Campaign themes

2018

Campaign website

Rohrabacher's campaign website stated the following:

“

Enactment of Omnibus Appropriations bill: June, 2017:

o Provides discretionary funding for remainder of FY ’17 (through September 30, 2017).

o Rep. Rohrabacher’s achievements in bill: Continued protection from federal prosecution for patients, physicians, veterans, doctors, etc., acting in compliance with their state’s medical marijuana laws. $2 billion increase in funding for National Institutes of Health. House passage and enactment of “Weather Research & Forecasting Innovation Act” (H.R. 353).

o Included in bill was the “Tsunami Warning, Education, and Research Act of 2017,” which was co-sponsored and pushed through the House Science Committee by Reps. Rohrabacher and Bonamici (D-OR). House passage and enactment of “National Aeronautics and Space Administration Transition Authorization Act of 2017” (S. 422).

o First NASA authorization enacted since 2010.

o Included a reiteration of a commitment to the fullest commercial use of space—something Rep. Rohrabacher has long championed.

House passage and enactment of legislation (H.J.Res. 43) that reverses an Obama Administration rule, so that moving forward, states will have a greater ability to restrict tax dollars from going to abortion providers.

House passage and enactment of legislation (H.J.Res. 58) that would roll back an Obama Administration rule that sought to impose additional federal mandates and control on local schools.

House passage and enactment of legislation (H.J.Res. 44) that eliminates an Obama Administration rule that would have overhauled existing resource management regulations of federal lands while reducing input from local communities.

House passage of FY ’18 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 1810), which sets spending parameters and policy for the Department of Defense.

o Two Rohrabacher amendments adopted: (1) a sense of Congress declaring Dr. Shakil Afridi an international hero and calling on Pakistan to release him immediately from prison, and (2) a prohibition on the transfer of certain funds to Pakistan until and unless the Secretary of Defense certifies that Pakistan is not using funds or equipment to persecute religious and ethnic minorities.

House passage of H.R. 23, the GROW Act, which would change law in several instances in an effort to increase (1) water storage capacity throughout California and the West, and (2) water flows throughout California and the West. The legislation would accomplish these goals by streamlining bureaucratic and environmental processes and relying on better science to determine appropriate water flows.

o Rep. Rohrabacher was an original co-sponsor of this legislation and spoke in favor of its enactment.

House passage of H.R. 1873, the Electricity Reliability and Forest Protection Act—LaMalfa (R-CA): the legislation amends current law to streamline and improve the approval process for engaging in vegetation management on electric rights-of-way located on federal lands.

Enactment into law of S. 1094, the Department of Veterans Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act of 2017—Rubio (R-FL): the legislation would institute a number of reforms to empower the Secretary of the VA with enhanced authority to remove, demote, or suspend any VA employee for poor performance or misconduct. The legislation also provides additional protections for whistleblowers and implements additional measures that may be used to punish poor performance, misconduct, or employees who are convicted of a felony that influences his/her job at the VA.

House passage of the American Health Care Act. The Senate is now working to pass its version of healthcare reform ​ Problems with the Veterans Administration

U. S. Representative Dana Rohrabacher has an unyielding record of supporting America’s courageous men and women serving in the United States’ Armed Forces. The Congressman moved toward fresolving the problem of mistreatment of many veterans who suffered mistreatment from the Veterans Administration since the disclosure of this issue. Congressman Rohrabacher not only called for the resignation and replacement of Secretary Shinseki by co-sponsoring H.Con.Res.98, but he also voted in support of H.R. 3230, signed into law on August 7, 2014. He also provided supplemental and new authorities to the Veterans Administration to resolve their ongoing problems.


FY ’14 and FY ’15 Appropriations Bills

In general, Representative Rohrabacher supported appropriations bills before the House, in which spending remained at or below the previous year’s level of spending. However, bills that provide funding for veterans programs remain exceptions to this general rule. In this view, lawmakers need to remain committed to refraining from growing the size and scope of the federal government to reduce the deficit and pay down the national debt. However, appropriations bills (discretionary spending) are only one part of a very large federal budget. In order to limit government growth, lawmakers must also reign in mandatory spending, which accounts for well over half of the total federal budget.


