Biography & Current Office
Background & current office
Mark E. Amodei is the Republican U.S. representative for Nevada’s 2nd District and has served in the House since a September 2011 special election. Before Congress he served in the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General Corps, practiced law, served in the Nevada Assembly and Nevada Senate, and led the Nevada Mining Association.
The current House Clerk lists Amodei on Appropriations and Natural Resources. His official office identifies him as chairman of the Homeland Security Appropriations Subcommittee and also records service on Financial Services and General Government, Interior-Environment, Federal Lands, and Natural Resources oversight subcommittees. Those responsibilities are maintained as institutional public record rather than evidence-rated claims.
This editorial entry is limited to sourced biography and current institutional responsibilities. Routine votes, campaign finance, associations and partisan positions remain in the public-record layer unless a specific fact-checkable claim warrants a separate evidence review.

Recent Recorded Votes
Official recorded-vote record
TrumpsMouth keeps vote data in the public-record layer rather than treating a vote by itself as a factual controversy. Use the official chamber roll-call database to inspect current votes; claim-specific vote explanations are added only when a sourced allegation requires them.
Sponsored/Cosponsored & Curated Notable Legislation
Legislation & official congressional activity
No legislation has been promoted into the curated editorial layer for this member yet. That is intentional: TrumpsMouth does not manufacture a “notable bill” merely to fill a profile.
Use the official federal records below to review sponsored legislation, roll-call activity and current office statements. TrumpsMouth will add claim-specific vote explanations only when a particular vote or legislative action is actually part of a sourced claim.
