Congressman Taylor Introduces Bill to Return More Federal Lands Revenue to Ohio

Position: Introduces legislation to change the federal revenue-sharing formula so states receive 50% rather than 25% of qualifying energy development revenue from federally acquired lands, including the Wayne National Forest.

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) today introduced the Acquired Lands Revenue Modernization Act, which would increase the share of qualifying revenue states receive from energy development on federally acquired lands. This bill would double the share of revenue generated through energy development in the Wayne National Forest back to southern Ohio communities. Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) introduced companion legislation in the Senate today. “Ohio is leading the nation in energy development, and the Wayne National Forest plays a critical role in that effort,” said Congressman Taylor. “With more than 240,000 acres of land located almost entirely in Ohio’s Second Congressional District, our communities deserve to reap more of the rewards of energy development taking place in our own backyard. I’m proud to lead this effort to keep revenue close to home and ensure southern Ohio communities share in the economic benefits of American energy production.” Under current law, states receive 25% of qualifying revenue generated from energy development on federally qualified lands, while the government retains 75%. The Acquired Lands Revenue Modernization Act would establish an even 50/50 revenue split, returning a greater share from federal land leases, rentals, and royalties to the states where development occurs. This change would provide additional resources to support communities near these projects. The Acquired Lands Revenue Modernization Act will be referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources for consideration. The full bill text is available here. ### Issues: Congress Economy

Congressman Taylor Joins Ohio Trucking Leaders in Roundtable Discussion

Position: Rep. Taylor expresses support for Ohio's trucking industry, supports strong CDL safety standards, and seeks to ensure safe coexistence of commercial trucks and families on roads, while noting the industry's economic importance.

CHILLICOTHE, OH – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) today joined the Ohio Trucking Association and local trucking industry leaders in a roundtable discussion at Kenworth on the critical role trucking plays in Ohio’s economy and the challenges trucking companies are facing across the state. Representatives from local companies shared their perspective and discussed ways Congress could best support the industry and promote safety on Ohio’s roads. “America’s trucking industry moves 11 billion tons of goods more than 300 billion miles each year, and serves as the backbone of our economy,” said Congressman Taylor. “I was grateful to hear directly from Ohio’s trucking professionals today about the challenges they’re facing on the road and how I can best support them in Congress. As the founder of the Congressional Trucking Caucus, I will continue fighting to support Ohio’s hardworking truck drivers, uphold strong CDL safety standards, and ensure commercial trucks and families can safely share the road.” Congressman Taylor is a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and is the founding member of the bipartisan Congressional Trucking Caucus, where he works to advance policies that support America’s trucking industry, strengthen highway safety, and keep goods moving across the country. ### Issues: Congress Transportation and Infrastructure

Taylor Leads Bill to Fight Fraud in Federal Healthcare Systems

Position: Supports the Integrity for Taxpayers Act, which would close a loophole allowing individuals to escape accountability for misconduct in federal healthcare programs after leaving their positions and would strengthen HHS-OIG's ability to pursue fraud and protect taxpayer dollars.

