Friday, I joined with a majority in the House to pass a budget resolution that will eventually lead to Obamacare being repealed. Where does that process go from here?

McHenry Introduces RPM Act
- News Type: Press Release
Last week, Chief Deputy Whip Patrick McHenry (R, NC-10) introduced H.R. 350, the Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports Act of 2016 or "RPM Act" which permanently blocks attempts by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate modified motor vehicles used for racing. The bill was introduced with a bipartisan group of 44 original cosponsors. For decades, automotive enthusiasts have modified street vehicles into race cars used exclusively at closed race tracks.

McHenry Stands With Israel Against UN Action
- News Type: Press Release
Chief Deputy Whip Patrick McHenry (R, NC-10) released the following statement after the House of Representatives passed House Resolution 11, objecting to the United Nations Security Council's Resolution 2334: “The United Nations' treatment of Israel is dangerous and objectionable. As our sacred ally and the only true democracy in the entire Middle East, Israel should be recognized for their commitment to democratic principles and commended for all they do to maintain peace. Instead they are targeted by another one-sided, anti-Israel resolution at the Security Council. Unlike the outgoing Administration, I’m proud to join with a bipartisan majority in the House to stand with Israel and fight back against these misguided attacks.”
