Members of Congress would have to buy or lease U.S.-made, union-assembled cars for official use.

Currently, Members of Congress can use their office funds to buy or lease any car for official business. This bill would change that, requiring them to choose vehicles made in the U.S. by union workers. This rule would apply to both Representatives and Senators starting October 1, 2026.

What Would Change

Currently, Representatives and Senators can use their official expense funds to buy or lease any motor vehicle. If this bill passes, starting October 1, 2026, they would only be able to use these funds for vehicles assembled in the United States by unionized workers.

Key Provisions

Blocks House Representatives from using their official expense money to buy or lease cars unless the vehicles are assembled in the United States by unionized workers, starting October 1, 2026.
Blocks Senators from using their official expense money to buy or lease cars unless the vehicles are assembled in the United States by unionized workers, starting October 1, 2026.