WASHINGTON, DC – Representatives Dave Taylor (OH-02), Michael Rulli (OH-06), Chuck Fleischman (TN-03), and Roger Williams (TX-25) today introduced the Integrity for Taxpayers Act, which would hold bad actors accountable for misconduct within federal healthcare systems, protect taxpayer dollars, and restore integrity to the systems and services that Americans rely on. “Taxpayer dollars funding federal healthcare programs are designed to serve vulnerable Americans who depend on them, not pad the pockets of fraudsters chasing a quick payday,” said Representative Dave Taylor. “I am proud to lead the effort to root out waste, fraud, and abuse from our federal healthcare systems and hold bad actors accountable who are rigging the system for their own personal gain. In Congress, I will continue working to catch fraudsters in the act and restore integrity to the services that Buckeye families depend on.” “Hardworking Americans should not have to foot the bill for fraudsters abusing our federal healthcare programs. The Integrity for Taxpayers Act closes a loophole that allows bad actors to slip through the cracks and strengthens HHS-OIG’s ability to protect taxpayer dollars. We must root out waste, fraud, and abuse wherever it exists,” said Representative Michael Rulli. "If you break the rules and cheat hardworking Americans, you shouldn’t get a free pass just because you’ve left the job. The Integrity for Taxpayers Act closes that loophole and gives HHS the ability to go after these fraudsters. We’re making it clear: if you cheat the system, you'll face consequences,” said Representative Chuck Fleischmann. “Hardworking Americans deserve to know that their taxpayer dollars are being protected from waste, fraud, and abuse. When bad actors take advantage of federal programs, they must be held accountable," said Representative Roger Williams. "The Integrity for Taxpayers Act closes a loophole that allows individuals to escape responsibility simply by leaving their position. This bill strengthens the ability of the Office of Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to hold bad actors accountable and protect taxpayer dollars.” “America’s seniors have spent a lifetime paying into the programs they rely on, and they deserve to know that their hard-earned tax dollars are being protected. The Integrity for Taxpayers Act would strengthen the government’s ability to hold accountable individuals who seek to profit improperly from federal health care programs and help close a loophole that can allow bad actors to escape scrutiny. By giving HHS-OIG greater ability to protect Medicare and other federal health care dollars from waste, fraud, and abuse, this legislation can help ensure that more of these precious resources are available for the seniors and other vulnerable Americans who depend on them. The 60 Plus Association is proud to support Congressman Taylor’s efforts that promote accountability, protect taxpayers, and safeguard the integrity of our nation’s health care programs,” said President Saul Anuzis of the 60 Plus Association. "With our national debt now exceeding $40 trillion, protecting every taxpayer dollar and cracking down on fraud is more important than ever. Thankfully, Congressman Taylor’s Integrity for Taxpayers Act takes an important step toward that goal by closing a loophole in federal law that allows bad actors to abuse federal health care programs. NTU is proud to support this legislation and looks forward to working with Congressman Taylor to advance this pro-taxpayer bill and see it reach President Trump’s desk," said Thomas Aiello, Vice President of Federal Affairs at National Taxpayers Union. Background: Under current law, the Office of Inspector General at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS-OIG) has the authority to exclude individuals and entities that have committed misconduct (such as licensed healthcare practitioners, administrators, hospitals, pharmacies, or third-party vendors) from participating in federal healthcare programs. However, a loophole states that HHS-OIG exclusions can generally only be enforced upon a bad actor in the role in which they committed the misconduct, meaning they can evade the consequences by moving on to a different role. This allows these fraudsters to evade accountability, limiting the ability of HHS-OIG to enforce consequences and ensure taxpayer dollars are used properly. The Integrity for Taxpayers Act would give HHS-OIG the authority needed to enforce exclusions from participation in federal healthcare systems, hold fraudsters accountable, and safeguard taxpayer dollars. The 60 Plus Association and the National Taxpayers Union are supporting organizations of this bill.

