Economic and fiscal

Trade Act of 2015
See also: The Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, 2015

Trade act procedural motion
Nay3.png On June 11, 2015, 34 House Republicans voted against a procedural motion to open up debate on a Senate amendment to the Trade Act of 2015, the primary bill associated with the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The White House and GOP leadership supported the motion, as well as the TPP, while most House Democrats opposed it. The rule passed 217 to 202, but Speaker John Boehner (R) openly expressed his disapproval of the House Republicans who voted against it, telling reporters shortly afterwards, "I made it clear to members today I am not happy about it."[9] Several of these Republicans lost leadership positions in the weeks following the vote, causing some to see a connection between the demotions and the vote against the procedural motion.[10] Stutzman was one of 34 Republicans to vote against the procedural motion.[11]
Trade adjustment assistance
Nay3.png On June 12, 2015, the House rejected the trade adjustment assistance (TAA) measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015—by a vote of 126-302. Trade adjustment assistance (TAA) is a federal program providing American workers displaced by foreign trade agreements with job training and services. The measure was packaged with trade promotion authority (TPA), also known as fast-track authority. TPA is a legislative procedure that allows Congress to define "U.S. negotiating objectives and spells out a detailed oversight and consultation process for during trade negotiations. Under TPA, Congress retains the authority to review and decide whether any proposed U.S. trade agreement will be implemented," according to the Office of the United States Trade Representative. Stutzman was one of 158 Republicans to vote against TAA.[12][13]
Trade promotion authority
Yea3.png On June 12, 2015, the House passed the trade promotion authority (TPA) measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015 —by a vote of 219-211. TPA gives the president fast-track authority to negotiate trade agreements sent to Congress without the opportunity for amendment or filibuster. Although the House approved TPA, it was a largely symbolic vote given the measure was part of a package trade bill including trade adjustment assistance (TAA), which was rejected earlier the same day. Stutzman was one of 191 Republicans to support the measure.[14][15]
Trade promotion authority second vote
Yea3.png After the trade adjustment assistance (TAA) and trade promotion authority (TPA) did not pass the House together on June 12, 2015, representatives voted to authorize TPA alone as an amendment to HR 2146—the Defending Public Safety Employees' Retirement Act—on June 18, 2015. The amendment passed by a vote of 218-208, with all voting members of the House maintaining their original positions on TPA except for Ted Yoho (R-Fla.). Stutzman was one of 190 Republicans to vote in favor of the amendment.[16][17]
Trade adjustment assistance second vote
Nay3.png The House passed HR 1295—the Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015—on June 25, 2015, by a vote of 286-138. The Senate packaged trade adjustment assistance (TAA) in this bill after the House rejected the TAA measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015. Along with trade promotion authority (TPA), which Congress passed as part of HR 2146—the Defending Public Safety Employees' Retirement Act—TAA became law on June 29, 2015. Stutzman was one of 132 Republicans to vote against HR 1295.[18][19]

It does not provide budget authority, which is provided in subsequent appropriations legislation." Stutzman voted with 227 other Republicans and 41 Democrats to approve the bill.[20] The Senate passed the bill on June 18, 2015, by a vote of 71-25. President Barack Obama vetoed the bill on October 22, 2015.[21]

Yea3.png On November 5, 2015, the House passed S 1356—the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016—by a vote of 370-58. The second version of the $607 billion national defense bill included $5 billion in cuts to match what was approved in the budget and language preventing the closure of the Guantanamo Bay military prison.[22][23] Stutzman voted with 234 other Republicans and 135 Democrats to approve the bill.[24] On November 10, 2015, the Senate passed the bill by a vote of 91-3, and President Barack Obama signed it into law on November 25, 2015.[25]

HR 3460 prohibited "the President, prior to January 21, 2017, from: limiting the application of specified sanctions on Iran or refraining from applying any such sanctions; or removing a foreign person (including entities) listed in Attachments 3 or 4 to Annex II of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPA) from the list of designated nationals and blocked persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury."

