Congressman Randy Feenstra registered a score of just 75 percent from the House Liberty Caucus for his voting record in 2022. The second-term representative who capitalized on COVID voting procedures to beat Congressman Steve King in a five-way Republican primary in 2020 produces a lowly score despite representing a solidly conservative district.

Feenstra was docked for his votes on:

HR 3076: The Postal Service Reform Act, which appropriated an additional $58 billion to the United States Postal Service. (Feenstra supported)

HR 7108: The Suspending Normal Trade Relations with Russia and Belarus Act, which gives the President unbridled authority to sanction virtually anyone, anywhere in the world. It would also impose tariff increases on goods from Russia/Belarus. (Feenstra voted in support)

HR 7691: The Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, which appropriated over $40 billion in foreign aid to Ukraine. (Feenstra voted in support)

HR 7900: The first version of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2023, which would have appropriated $839 billion for the 2023 military budget, without auditing the Pentagon and without repealing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate on military servicemembers. (Feenstra voted in support)

HR 7776: The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023, which approves an $858 billion military budget without an audit. This wasteful Pentagon budget enacts an 8% spending increase, appropriating $45 billion more than what President Biden requested. (Feenstra voted in support)

Members of the U.S. House who scored 100 percent include:

Rep. Andy Biggs
Rep. Dan Bishop
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene
Rep. Thomas Massie
Rep. Chip Roy

Thirty-one other Republicans scored 90 percent or higher. The average Republican score was 74.
