Washington - This week, Representatives Jack Bergman (R-MI-01), Rudy Yakym (R-IN-02), Jimmy Panetta (D-CA-19), and Scott Peters (D-CA-50) introduced bipartisan legislation to strengthen transparency and accuracy in improper payment reporting that will reduce waste and fraud.
The Improper Payments Transparency Act (H.R. 1771) would direct the President’s budget request to Congress to include the amounts and rates of improper payments at each executive agency, year-over-year trends, a detailed explanation of trends, and a summary of any corrective actions taken to address improper payments. Including this key data in the budget would correct the gaps in improper payment reporting, which in turn would streamline funding to essential government programs and reduce wasteful use of taxpayer dollars.

Representative Jack Bergman and 16 of his colleagues in the House of Representatives introduced the bipartisan Susan Muffley Act, which will restore the retirement benefits of Delphi Salaried Retirees – including 5,859 Michiganders – and provide backpay for the pension payments that should have been received for the past 15 years.
In 1999, the Delphi Corporation was created as a parts and components supplier to automakers as a spin-off from General Motors. In 2009, the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) terminated the pensions of more than 20,000 Delphi Salaried Retirees, more...

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee and Chairman of the Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights, introduced a constitutional amendment to maintain a total of nine Supreme Court justices on the bench at a time.
Once approved by Congress, the amendment would go to the states for ratification.
Upon introduction, Sen. Cruz said, “For years, Democrats have openly said they intend to pack the Supreme Court. They seek to use the Court to advance policy goals they can’t accomplish electorally. Such a move would be a direct assault on the design of our Constitution, which is designed to ensure the Supreme Court remains a non-partisan guardian of the rule of law. This amendment is a badly-needed check on their efforts to undermine the integrity of the Court.”
