Caucuses & Coalitions
The Blue Dog Coalition is a group of fiscally responsible, national-security-focused Democrats committed to pragmatic, bipartisan solutions.
The Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus (CAPAC) is composed of members of Congress advocating for the rights and interests of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders.
The Congressional Black Caucus is committed to using the power of the federal government to advance the interests of Black Americans and other marginalized communities.
The Congressional Equality Caucus (formerly the LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus) works to advance the equality and civil rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) Americans through federal legislation and oversight. It is the largest LGBTQ+ caucus in Congress.
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus (CHC) is organized to address national and international issues and the impact of federal policy on the Hispanic and Latino community.
The Congressional Progressive Caucus advocates for progressive policy positions including economic justice, civil rights, and a foreign policy based on diplomacy and human rights.
Republicans associated with the Tea Party movement created the Freedom Caucus in 2015 to push their conference farther to the right on federal spending and immigration policy. It has leveraged its voting block to oppose House leaders who do not adopt its more conservative positions on spending and taxation, leading to the resignation of Speaker John Boehner and removal of Speaker Kevin McCarthy. It has hewed closer to support of the Trump Administrations than other Republican caucuses.
The Republican Main Street Caucus is a group of pragmatic, governance-focused House Republicans.
The New Democrat Coalition is a group of forward-thinking Democrats focused on pro-economic-growth, pro-innovation, and fiscally responsible policies.
The Problem Solvers Caucus is a bipartisan group in the House, with equal numbers of Republicans and Democrats, that seeks common ground on key policy issues.
Originally called the “Tuesday Lunch Bunch,” then the Tuesday Group, now known as RG2 was founded by Republican members who were less supportive of the conservative social and economic policies of the new House majority in 1994. It has trended toward Trump positions more recently, but its members typically stay out of the limelight.
The Republican Study Committee is the largest caucus of conservatives in the House, advancing conservative policy on the economy, national security, and social issues.