2016

See also: United States Senate election in Indiana, 2016

The race for Indiana's Senate seat was one of nine competitive battleground races in 2016 that helped Republicans maintain control of the Senate. Todd Young (R) defeated Evan Bayh (D), Lucy Brenton (L), and James Johnson (I) (Write-in) in the general election to win retiring incumbent Dan Coats' (R) Senate seat on November 8, 2016.[71][72][73]

Bayh, a former U.S. Senator, governor of Indiana, and Indiana Secretary of State received major media attention upon his announcement that he was running for the seat he left in 2011. Nathan Gonzales, editor and publisher of The Rothenberg & Gonzales Political Report, said Bayh’s run “might be the biggest surprise in Senate races this year.”[74]

Bayh said wanted to return to the Senate to address the same issues of partisanship and gridlock that led him to retire, “Things in Washington have only gotten worse, and it grieves me to see what’s happened in our country, the unmet challenges that so many of our families face. I just concluded that I couldn’t stand on the sidelines anymore and needed to do what I could to try and bring us together to meet our challenges.”[75]

Young, who represented Indiana's 9th Congressional District from 2011 to 2017, ran on his background as a former Marine, ‘“I would say more than anything else, this election is about who Hoosiers can trust. It’s about character,” Young said. “Either (voters) place their trust in a Marine who lives here in Indiana … or they place their trust in a career politician who’s cashed out and has an unseemly post-Senate career he doesn’t want to talk about.”[76]

In August 2016, Republicans accused Bayh of not living in Indiana, citing reports that he was listed as an inactive voter by the Indiana Election Division. CNN also reported that public records showed Bayh listed his two Washington, D.C. homes as his places of primary residence instead of his home in Indianapolis.[77]

During a campaign stop, Young said, “What I’m hearing from people across the board is they are frustrated by their elected representatives going to Washington, D.C., and forgetting about Indiana. They believe special interests and Washington lobbyists — like Evan Bayh — are a big part of the problem, and they’re right.”[78]

In response to a question about his homes, Bayh told the Indianapolis Star, “Susan and I spent the last couple of nights at our Indianapolis home, and we like it. If Congressman Young and his allies want to attack me, that’s their decision. I’m going to attack the challenges that face Hoosier families and our country. That’s why I’m running.”[75]

Campaign website

Stutzman's campaign website stated the following:

Eliminate Inflation. Building A Healthy Economy.

The biggest threat to the American dream is Washington's $37 trillion worth of debt and out of control spending! Inflation has re-emerged as one of the greatest threats to our families, businesses and economy. Because of Washington's out of control spending and the broken tax system, millions of American families find it difficult to pay for basic necessities. The real American Dream is about hard work and opportunity, but we must fix the broken tax system to give American workers the freedom to succeed. As the author of the Conservative Budget in the House of Representatives, I proved that if we eliminate wasteful spending and if we allow the American people the freedom to innovate, build and create their own opportunities, we can bring America back to solvency over time if we start now. When government is held accountable to live within its means, the full potential of the American economy is unleashed, and families thrive. We can preserve Social Security and Medicare for the next generation and still enact thoughtful reforms to our nation's entitlement structure to reduce our national debt and the threat it poses to our children and grandchildren. It's time for Washington to get out of the way and allow American workers to get back to work!

Finish the Wall. Defending Our Border and Strengthening National Security.

We cannot have a secure nation without secure borders. I have seen firsthand at the southern border the problems we face to our national security and the number of illegal crossings is staggering. From the Mexican cartels to sex trafficking to the very real threat of terrorists infiltrating our borders from around the world, the threat we face of harm to our citizens and our communities has never been greater. My top priority in Congress will be to stop the disaster at the border before it is too late. From day one, I have advocated to finish the wall on the southern border as soon as possible, and as your Congressman I will work to create a legal system that protects our citizens from the threats we already face and ensure that our national security is strengthened at every level. Our legal immigration system must operate with the principle of having a "high wall and a wide gate". We are a nation of immigrants, but we can only thrive when our federal government does its job to keep our borders and our communities secure.