Taylor Introduces Bill to Deliver Justice to Veterans and Victims of Terrorism

Position: The release supports introducing legislation directing the GAO to study the cost of allowing victims of attempted extrajudicial killing by state sponsors of terrorism to sue and receive compensation through the USVSST Fund, and argues that veterans and terror victims should have access to the courts for such claims.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) today introduced the Justice for Veterans and Victims of Terrorism Act, which would deliver justice to victims of attempted extrajudicial killing by state sponsors of terrorism. This bill would direct the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to conduct a study assessing the cost of allowing victims of attempted extrajudicial killing to sue terrorists and receive compensation through the U.S. Victims of State-Sponsored Terrorism (USVSST) Fund. “America’s veterans and citizens should not have to die to get their day in court. My Justice for Veterans and Victims of Terrorism Act will begin to close a loophole in our legal system that has disenfranchised Americans for too long, holding terrorists accountable and putting Americans first,” said Congressman Taylor. “Last week, on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, our nation honored the countless victims and heroes whose lives were forever changed by the heinous terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. America’s legal system should not leave behind those who have sacrificed to protect our nation or citizens who have fallen victim to terrorism. I look forward to working with my colleagues in Congress to restore justice to those who are owed it.” “The Justice for Veterans and Victims of Terrorism Act sends a clear message that the United States will stand behind those who were injured by terrorism and the families of those who never came home,” said James L. McCormick II, Legislative Director of the Military Order of the Purple Heart and former National Commander. “Our veterans answered the call to defend this nation, often at tremendous personal cost. They should never be denied a meaningful opportunity to pursue justice against the individuals, organizations, financial institutions, or foreign sponsors responsible for supporting the terrorism that caused their injuries.” “This study is an important first step for Congress to understand how many service members and civilians have been affected by a loophole in the law that has precluded them from justice, and to evaluate the fiscal requirements needed to responsibly implement a change to the FSIA,” said Traci Cutler-Nordmeyer, Member, American Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism United. "Vietnam Veterans of America strongly supports this bill, which directs the GAO to study expanding the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act to cover non-fatal and psychiatric injuries sustained in state-sponsored acts of terror. Following a court ruling that restricted judicial recourse under the FSIA terrorism exception exclusively to cases involving death, American service members and citizens who survive horrific attacks are routinely blocked from holding hostile foreign regimes accountable. This study is a critical step toward closing that unjust legal loophole, ensuring our nation’s veterans and terror survivors finally get their day in court and access to the justice they deserve," said Michael Fimmano, Chief Legislative Officer of Vietnam Veterans of America. Background: The terrorism exception to the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 allows American victims of terrorism to sue state sponsors of terrorism for certain acts, including torture, extrajudicial killing, and aircraft sabotage. Eligible victims can seek monetary compensation from the USVSST Fund. In Borochov v. Islamic Republic of Iran, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the terrorism exception only applied in cases where death occurs, even if there were severe injuries sustained because of a terrorist attack. This decision was appealed to the Supreme Court, but the Court denied the petition in 2025, leaving countless American veterans and citizens without a legal forum to obtain justice. Congressman Taylor’s Justice for Veterans and Victims of Terrorism Act would bring victims one step closer to justice by directing a GAO study to be conducted on how these additional victims could be compensated for their injuries. The Military Order of the Purple Heart, American Victims of State-Sponsored Terrorism United, and Vietnam Veterans of America are supporting organizations of this bill.

Congressman Taylor Votes to Shield Ohioans from Rising Data Center Energy Costs

Position: The release states support for H.R. 9340, the Ratepayer Protection Act, which would set a federal standard requiring large-load electricity users such as AI data centers to bear energy costs they impose so that consumers are shielded from price increases.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) released the following statement on today’s passage of H.R. 9340, the Ratepayer Protection Act. This bill would establish a federal standard for protecting American consumers from surging energy costs resulting from local large-load electricity users like AI data centers. “Ohio is rapidly emerging as a national hub for digital infrastructure, and Buckeye families should not have to bear rising energy costs resulting from local data center development,” said Congressman Taylor. “Today, I was proud to vote in support of the Ratepayer Protection Act to ensure data centers pay their fair share and shield consumers from soaring prices. Winning the AI race against adversaries like China should not come at the expense of Americans’ pocketbooks, and I encourage local, state, and federal officials to continue working collaboratively to enhance transparency in the development process, establish Ohio as a national energy leader, and ensure our state remains an affordable place to live and raise a family for generations to come.” The bill text of the Ratepayer Protection Act is available here. ### Issues: Congress Economy

Congressman Taylor, Figures Introduce REVOKE Act to Crack Down on Chameleon Carriers

Position: The release supports the REVOKE Act, which would affirm that commercial carriers must hold an active USDOT number to operate, require FMCSA to issue active numbers only after registration requirements are met, and authorize the Secretary of Transportation to immediately inactivate numbers of carriers lacking valid registration or failing to make required updates.

