Trade adjustment assistance
Nay3.png On June 12, 2015, the House rejected the trade adjustment assistance (TAA) measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015—by a vote of 126-302. Trade adjustment assistance (TAA) is a federal program providing American workers displaced by foreign trade agreements with job training and services. The measure was packaged with trade promotion authority (TPA), also known as fast-track authority. TPA is a legislative procedure that allows Congress to define "U.S. negotiating objectives and spells out a detailed oversight and consultation process for during trade negotiations. Under TPA, Congress retains the authority to review and decide whether any proposed U.S. trade agreement will be implemented," according to the Office of the United States Trade Representative. Ribble was one of 158 Republicans to vote against TAA.[8][9]
Trade promotion authority
Yea3.png On June 12, 2015, the House passed the trade promotion authority (TPA) measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015 —by a vote of 219-211. TPA gives the president fast-track authority to negotiate trade agreements sent to Congress without the opportunity for amendment or filibuster. Although the House approved TPA, it was a largely symbolic vote given the measure was part of a package trade bill including trade adjustment assistance (TAA), which was rejected earlier the same day. Ribble was one of 191 Republicans to support the measure.[10][11]
Trade promotion authority second vote
Yea3.png After the trade adjustment assistance (TAA) and trade promotion authority (TPA) did not pass the House together on June 12, 2015, representatives voted to authorize TPA alone as an amendment to HR 2146—the Defending Public Safety Employees' Retirement Act—on June 18, 2015. The amendment passed by a vote of 218-208, with all voting members of the House maintaining their original positions on TPA except for Ted Yoho (R-Fla.). Ribble was one of 190 Republicans to vote in favor of the amendment.[12][13]
Trade adjustment assistance second vote
Nay3.png The House passed HR 1295—the Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015—on June 25, 2015, by a vote of 286-138. The Senate packaged trade adjustment assistance (TAA) in this bill after the House rejected the TAA measure in HR 1314—the Trade Act of 2015. Along with trade promotion authority (TPA), which Congress passed as part of HR 2146—the Defending Public Safety Employees' Retirement Act—TAA became law on June 29, 2015. Ribble was one of 132 Republicans to vote against HR 1295.[14][15]

It does not provide budget authority, which is provided in subsequent appropriations legislation."

HR 3460 prohibited "the President, prior to January 21, 2017, from: limiting the application of specified sanctions on Iran or refraining from applying any such sanctions; or removing a foreign person (including entities) listed in Attachments 3 or 4 to Annex II of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPA) from the list of designated nationals and blocked persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury."

Ribble was part of a group of Republican members of Congress who said they would not endorse or vote for Donald Trump. On December 11, 2015, Ribble said, "I am not obligated to support a bad candidate from any party. I will not support Donald Trump for president of the United States, no matter what the circumstances. ... There’s a natural concern, particularly among members of the party in leadership roles: You want to be cautious about stating opinions about Mr. Trump without making statements about Mr. Trump’s supporters. I don’t want to offend anyone that’s supporting Mr. Trump. They’ve got their own reasons for supporting him. I’ve got my reasons for not."[75]

Personal Gain Index

Congressional Personal Gain Index graphic.png
See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives
Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Ribble's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $777,019 to $6,279,999. That averages to $3,528,509, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican House members in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Ribble ranked as the 98th most wealthy representative in 2012.[81] Between 2009 and 2012, Ribble's calculated net worth[82] increased by an average of 31 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[83]

Reid Ribble Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2009$1,818,140
2012$3,528,509
Growth from 2009 to 2012:94%
Average annual growth:31%[84]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[85]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Ribble received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Health Professionals industry. Comparatively, the top industry employer in Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District was Manufacturing, according to a 2012 U.S. Census survey.[86]

From 2009-2014, 26.75 percent of Ribble's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[87]