Hands Off Our Kids. Improving Education and Parental Rights.

It's time to re-think our education system. Education was never meant to be a federal issue. Education is the responsibility of parents first and foremost and the governments of each state should work in partnership with parents and local communities to determine what is best for their students. Therefore, the federal Department of Education needs to be abolished. Every American student should have access to quality education, regardless of their economic circumstances or zip code. Having more school/educational choices and encouraging parental involvement are proven ways to make sure that students succeed, and this can be done on the state level in a variety of ways. College costs have skyrocketed by 439% or more in the past 25 years, but the suppression of free speech and the indoctrination of students by liberal professors is a pandemic that is changing and dividing our nation in drastic ways. We must protect the free speech of our college students and provide protection for open debate on college campuses by denying funding to any institute of higher learning which denies those basic rights and freedoms.

Demanding Government Transparency

The corruption in our federal bureaucracies is rampant and has been out of control for too long. That’s why I authored the Bureau Guidance Transparency Act demanding complete transparency from federal agencies. I fought to repeal the authority that the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection had to restrict arbitration and I will continue to fight all other federal corruption by exposing the truth to the American people. My record of standing up the Washington elite is long and well documented, and with all that I have been through as a business owner, employer, father and taxpayer, I am more than eager to take a message from Main Street to K street that we the people have had enough. There is much at stake for hard working Americans, and on day one I will take effective, hard-hitting action that will put all federal bureaucrats on notice that we the people have had enough.

Defending the Unborn

For years we marched in Right To Life marches in Washington, Fort Wayne and across the nation, demanding that our leaders reverse the disastrous decision made by the Supreme Court in 1973 legalizing abortion. I authored multiple bills on the state and federal level trying to protect the lives of the unborn in any way possible. Now that Roe vs. Wade has been overturned, our battle to protect life is not over. We must continue to ensure that every life, born and unborn, is valued and protected. There is still work to do on both the state and federal level and I will never stop working to create a culture that values every life in America.

The Right to Bear Arms

Actions speak louder than words, and my record of protecting the second amendment rights of every American is long and clear. The Second Amendment to the US Constitution has been under attack for decades and I have been honored to protect and defend it on the state and federal levels. With a lifetime A rating from the NRA, I have defended our right to bear arms by co-authoring the Lifetime Handgun Permit in Indiana and authoring The Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act as well as the Separation of Powers Restoration and Second Amendment Protection Act in the US Congress. As Chairman of the Republican Study Committee’s Second Amendment Initiative, I have actively promoted educational outreach and activism to promote our right to bear arms. “The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

Protect Our Families Against the Radical Liberal Agenda

Our nation's strength is grounded in the values Hoosiers live out every day, but our rights to personal conviction and faith are under assault like never before. Our children have been targeted by cultural humanists in our education system, in the media and by global elites. As a Christian husband, father, and legislator, I have brought our Hoosier values boldly to the center of the debates in Indianapolis and in Washington. I have authored laws that have protected marriage, the family and life at every stage, and I will continue to stand in defense of the Judeo-Christian values that made America great. I will never stop fighting the Marxist liberal agenda that threatens to destroy our history, our children, our future and our freedoms.

Healthcare That Works

Paychecks are falling, employers are cutting hours and thousands of Hoosier families are struggling to afford even the most basic insurance. Government healthcare is not what we were promised and the wait times to see a doctor or have a much needed procedure are the longest they have been in our history. That’s why I have a step-by-step, common sense solution to health care reform that actually reduces costs and provides patient-centered solutions. Expanding free market solutions like Health Savings Accounts, transportable coverage, tax credits for businesses which provide health care and providing protection for doctors from frivolous lawsuits are the first steps toward providing access to the quality care Americans need. Americans deserve a healthcare system that works!

Medical Health Freedom

I remain steadfast in my dedication to preserving and defending medical freedom for all Americans. It is my fervent hope that the principles enshrined in the Right to Try law will continue to serve as a beacon of hope and empowerment for generations to come.

Backing the Blue. Supporting Our Law Enforcement and Veterans.

