Representative dfwlibertylover vote explanation thread (1,2,3)

[Terry the Fat Shark]

When I take office on Friday, I intend to use this thread to do the following:
1. Post what bills are being vote on, in the House
2. Post how I voted on said bills
3. Give an explanation, usually in simplified terms, as to how I voted

If I am elected VP I will do the same if I ever have to break ties.

My first votes for this term

Speaker: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=244860.msg6189649#msg6189649
Voted for Yankee, he has been a wonderful Speaker and I am not sure there is anyone else who could keep the gears of the House moving in this term, though hopefully someone is able to step up next term!

Vote on the motion to table HR 1219: An End to Privateering Amendment: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=290388.msg6189652#msg6189652

I voted NAY on the motion to table as I believe more debate is needed with more viewpoints in this term.

Vote on HR 1222: Federal Budget FY2018 and House Rules Amendment: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=291327.msg6189654#msg6189654

I voted AYE on this Budget and House Rules Amendment. Although I do believe the budget is a mess and we need to slash it substantially via reforms, the time is now to pass a budget framework for the reasons Speaker Yankee outlined in this thread: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=291317.0
