Congressman Troy E. Nehls, who has secured victories in the last three general elections for his seat, posted on August 20, 2025, about recent legislative activity and the advancement of key bills in the House.

In a post made at 15:00 UTC, Nehls stated: “The House has passed numerous critical pieces of legislation, many of which President Trump has signed into law. From protecting our communities and securing our borders to defending women’s sports and reining in reckless spending, we are advancing the America First agenda.”

At 15:01 UTC on the same day, he highlighted H.R. 1—The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), writing: “H.R. 1– The One Big Beautiful Bill Act —Prevents the largest tax hike in American history. —Invests $12.5B in ATC modernization. —Permanently secures the border. —No Tax on Tips and Overtime. —Codifies 28 executive orders. The OBBBA is now the law of the land!”

In another post at 15:01 UTC, Nehls discussed H.R. 695—The Medal of Honor Act: “H.R. 695–The Medal of Honor Act: I proudly introduced the Medal of Honor Act to give our nation’s highest decorated Veterans the financial support they deserve. The House passed my bill by a vote of 424-0. The Senate must pass this bill as soon as possible.”

Nehls’ legislative activity follows a series of electoral wins over opponents Sri Preston Kulkarni in 2020 (with 51.5% of votes), Jamie Jordan in 2022 (with 62.2%), and Marquette Greene-Scott in 2024 (with 62.1%). These results reflect continued support from his district across multiple election cycles.
