Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.^[100] McClintock voted for the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.^[101] The shutdown ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.^[102] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. McClintock voted against HR 2775.^[103] 2013 Farm Bill[edit] In July 2013 the Republican controlled House narrowly passed a scaled-back version of the farm bill after stripping out the popular food-stamp program.^[104]^[105] The bill passed on a 216-208 vote, with no Democrats voting in favor.^[106] All but 12 Republicans supported the measure.^[107] The group consisted mostly of conservative lawmakers more concerned about spending than farm subsidies.^[107]^[108] McClintock was one of the 12 who voted against the measure.^[107] The farm bill historically has included both billions in farm subsidies and billions in food stamps. Including both of the two massive programs has in the past helped win support from rural-state lawmakers and those representing big cities.^[106] After the bill failed in the House in June 2013 amid opposition from rank-and-file Republicans, House leaders removed the food stamp portion in a bid to attract conservative support.^[106] Federal Pay Adjustment Act[edit] McClintock voted for HR 273 - Eliminates the 2013 Statutory Pay Adjustment for Federal Employees. The bill passed the House on February 15, 2013, with a vote of 261 - 154. The bill called for stopping a 0.5 percent pay increase for all federal workers from taking effect. The raises were projected to cost $11 billion over 10 years.^[109] Immigration[edit] Morton Memos Prohibition[edit] McClintock voted for House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain individuals residing in the United States without legal status.^[110] The vote largely followed party lines.^[111] Healthcare[edit] Healthcare Reform Rules[edit] McClintock voted for House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires that all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.^[112] Social issues[edit] Abortion[edit] McClintock voted for HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196 that largely followed party lines. The purpose of the bill was to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.^[113] Government affairs[edit] HR 676[edit] See also: Boehner's lawsuit against the Obama administration On July 30, 2014, the U.S. House approved a resolution 225 to 201 to sue President Barack Obama for exceeding his constitutional authority. Five Republicans—Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Paul Broun of Georgia, Scott Garrett of New Jersey, Walter Jones of North Carolina and Steve Stockman of Texas—voted with Democrats against the lawsuit.^[114] McClintock joined the other 224 Republicans in favor of the lawsuit. All Democrats voted against the resolution.^[115]^[116] Previous congressional sessions[edit] Fiscal Cliff[edit] McClintock voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was 1 of 151 Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.^[117]

The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that would kick in when prices drop.^[94]^[95] It also cut the food stamp program an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.^[95] McClintock voted with 62 other Republican representatives against the bill.

2014 Budget[edit]

On January 15, 2014, the Republican-run House approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.^[96]^[97] The House voted 359-67 for the 1,582 page bill, with 64 Republicans and three Democrats voting against the bill.^[97] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.^[98] It included a 1 percent increase in the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel, a $1 billion increase in Head Start funding for early childhood education, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency and protected the Affordable Care Act from any drastic cuts. McClintock joined with the 63 other Republicans and 3 Democrats who voted against the bill.^[96]^[97]

Government shutdown[edit]

See also: United States budget debate, 2013

On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.^[99] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.^[100] McClintock voted for the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.^[101]

The shutdown ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.^[102] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. McClintock voted against HR 2775.^[103]

2013 Farm Bill[edit]

In July 2013 the Republican controlled House narrowly passed a scaled-back version of the farm bill after stripping out the popular food-stamp program.^[104]^[105] The bill passed on a 216-208 vote, with no Democrats voting in favor.^[106] All but 12 Republicans supported the measure.^[107] The group consisted mostly of conservative lawmakers more concerned about spending than farm subsidies.^[107]^[108] McClintock was one of the 12 who voted against the measure.^[107]

The farm bill historically has included both billions in farm subsidies and billions in food stamps. Including both of the two massive programs has in the past helped win support from rural-state lawmakers and those representing big cities.^[106] After the bill failed in the House in June 2013 amid opposition from rank-and-file Republicans, House leaders removed the food stamp portion in a bid to attract conservative support.^[106]

Federal Pay Adjustment Act[edit]

McClintock voted for HR 273 - Eliminates the 2013 Statutory Pay Adjustment for Federal Employees. The bill passed the House on February 15, 2013, with a vote of 261 - 154. The bill called for stopping a 0.5 percent pay increase for all federal workers from taking effect. The raises were projected to cost $11 billion over 10 years.^[109]

