HOUSE VOTES

REPEALING HEALTH CARE PROVISIONS: House passed the Restoring Americans' Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act (H.R. 3762), sponsored by Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga. The bill would repeal the health-care reform law's medical device excise tax, repeal the employer health insurance mandate and repeal the individual health insurance mandate. The vote, on Oct. 23, was 240 yeas to 189 nays.

YEAS: Graves (MO) R-MO (6th), Hartzler R-MO (4th), Long R-MO (7th), Luetkemeyer R-MO (3rd), Smith (MO) R-MO (8th), Wagner R-MO (2nd)

BROKERS AND INVESTMENT ADVICE: The House passed the Retail Investor Protection Act (H.R. 1090), sponsored by Rep. Ann Wagner, R-Mo. The bill would require the Securities and Exchange Commission to take into account potential harm to retail investors when proposing a rule setting out a standard of conduct for investment advisors. Wagner said as currently designed, the proposed rule would increase compliance costs for the advisers, potentially prompting them to drop small retirement accounts established by " Americans who are just starting to save and haven't built up their retirement nest egg." A bill opponent, Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., said it would derail the SEC's efforts to prevent conflicts of interest in which advisers provide investing advice to individuals based on the commissions they receive from investment firms rather than based on what it best for their clients. The vote, on Oct. 27, was 245 yeas to 186 nays.