As the father of a son who has served in law enforcement, I have seen firsthand what our first responders and law enforcement face on a daily basis in order to keep our communities safe. The attacks and threats to those who serve must be met with swift consequences and I will "Back the Blue" proudly with gratitude and honor for the sacrifices they make every day to keep us safe. I stand in support to their legal protections and will continue to ensure that those who serve our communities so selflessly will have the protections they need in order to do their job well. Sadly, the overreach of the federal level law enforcement agencies has been shocking to everyday Americans in recent years. This must be addressed. American citizens should not live in fear of these federal agencies for merely standing for their convictions in peaceful ways in the public arena. The levels of tenure in these federal agencies have created a deep state that must be exposed and addressed. This is a mammoth task, but one I will not be intimidated from investigating.

Protecting Informed Consent and American Sovereignty

We must prevent any type of censorship of the right to free speech and individual healthcare choices from ever happening again in America. I actively oppose any WHO actions undermining US sovereignty and advocate for a comprehensive legislative review of WHO treaties. That is why I support efforts in the Senate to protect American sovereignty and I will lead the effort in the U.S. House of Representatives to do the same.

Innovation and Technology

Ingenuity and innovation are hallmarks of the American Experience. It’s time that our nation and our elected leaders begin developing thoughtful plans for digital assets and all the credible opportunities presented by crypto and blockchain technology. As your next congressman, I will make sure the United States continues to lead in finance including a pro-crypto, innovation friendly environment. I know there are meaningful and tested crypto policies that can modernize business and I will work to move these policies forward without unnecessary regulations. However, to be clear, the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is not the route we should go as a nation, and I would 100% oppose a CBDC.[84]

—Marlin Stutzman's campaign website (2024)[85]

2016

The following issues were listed on Stutzman's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

  • Building a Healthy Economy: We can preserve Social Security and Medicare for the next generation and still enact thoughtful reforms to our nation’s entitlement structure to reduce our national debt. The real American Dream is about hard work and opportunity. We must fix our broken tax system to give American workers freedom to succeed. When government is held accountable and lives within its means, it unleashes the full potential of the American economy. It’s time for Washington to get out of the way and allow American workers to get back to work.
  • Providing for the Common Defense: The simple, but powerful axiom, “Peace through strength,” has kept America the leader of the free world. I will continue to support a robust military and make sure our soldiers have the tools they need to do their jobs and come home safe. During my visit to our troops serving in Afghanistan, I was reminded again that their dedication and professionalism are second to none.
  • Healthcare that Works: Premiums are climbing, paychecks are falling, employers are cutting hours and thousands of Hoosier families are losing their insurance. Americans have a right to be frustrated with Obamacare because it’s not what we were promised. More delays will only prolong the pain. Before any additional changes are made, we need to fix what’s broken. I’m working to implement a step-by-step, common sense solution to health care reform that actually reduces costs and provides patient-centered solutions.
  • Efficient, Effective Government: American taxpayers can’t afford to pay for inefficient government programs while they struggle to pay their own bills. We must keep dollars and decisions as close to home as possible. By enacting thoughtful reforms, like creating public/private partnerships with local organizations with first hand knowledge of their community, we can preserve important safety net programs and ensure that help gets directly to those who need it most.
  • Improving Education: Every student should have access to quality education, regardless of their economic circumstances or zip code. Having more school choices and encouraging parental involvement are proven ways to make sure students succeed. College costs have increased by 439% in the past 25 years, but access to information has never been more available.

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, Stutzman's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $314,021 and $1,747,996. That averages to $1,031,008.50, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Stutzman ranked as the 204th most wealthy representative in 2012.[86] Between 2009 and 2012, Stutzman's calculated net worth[87] percentage increase was not meaningful as the initial average net worth is less than or equal to zero. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[88]

Marlin Stutzman Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2009$−63,139
2012$1,031,008
Growth from 2009 to 2012:N/A
Average annual growth:N/A
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[89]

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). Stutzman received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Leadership PACs industry.

From 2009-2014, 24.23 percent of Stutzman's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[90]