Tax Extenders

The House passed a handful of individual bills to extend—on a permanent basis—various tax provisions, which demonstrate proof that they have helped American families and businesses in the past. For example, the House has passed and Congressman Rohrabacher has supported H.R. 3393, which consolidates and extends four higher education tax benefits. He supported H.R. 4457, which allows businesses to expense certain purchases, and H.R. 4438, which simplifies and extends the research tax credit. Instead of adopting these bills, the Senate chose to push for a larger comprehensive package of “tax extender” provisions in one piece of legislation.


Transportation Funding

The threat of a depletion of the Federal Highway Trust Fund is also bona fide. Current projections indicate the fund will deplete (and only make expenditures at the rate at which revenue came in) on August 1, unless Congress acts to supplement the trust fund. The House took the lead by passing H.R. 5021 on July 15, 2014. This would transfer nearly $8 billion from the general fund to the Highway Trust Fund, while fully offsetting the expenditures, providing sufficient funding to the trust fund through the end of May 2015. The Senate first amended the House bill to provide enough funding only through December 19, but eventually acceded to the House’s version. Thus, the trust fund now has sufficient funds to continue its normal transportation infrastructure activities through the end of May of next year.


National Security Administration (NSA)

Congressman Rohrabacher continues to take very seriously issues regarding the revelation of the NSA’s surveillance activities. For example, he has co-sponsored two bills—H.R. 1852 and H.R. 3361—to prevent the ongoing abuses. He has also voted in favor of Rep. Massie’s amendment to the 2015 Department of Defense (DOD) Appropriations bill. This amendment would prohibit funding for conducting warrantless searches of government databases for information that pertains to U.S. citizens. Rep. Massie’s amendment passed overwhelmingly, 293-213, on June 19, 2014. However, there is much more work to do.

The amendment, which is not in effect, only pertains to DOD appropriations. A more permanent change to the law is necessary to end this government overreach for good.


Immigration (Crisis at the Southern Border)

Congressman Rohrabacher, a staunch advocate for legal immigration, continues to support a viable and equitable immigration system. At the same time, he continues to oppose adamantly any form of amnesty toward any individuals here illegally. The crisis at the Southern Border of the United States remains an unfortunate situation, which our country could have prevented in the first place. Benefitting from federal, state, and local programs and the allure of good-paying jobs in the United States remains one of the major incentives for illegal immigration. This is why Congressman Rohrabacher introduced and pushed for the enactment of his own bill, H.R. 2745, “No Social Security for Illegal Immigrants.”

Congressman Rohrabacher also remains a longtime supporter of mandatory E-Verify. In response to the immediate threat we face at our Southern Border with respect to unaccompanied minors, Representative Rohrabacher co-sponsored two pieces of legislation. H.R. 5160 prevents the President from expanding his deferred action plan for children—created by Executive Memorandum on August 15, 2012—and H.R. 5079. This bill would treat undocumented immigrant children from non-contiguous countries the same as those from contiguous countries—Mexico and Canada—providing for a more efficient process for deporting such undocumented and unaccompanied children.

Finally, Congressman Rohrabacher voted in favor of two House bills considered during the last week of July, 2014 that look to solve the crisis. The first, H.R. 5230, would provide supplemental appropriations to finance additional border patrol, deportation, and temporary assistance for the unaccompanied children, while also including provisions similar to H.R. 5079 described above. The second, H.R. 5272, is similar to H.R. 5160 described above. Bills—H.R. 5230 and H.R. 5272—passed the House on August 1, 2014, and continue to await further action in the Senate. [15]

Personal Gain Index

Congressional Personal Gain Index graphic.png
See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives
Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Rohrabacher's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $-448,997 and $749,998. That averages to $150,500, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Rohrabacher ranked as the 364th most wealthy representative in 2012.[131] Between 2004 and 2012, Rohrabacher's calculated net worth[132] increased by an average of 24 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[133]

Dana Rohrabacher Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2004$51,318
2012$150,500
Growth from 2004 to 2012:193%
Average annual growth:24%[134]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[135]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). In the 113th Congress, Rohrabacher is the Vice-Chair of the United States House of Representatives Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. Rohrabacher received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Real Estate industry.

From 1989-2014, 23.94 percent of Rohrabacher's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[136]