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) and Congressman Shomari Figures (AL-02) introduced the Registration Enforcement for Vehicle Operations of Known Evaders (REVOKE) Act, which will strengthen Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) authority to prevent chameleon carriers from exploiting USDOT registration systems to illegally operate on American roads. “For too long, chameleon carriers have exploited gaps in federal enforcement to evade accountability and jeopardize countless American lives,” said Congressman Taylor. “Every commercial vehicle on our nation’s highways should be operated by a driver who is following the rules, not a bad actor hiding behind inactive or illegitimate USDOT numbers. The REVOKE Act will give the Department of Transportation the tools it needs to shut down this dangerous practice, keep unqualified and unsafe operators off American roads, and prevent needless tragedies caused by reckless and unqualified CDL drivers.” “Every day, families share the road with commercial trucks, and they deserve to know that the carriers behind the wheel are held to certain safety standards,” said Congressman Figures. “Chameleon carriers have dodged accountability by simply rotating their USDOT number and popping back up under a new name. I’m proud to introduce this commonsense bill with Congressman Taylor to combat this issue and improve road safety for families in Alabama and across the country.” “Chameleon carriers evade federal oversight by cycling through new registrations, putting everyone at risk. The trucking industry is committed to maintaining the highest safety standards on America’s highways, which is why we appreciate FMCSA’s ongoing efforts to identify and remove bad actors who attempt to circumvent the rules,” said American Trucking Associations SVP of Legislative Affairs Alex Rosen. “The REVOKE Act would enhance FMCSA’s enforcement actions by cracking down on carriers seeking to operate under inactive USDOT numbers. ATA applauds Reps. Taylor and Figures for introducing this legislation to strengthen the integrity of our nation’s motor carrier safety framework.” Specifically, this bill: Affirms that a carrier’s USDOT number must be active in order for them to legally operate on American roadways; Clarifies that the Secretary of Transportation will only issue an active USDOT number to an individual or employer once determining that all requirements for registration are met; Grants the Secretary of Transportation authority to immediately inactivate the USDOT number of an individual or employer if they do not have valid registration, or if they fail to make any required periodic updates to the Secretary. The American Trucking Associations (ATA) is a supporting organization of this bill. Congressman Taylor and Congressman Figures serve on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and are founding Co-Chairs of the Congressional Trucking Caucus.

Congressman Taylor, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins Release Joint Op-Ed on Protecting America’s Farmland and Food Security

Position: The release states that federal subsidies should not fund solar installations on prime farmland and that USDA should not fund solar panels from foreign adversaries, arguing that farmland is needed for food and fuel production and national security.

WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) and United States Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins published a joint op-ed this morning in the Cincinnati Enquirer emphasizing that the United States must not sacrifice food security in the pursuit of energy production. With 83 percent of present-day utility-scale solar installations located on farmland, Taylor and Rollins argue that protecting prime farmland from taxpayer-subsidized solar development is critical to safeguarding America’s food supply and strengthening national security. Read the full op ed here or excerpts below: “Under the Biden administration, billions of dollars in federal subsidies and "green" energy tax credits pushed large-scale solar developments onto farmland, often with panels imported from China. As a result, solar construction has more than doubled since 2020. Farmers were put in the impossible position of competing against Washington-backed, foreign-supported energy companies.” … “We shouldn’t be subsidizing solar projects on prime farmland, that land is too valuable for producing the food and fuel our nation depends on.” … “Last summer, USDA announced that it will no longer fund solar panels on productive farmland and will ban the use of panels manufactured by foreign adversaries in USDA-supported projects. This is a needed course correction and a win for our rural communities, a win for our farmers, and a win for America.” … “Farmers are the backbone of America. They show up in every season, in every kind of weather, to do work that cannot be outsourced, automated, or delayed. We owe it to them, and to future generations, to protect the land they depend on.” Background Congressman Taylor introduced the Protecting American Farmland Act on May 8, 2025, which would prohibit U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) funds from being used for solar panels on prime farmland. This bill passed through the House of Representatives on April 30, 2026, as part of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, also known as the Farm Bill. Secretary Rollins and Congressman Taylor discussed the importance of protecting prime farmland from taxpayer-subsidized solar development on June 11, 2025, in a House Agriculture Committee hearing. Secretary Rollins expressed the Trump Administration’s full support of this effort. Congressman Taylor is a Member of the House Agriculture Committee, where he serves on Subcommittees for General Farm Commodities, Risk Management, and Credit, as well as Commodity Markets, Digital Assets and Rural Development. ### Issues: Agriculture Congress

