If you’re seeking out the most Trump-aligned members of Congress, then look no further than the House Freedom Caucus, a 2024 scorecard tracking members’ of Congress’ voting records shows.

Members of the group consistently stand out in their support for President Donald Trump’s priorities according to data from the Institute for Legislative Analysis. The institute graded members of Congress on their commitment to the national Republican Party platform under the president. U.S. Representatives were measured on categories such as “defeat inflation and quickly bring down all prices,” “seal the border and stop the migrant invasion,” and “protect American workers and farmers from unfair trade.”

Seven of the top 10 House members most aligned with Trump are House Freedom Caucus members, which may come as a surprise to Washington insiders. The president and the Freedom Caucus engaged in spirited policy debates this summer as Congress considered the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The caucus successfully negotiated Medicaid spending reductions and added work requirements for the federal entitled program in the legislation. Members of the group later praised president’s transparency and commitment to addressing conservative concerns during the process.

Reacting to the rankings, Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., said “Many representatives champion the America First Agenda on the campaign trail, only to do the opposite in Washington, D.C. I’m proud to be one of the few who stand firm and use my voice, vote, and platform when it matters most.”

Zooming out to the top 20 House members, 11 are members of the caucus, and a majority of the highest 30 House members are in the group. 

Responding to the legislative analysis, Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., who chairs the conservative caucus, said “As I have said many times, pound for pound, or on a per capita basis, House Freedom Caucus Members are the strongest caucus supporters of President Trump’s agenda … this proves that yet again.” 

The House Freedom Caucus was founded in 2015 and has established itself as a reliably conservative voice on a variety of policy matters. Last week, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, R-La., reaffirmed his commitment to not backing down from the Democrat government shutdown in a call with members of the caucus. 

The caucus has also advocated for conditional federal funding of the District of Columbia to clean up civil society through conservative drug and gun policies, and caucus members have been stalwart supporters of cutting government waste.

Rep. Ralph Norman, R-S.C., who is currently a candidate to be the next governor of South Carolina, praised Trump for his leadership.

“President Trump is leading our country with strength and common sense—and I’m proud to stand with him,” the South Carolina congressman said. 

“We’re securing the border, rebuilding the economy, and restoring American energy dominance. The America First agenda is working, and I’ll keep backing the President every step of the way,” Norman added.
