Trump supports proxy voting for new mothers in Congress: 'Don’t know why it’s controversial'

Trump supports proxy voting for new mothers in Congress: 'Don’t know why it’s controversial'

Fox News
Friday, April 4, 2025 2:57 AM GMT

President Donald Trump has publicly backed a bipartisan measure championed by mother and Representative Anna Paulina Luna to allow for proxy voting in Congress for new parents.

Luna and Rep. Brittany Pettersen, D-Colo., are pushing a proposal that would let new parents vote by proxy for 12 weeks while caring for their newborns. With 218 lawmakers backing the move, it has enough support to force a vote. Jasmine is a writer at Fox News Digital and a military spouse based in New Orleans. Stories can be sent to jasmine.baehr@fox.com

Johnson, however, has historically opposed proxy voting, previously calling it unconstitutional and warning it was misused under then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi during COVID. But after Trump’s endorsement, Luna revealed that Johnson reached out to her.

"@SpeakerJohnson has called me after POTUS statement and we discussed limiting the vote to just new moms who cannot physically travel in event of emergency etc. This is smart," Luna tweeted. "Remember: only 13 in US history."