ICYMI: Congressman Taylor Holds Transportation Roundtable with U.S. Chamber and Clermont Chamber

Position: The release states that investing in local roads, bridges, and transportation systems is important, and that Congress should pass a surface transportation reauthorization bill that provides certainty and strengthens infrastructure.

CINCINNATI, OH – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) recently held a transportation roundtable with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Clermont Chamber of Commerce as part of the U.S. Chamber’s nationwide series to discuss the importance of investing in local transportation and infrastructure systems. This roundtable brought together local and national Chamber leaders and business representatives for a conversation about the ongoing Surface Transportation Reauthorization in Congress, the infrastructure needs facing Ohio, and how leaders could collaborate to ensure safe and reliable roads for Ohio families and businesses. “Rural Appalachian families and businesses have had to make do with outdated infrastructure for too long. Investing in our local roads, bridges, and transportation systems means families can safely take their kids to school, and growing businesses can count on reliable routes to transport their goods,” said Congressman Taylor. “Thank you to the U.S. Chamber and Clermont Chamber for bringing local leaders together to discuss how we can keep our Appalachian communities moving forward. I especially want to thank Commissioner David Painter and County Engineer Jeremy Evans, who took the time to participate and lend their expertise. In Congress, I will continue fighting to bring federal dollars back home and ensure Ohio has the infrastructure it needs to grow and thrive.” “Today’s roundtable made clear that passing a surface transportation bill is essential to keeping our economy moving and ensuring businesses have the infrastructure they need to compete and grow,” said Kevin Courtois, Vice President of the U.S. Chamber’s Great Lakes Region. “From small businesses to manufacturers and logistics providers, employers depend on safe and reliable roads, bridges, and transportation networks to get workers to their jobs and products to customers. We appreciate Congressman Dave Taylor, the Clermont Chamber, and Total Quality Logistics for convening local business leaders to hear directly about these challenges and discuss solutions. We urge Congress to move forward with a surface transportation bill that delivers certainty, strengthens our infrastructure, and supports economic growth.” “Strong, reliable infrastructure is essential to Clermont County’s continued growth and to the success of the businesses that call our community home,” said Joy Lytle, President and CEO of the Clermont Chamber of Commerce. “Hosting this conversation at Total Quality Logistics, one of Clermont County’s largest employers and a company whose business depends every day on an efficient transportation network, underscores just how important these investments are to our local and national economy. We appreciate Congressman David Taylor and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce for bringing business leaders together to discuss how we can continue investing in the roads, bridges and transportation systems that keep Clermont County competitive and our economy moving forward.” Congressman Taylor is a Member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, where he serves on the Highways and Transit Subcommittee.