Immigration[edit]

Morton Memos Prohibition[edit]

McClintock voted for House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain individuals residing in the United States without legal status.^[110] The vote largely followed party lines.^[111]

Healthcare[edit]

Healthcare Reform Rules[edit]

McClintock voted for House Amendment 450 - Requires Congressional Approval for Any Rules Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The amendment was adopted by the House on August 2, 2013, with a vote of 227-185. The amendment requires that all changes to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act be approved by Congress before taking effect. The vote was largely along party lines.^[112]

Social issues[edit]

Abortion[edit]

McClintock voted for HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196 that largely followed party lines. The purpose of the bill was to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.^[113]

All Democrats voted against the resolution.^[115]^[116]

Previous congressional sessions[edit]

Fiscal Cliff[edit]

McClintock voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003 while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was 1 of 151 Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the House by a 257 - 167 vote on January 1, 2013.^[117]

Conservative Fight Club[edit]

According to the conservative website RedState, McClintock was one of 16 U.S. House members in the "Conservative Fight Club," a designation meant to describe the "gold standard for conservatives in the House," as outlined by RedState. They were the 16 Republicans who voted against the continuing appropriations resolution to avoid the impending government shutdown in March 2013. This type of resolution is used to fund government agencies when a formal federal budget has not been approved.^[119]

Campaign themes[edit]

The following issues were listed on McClintock's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“

Economic Growth: We know how to fix an economy because we have done so many times before. Whenever we have reduced the tax and regulatory burdens on the economy, it has thrived and expanded. And whenever we have increased those burdens, the economy has withered and declined.

National Defense: Our modern military should have the latest technology and best equipment our nation can produce. It should have the trained manpower necessary to repel an attack from wherever it may come, launch retaliatory strikes and make hot pursuit in response to provocations.

The Iran Nuclear Agreement: I believe history will look to the Iran nuclear agreement as a mistake as significant as the Munich Accords were to World War II. It gave Iran’s Islamic-Fascist dictators $150 billion in frozen assets with which to pursue their military and terrorist activities and to finance their nuclear arms program.

Healthcare and Obamacare: It is, in short, an unmitigated disaster that I have opposed every step of the way. There is no substitute for its complete repeal.

Water Policy: We will not solve our water shortages until we start building more dams, and we won’t build new dams until we overhaul the environmental regulations that are making their construction cost-prohibitive.

Ballotpedia survey responses

Tom McClintock did not complete Ballotpedia's 2020 Candidate Connection survey.

2014[edit]

McClintock's campaign website listed the following issues:^[130]

“

Economy: "The good news about our economy is that it hasn’t been struck down by some mysterious act of God. Acts of Government plague our nation – and acts of Government are entirely within our power to change."

Immigration: "America is a nation of immigrants. With the singular exception of full-blooded Native Americans, we are all either immigrants ourselves or we are the sons and daughters of immigrants. America’s motto is “E Pluribus Unum” – from many, one. From many nations we have created one great nation – the American nation."

Budget: "The result is that today, our country is another year older and more than a trillion dollars deeper in debt. We have lost our Triple-A credit rating. We have watched our nation’s debt exceed our entire economy, putting us in the same league as the worst-run European governments."

Natural Resources: "Up until a generation ago, federal resources policy could be summed up in a single word: abundance. In 1905, we instituted the National Forest Service under the guidance of Gifford Pinchot, who summed up the agency’s mission with this simple maxim: “The greatest good for the greatest number in the long run.”"

Personal Gain Index[edit]

See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth[edit]

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, McClintock's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $-96,995 and $35,999. That averages to $-30,498, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. McClintock ranked as the 424th most wealthy representative in 2012.^[147] Between 2007 and 2012, McClintock's calculated net worth^[148] decreased by an average of 23 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.^[149]

Tom McClintock Yearly Net Worth
Year	Average Net Worth
2007	$220,404
2012	$-30,498
Growth from 2007 to 2012:	-114%
Average annual growth:	-23%^[150]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.^[151]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric[edit]

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). McClintock received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Retired industry.

From 1991-2014, 20.32 percent of McClintock's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.^[152]
