Dan Newhouse: A Record of Betrayal
Revised January 2024
Throughout his congressional career, Dan Newhouse has repeatedly cast votes that are contrary to the conservative values of Washington’s 4th Congressional District. While he or his allies use deceptive rhetoric or outright lie to deceive voters, his votes are a matter of public record.
- Voted to Impeach President Trump. Dan Newhouse betrayed his voters by joining Democrats to impeach President Trump in 2021. Even with all the evidence that J6 was a set up, Dan has not rescinded his impeachment vote or lifted a finger to assist the J6 political prisoners.

- Voted for a Federal Red Flag Law. Dan Newhouse joined Nancy Pelosi in supporting the NDA Act of 2021 which contained a Red Flaw law allowing the government to violate the 2nd Amendment and seize the personal firearms of servicemembers without due process.

If Nancy Pelosi gets this into the military code, then it becomes the ‘precedent’ for enforcing gun confiscation against the rest of the population.” (117th Congress, H.R. 4350.)
