Blake's Positions on Key Issues

Economy

High

Blake Moore supports economic growth through tax reform, making permanent tax cuts from the TCJA, and reducing regulations. He advocates for workforce development and promoting domestic energy independence. Moore voted against clean energy tax credits included in the Inflation Reduction Act and introduced legislation to reform the federal budget process and identify redundant federal regulations.

Moore said that’s “totally fair, but we think that those aren’t necessarily accurate” based on economic growth trends since 2017. (Rep. Blake Moore, Utah News Dispatch, August 19, 2025)

Immigration

High

Blake Moore advocates for secure borders and responsible immigration practices, supporting measures like physical and virtual border walls where feasible, and requiring background checks and documentation. He co-sponsored the SAFE KIDS Act to prevent foreign exploitation of the American surrogacy industry. Moore has criticized the Biden administration's immigration policies as a "policy failure," and supported H.R. 2, which aimed to resume border wall construction and mandate E-Verify.

“Letting happen what happened under Biden, it’s actually the worst humanitarian thing you could have ever done,” Blake Moore said in the Deseret News, July 30, 2025.

Healthcare

High

Blake Moore voted in favor of H.R. 6703, legislation designed to lower health care premiums. He also co-introduced the bipartisan Health Accelerating Consumer's Care by Expediting Self-Scheduling (ACCESS) Act to improve health care access and efficiency by reducing regulatory barriers for online booking platforms. Moore advocates for annual congressional approval of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, citing a need to constrain spending and ensure the fiscal soundness and future strength of these programs.

“Out-of-date red tape has kneecapped Medicare and Medicaid patients’ ability to effectively use online booking platforms for their health services. These platforms are regulated by ambiguous pre-Internet Age laws that complicate booking for providers and limit innovation and widespread use,” Rep. Moore said regarding the Health ACCESS Act. “I’m excited to introduce the Health ACCESS Act to clear the way for patients to use 21st-century tools to interact with their health providers.” (Source: blakemoore.house.gov)

Climate & Energy

Medium

Blake Moore voted to defund DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy in 2025 and supported a budget resolution eliminating clean energy incentives. He also voted to roll back the methane polluter fee and block cost-saving efficiency standards. He introduced legislation to bolster wildlife conservation funding and reauthorize the Foundation for America’s Public Lands. His 2025 League of Conservation Voters score was 0%, with a lifetime score of 7%.

Abortion & Reproductive Rights

Medium

Blake Moore voted against the Women’s Health Protection Act in 2026, a bill aimed at protecting the federal right to abortion. He received a 1% score from the League of Conservation Voters for support on abortion access. His voting record also earned him an 87% session score and 71% lifetime score from Heritage Action, an organization aligned with anti-abortion views.

Foreign Policy

High

Blake Moore voted in favor of the FY26 National Defense Authorization Act and supported other national security bills to advance U.S. interests and strengthen the domestic industrial base. He opposed a resolution to remove U.S. forces from Venezuela, emphasizing the principle of peace through strength. Moore also supported the PROTECT Taiwan Act and highlighted the importance of supporting allies such as Israel and deterring threats from adversaries like China.

These packages proactively address this threat by taking a fundamentally conservative approach to foreign policy and national security: peace through strength. Notably, there has never been a more important time to support our ally Israel as they face unprecedented threats from all sides. Ensuring that we take strong deterrence measures, support our allies, and send clear signals to our adversaries are the best possible tools we have to prevent largescale global conflict and ensure the United States never has to fight another world war. (Congressman Blake Moore, Statement on National Security and Foreign Affairs Bills)

Education

High

Congressman Blake Moore supported the University of Utah Research Park Act, which passed the House of Representatives by unanimous consent. He crafted this legislation with university leadership to protect and preserve the nearly 600-acre Research Park. Moore stated this ensures the University of Utah can continue as a premier research incubator, fostering innovation and research.

The University of Utah’s Research Park has been instrumental in putting Utah on the map for innovation, research, … (Congressman Blake Moore, blakemoore.house.gov press release, December 10, 2025)

Gun Policy

High

Blake Moore supports the Second Amendment, which he affirms guarantees an individual's right to keep and bear arms. He co-sponsored the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act to allow individuals with state-issued concealed carry permits to carry in any other state. He opposes legislation that would penalize law-abiding gun owners and believes Congress should focus on mental health resources to prevent violence, rather than federal gun legislation. Heritage Action, a conservative advocacy organization, gave him an 87% score in the current session.

I will oppose any efforts aimed at weakening the Second Amendment. Punishing law-abiding Americans for the violent actions taken by those who seek to cause harm is not a solution to the problems we face in our country. Instead, Congress should work on legislation that keeps firearms out of the hands of those who illegally seek to harm themselves or others while also protecting our fundamental rights." - Blake Moore (from his official House website, 'Second Amendment' issue page)
