Vote Massie — Thomas Massie for Congress
campaign · campaign_site · model gpt-5.4-mini

Massie’s official vote record shows recent floor activity on May 12-15, 2026, including a Nay on the motion to recommit for H.R. 8365 (May 14) and a Yea on several other measures, but no direct statement that the no vote was because a bill lacked constitutional authority.

Recent official votes show continued participation and at least one Nay in the lookback window, but they do not by themselves prove the promise was fully delivered or violated.

Massie said warrantless searches are unconstitutional and introduced H.R. 8470 to require warrants based on probable cause for government-initiated searches.

This is concrete recent legislative action consistent with the constitutional-limit promise, though it is legislation rather than a recorded no vote on an unauthorized bill.

Massie's office announced that he introduced H.R. 8470, the Surveillance Accountability Act, to require government-initiated searches to use warrants based on probable cause under the Fourth Amendment. Massie said warrantless searches are unconstitutional.

Concrete same-term legislative action aligned with enforcing constitutional limits, though it is a bill introduction rather than proof of every vote on every constitutionally unauthorized bill.

Massie's official vote record lists recent 2026 votes with both Yea and Nay positions, including a Nay on H.R. 915 on June 24, Nay on H.R. 6644 on June 23, Nay on H.R. 9238 on June 11, and Yea votes on several other measures.

The record confirms active voting and some no votes, but it does not classify which bills Massie believed lacked constitutional authorization, so it cannot prove the absolute promise was fully met.

The Clerk's roll call for H.R. 9238, a bill to extend Title VII authorities under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, shows the motion failed 198-218 and lists Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky as voting Nay.

This is a direct no vote on federal surveillance authority, consistent with a constitutional-limits approach, but the roll call itself does not state Massie's constitutional reasoning.

Congress.gov identifies Massie as the sponsor of H.Con.Res.38. The text states that Congress has the sole power to declare war, that Congress had not authorized hostilities against Iran, and directs termination unless explicitly authorized.

Massie introduced a concrete constitutional war-powers measure targeting unauthorized hostilities, which supports serious effort toward the promise but not full proof across all votes.

Congress.gov shows H.Con.Res.38 was sponsored by Rep. Thomas Massie, introduced June 17, 2025, referred to House Foreign Affairs, and remained at the introduced stage.

The legislative status shows a concrete but unsuccessful or uncompleted effort. Blocked or unadvanced action supports an effort badge but not delivered fulfillment.

Congress.gov lists Massie as sponsor of H.R. 8421, the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act, introduced May 16, 2024, referred to House Financial Services, and still at the introduced stage in the 118th Congress record.

This shows another concrete limited-government legislative effort by Massie, but it does not directly prove the absolute no-vote standard and did not become law.

The Clerk's roll call for H.R. 55, the Emmett Till Antilynching Act, shows the measure passed 422-3 and lists Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky as voting Nay.

This is an official example of Massie voting no on a bill that expanded federal criminal law, but the roll call does not establish whether his reason was constitutional authority; it supports a pattern of no votes but not full delivery.
