DOGE Subcommittee Chairman Burchett and Ranking Member Stansbury Introduce the Duplication Scoring Act
Position: The release advocates for legislation requiring the Government Accountability Office to review bills for duplication of existing federal programs and share findings publicly, framed as a measure to reduce government waste and spending.
Washington, D.C. (03/26/2026) -- Today, Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) Chairman Tim Burchett (TN-02) and Ranking Member Melanie Stansbury (NM-01) introduced the Duplication Scoring Act. This bill will require the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to review bills reported by committees for potential duplication of existing federal programs. The GAO will also be required to share its findings with the Congressional Budget Office for public release.
“When Chairman Comer named me Chairman of the DOGE Subcommittee, I promised to produce legislation that addresses the problems that we uncover as a committee,” said Congressman Burchett (TN-02). “The United States is spiraling towards $40 trillion dollars in debt, and yet we are continuing to waste money on duplicative programs every day. I am proud to have bipartisan support on this bill, and I hope it will bring more transparency to what we are voting on and spending taxpayer money on.”
“This bill will help reduce duplication and ensure federal programs can deliver for our communities,” said Rep. Stansbury (NM-01). “We need federal programs that deliver for the American people, which is why I’m proud to team up with Rep. Tim Burchett on this bipartisan Duplication Scoring Act. Modernizing these programs requires rolling up our sleeves and getting to work—which is why I’m grateful to be working with Rep. Burchett on this important work!”
"Washington has a spending problem, and duplicative federal programs are a big part of it. The Duplication Scoring Act brings much-needed transparency by exposing waste and redundancy in government spending. It’s a commonsense step toward accountability and respecting the hard-earned tax dollars of the American people,” stated Congressman Paul Gosar (AZ-09).

Rep. Burchett's Bill H.R. 2247 PASSES the House
Washington, D.C. (03/24/2026) — Today, the United States House of Representatives passed H.R. 2247, the Airmen Certificate Accessibility Act, a bill aimed at modernizing Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspection processes by allowing pilots to present either physical or digital copies of legally required certification documents. H.R. 2247 was introduced by Rep. Tim Burchett (TN-02).
The legislation amends Title 49 of the United States Code to explicitly authorize airmen to use secure digital versions of their certificates, including those stored on mobile devices or cloud-based platforms, during FAA inspections. Under current practices, pilots are generally expected to carry physical documentation, which can be lost, damaged, or inaccessible in certain situations.
“Technology has advanced, and aviation regulations should reflect that,” said Rep. Burchett. “If passengers can have their boarding passes on their phones, pilots should be able to digitally carry copies of certification documents. My bill will give pilots the flexibility to safely and securely present their credentials in a way that matches today’s digital world.”

Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Passes The Dalilah Law
Position: The release advocates for stricter commercial driver's license requirements, specifically English language proficiency, and attributes recent semitruck accidents to undocumented immigrants obtaining CDLs under what it characterizes as lax enforcement policies.
For Immediate Release:
Washington, DC (March 18, 2026) -- Today, the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee passed The Dalilah Law. Congressman Tim Burchett (TN-02) joined Congressman Rouzer (NC-07) in introducing this important legislation to strengthen roadway safety.
The Dalilah Law comes in the wake of a wreck caused by an illegal alien semitruck driver, leaving a five-year-old child nonverbal and paralyzed due to traumatic brain and back injuries. Under the Biden Administration's open border policy, an unknown number of illegal aliens obtained commercial driver's licenses (CDLs). With an increase in semitruck accidents caused by illegal aliens, The Dalilah Law is essential to providing safety to Americans on our own roads.
“If you can’t read or write in English, you should not be able to drive. Especially a semitruck,” said Congressman Burchett. “Congress needs to put American lives above all else. Our roads should not be littered with illegal aliens operating heavy machinery and forever impacting the lives of innocent American children, like Dalilah Coleman.”

Congressman Burchett Introduces the “American Meat Freedom Act”
Position: Congressman Burchett supports amending the Federal Meat Inspection Act to allow small and medium-scale meat producers to ship and sell products across state lines in interstate commerce, arguing this will strengthen agricultural producers' market access and the nation's agricultural economy.
For Immediate Release:
Washington, DC (March 5, 2026) -- Today, Congressman Tim Burchett (TN02) introduced the “American Meat Freedom Act.” This bill amends the Federal Meat Inspection Act to allow meat products to be shipped, transported, offered for sale, and sold in interstate commerce. It is time we recognized small and medium-scale meat producers who are limited in their ability to access interstate markets.
“A cattle farmer in Campbell County should be able to sell their stock across state lines into Kentucky,” said Congressman Burchett. “With this bill, I hope that we will see a rise in production and sales from our meat producers, so that we can continue to strengthen our nation's agricultural economy.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Congressman Burchett Praises President Trump After the State of the Union
For Immediate Release: As America approaches our 250th birthday, we are stronger, more prosperous, and more respected than ever.
Washington, DC (February 24, 2026) -- Today, Congressman Tim Burchett (TN02) was pleased to attend President Donald J. Trump’s State of the Union address. President Trump has spent his first 13 months in office working for all Americans, closing our southern border, extending his historic tax cuts from 2017, and crime in major US cities has fallen to historic lows. With the introduction of TrumpRx, Americans will be able to obtain the medicines they need at more affordable, fairer prices.
“President Trump is delivering for the American people,” said Congressman Burchett. “In a short amount of time, he has solved the border crisis, slashed harmful red tape for small businesses, and has doubled down on his commitment to cut taxes for all Americans.”
“As America approaches our 250th birthday, we are stronger, more prosperous, and more respected than ever. Our allies respect us and our adversaries once again fear us. Thank you, President Trump, for your historic remarks tonight. The State of the Union is Great Again.”

Congressman Burchett votes in favor of the SAVE America Act
Position: Congressman Burchett voted in favor of the SAVE America Act, which requires documentary proof of U.S. citizenship for voter registration and photo identification for voting in federal elections. He argues the measure is supported by the majority of Americans and represents common-sense election security.
For Immediate Release:
Washington, DC (February 11, 2026) -- Today, Congressman Tim Burchett (TN02) voted YES on the SAVE America Act. The bill was introduced by Congressman Chip Roy (TX21) and is cosponsored by Congressman Burchett. The SAVE America Act requires individuals to provide documentary proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote and to present photo identification to cast a ballot in federal elections.
“Protecting our elections is vital to ensuring that our kids and grandkids still have a country in 50 years. This legislation is supported by the overwhelming majority of Americans, and it is common sense to have to show proof of citizenship at the polls,” said Congressman Burchett. “If Americans have to show an ID to purchase a six pack, check into a hotel room, or fly on a plane, they should have to do the same when they go to vote.”
