent rejection of bills that would have reduced government revenues through mortgage fee reductions, disaster-related tax exclusions, and regulatory relief measures affecting small business compliance costs. On procedural matters related to budget negotiations and fiscal authority, Gallego declined to support measures establishing rules for debating appropriations and voting on spending authority for various government functions.
Government accountability and transparency114 actions
Gallego's voting record on government accountability and transparency reflects consistent opposition to citizenship verification measures and electoral restrictions while supporting selective transparency initiatives. He rejected multiple bills requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration and census participation, along with measures restricting voting eligibility to citizens in D.C. elections. Gallego also voted against several proposals designed to enhance government oversight, including requirements for agency heads to personally sign regulations, congressional approval of executive rules, and establishment of dedicated investigative bodies examining federal information collection. Conversely, he supported bills advancing disclosure requirements in limited contexts, voting yes on legislation mandating upfront fee disclosure by ticket sellers and restricting government access to tech company records without notification. He additionally backed congressional observer designation in elections and removal procedures for House Speaker and cabinet officials. Gallego voted no on funding for congressional oversight institutions and rejected multiple bills targeting regulatory transparency and accountability mechanisms across federal agencies and prison systems.
Healthcare71 actions
Gallego's healthcare voting record reflects consistent support for federal programs addressing specific vulnerable populations and disease prevention. He voted affirmatively on legislation extending funding for maternal health services, substance use disorder treatment, pediatric disease research, and emergency medical services for children. His votes supported expanded healthcare access for veterans through home and community-based care alternatives, enhanced dental provider availability in underserved areas, and strengthened child welfare and family support services. Gallego voted against several measures that would have modified healthcare financing mechanisms, including health savings account expansion, employer-based insurance reimbursement arrangements, and Medicaid payment restrictions on states covering undocumented immigrants. He also opposed elimination of healthcare worker vaccine requirements and congressional confirmation of several executive branch healthcare appointees. On procedural matters, Gallego voted to reject constraints on Department of Health and Human Services regulatory interpretation and to increase procedural difficulty for future Medicaid coverage reductions.
Immigration32 actions
Gallego's voting record on immigration reflects a complex pattern combining opposition to restrictive enforcement measures with support for certain crime-related deportation provisions. He consistently voted against bills that would reduce asylum access, increase detention protocols, or restrict undocumented immigrants' access to shelter and services, including measures that would erect additional physical barriers at the southwest border. Simultaneously, he voted to support automatic detention and deportation of immigrants arrested for assaulting law enforcement or first responders, to facilitate exclusion based on domestic violence or sex offense convictions, and to allow states greater authority in immigration enforcement litigation. Gallego also supported preserving work permit extensions for immigrants already authorized to work and voted for a family reunification program for Korean Americans separated by division of the Korean peninsula.
National security and foreign policy210 actions
Gallego's voting record on national security and foreign policy reflects a consistent emphasis on containing adversarial powers, particularly Iran and China, while strengthening alliances and military capabilities. He supported legislation imposing sanctions on Iranian energy sectors, weapons programs, and officials; restricting technology exports to Iran; and establishing diplomatic positions to counter Iranian influence. On China, Gallego backed measures addressing surveillance threats, supporting human rights advocacy for Uyghurs, and challenging territorial claims in Tibet, though he voted against additional sanctions on Communist Party leadership and a comprehensive Department of Homeland Security initiative targeting Chinese security threats. His voting pattern demonstrates strong backing for Israel's military capabilities and regional partnerships, including support for emergency defense funding and diplomatic efforts to strengthen Israeli relationships with Arab nations. Gallego consistently supported defense appropriations, military personnel resources, and equipment modernization alongside measures to expand law enforcement tools for counterterrorism and drug trafficking enforcement. He voted to require congressional approval for major Iran-related military actions and sanctions policy shifts, indicating a preference for legislative oversight in foreign policy decisions. However, Gallego's record shows notable departures from broader security initiatives, voting against proposals to restrict foreign technology applications, extend chemical facility protections, and reduce military involvement in Syria and Somalia. His votes on pandemic treaty oversight and certain border security measures further demonstrate selective alignment with national security frameworks, suggesting prioritization of specific geopolitical relationships over comprehensive approaches to security infrastructure.