Taylor and Shreve Introduce Bill to Kick Illegal Alien CDL Drivers Off American Roads

Position: Representatives Taylor and Shreve introduced legislation to require states to report non-domiciled commercial driver's license holders to federal authorities and to authorize the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to access immigration status databases to verify lawful presence before CDL issuance, with the stated goal of identifying and removing undocumented immigrants from commercial driving roles.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Representatives Dave Taylor (OH-02) and Jefferson Shreve (IN-06) today introduced H.R. 8640, the Non-Domiciled CDL Reporting Act, to identify illegal aliens who hold Commercial Drivers' Licenses, facilitate their removal from American roads, and keep American families safe. “For too long, Democrat-run states have handed out non-domiciled CDLs to illegal aliens, demonstrating a complete disregard for the safety of American families on our roads,” said Congressman Taylor. “I’m proud to introduce this bill with Congressman Shreve to close the gaps in our reporting systems and identify illegal aliens who hold CDLs so law enforcement can get these dangerous drivers off our roads.” "This is about public safety and basic accountability. If someone is being issued a commercial driver’s license in the United States, we should know they are lawfully eligible to receive it. Closing this gap strengthens oversight, enforces the law, and helps keep our roads safe,” said Congressman Shreve. Under current law, states are not required to report information regarding non-domiciled CDL awardees to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), creating a dangerous loophole that enables illegal aliens to drive heavy commercial vehicles on American roads. However, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) maintains an online service called the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, which provides point-in-time immigration status and U.S. citizenship information to federal, state, local, territorial, and tribal agencies. The Non-Domiciled CDL Reporting Act would allow FMCSA to access the SAVE system to ensure lawful presence for all non-domiciled CDL applicants. Specifically, this bill would: Direct USCIS to grant FMCSA access to the SAVE system; Require states to transmit non-domiciled CDL applicants’ data to FMCSA; Direct FMCSA to run applicants’ data through the SAVE system to ensure lawful presence; Direct FMCSA to report to USCIS if any non-domiciled CDL license holder has an unlawful presence in the United States; and Provide a report to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee containing information on how many non-domiciled CDL holders were flagged using the SAVE system and the state where the licenses were awarded.

Congressman Taylor Applauds House Passage of Farm Bill

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Dave Taylor (OH-02) today applauded passage of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, also known as the Farm Bill, through the House of Representatives by a vote of 224-200. “After delivering an historic $66 billion to support American agriculture through President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts, I’m proud to advance a robust Farm Bill that further meets the needs of Ohio’s farmers, ranchers, and producers,” said Congressman Taylor. “This legislation reflects Republicans’ commitment to the men and women who feed our families, drive our economy, and safeguard our nation’s food supply. With 96% of farms in Ohio’s Second Congressional District being family-owned, this bill will strengthen Buckeye families and help ensure they thrive for generations to come.” “Working in Congress on behalf of our nation’s farmers, ranchers, and rural communities is an honor — even when the work requires debating the farm bill through the night,” Chairman Glenn Thompson (PA-15) of the House Agriculture Committee said. “I can think of no more important work than championing the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026, and I am extremely pleased to see this bill pass out of the House of Representatives with a strong bipartisan vote.” Four of Congressman Taylor’s bills were passed in the Farm Bill: Rural Broadband Assistance Act, which helps small, rural Appalachian communities connect to the modern economy Water Infrastructure Assistance Reauthorization Act, which provides support for rural towns to modernize and update their water infrastructure Rural Wellness Act, which addresses behavioral and mental health challenges in rural America, including substance abuse Protecting American Farmland Act, which prohibits U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) funds from being used for solar panels on prime farmland Background: The Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 was introduced on February 13, 2026, and would reauthorize USDA programs through 2031. On March 5, 2026, Congressman Taylor voted to advance this bill through the House Agriculture Committee, which passed with a bipartisan vote of 34-17. The last full Farm Bill passed by Congress was in December of 2018, otherwise known as the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018. Many of the Farm Bill provisions were included in short-term extensions in 2023, 2024, and 2025 to support American farmers, ranchers, producers, and consumers. On July 4, 2025, the largest investment in America’s agriculture industry was signed into law through President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts Act, which laid the groundwork for the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026. Among many other investments, this bill: Reduced the cost of crop insurance Doubled agriculture trade programs to send U.S. products around the world Increased and made permanent the Death Tax exemption Invested in animal disease prevention to protect America’s food supply The full bill text of the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 is available here.
