  Nancy Mace Backed Ending Daylight Saving Time. Then She Didn't Show Up to Vote On It.

  Nancy Mace was recorded Not Voting on the July 14 passage vote, and in her final year in Congress she missed a higher share of roll calls than all but two of the 426 members on the Clerk's record for every roll call. Through September 16 she was Not Voting on 103 of 314 roll calls, 32.8 percent. Two members missed more, and both told the public why. For July 13 and 14, and for most of her other missed votes, we found no reason from her. Her absence did not change the 308 to 117 result, and the Senate has not acted. This page sets the Clerk's record beside her posts, with every source.

  Mace missed another vote yesterday. The only House members skipping more are on medical leave.

  The U.S. House came back on Monday, August 31, 2026 from its five-week August recess, and Rep. Nancy Mace missed both of the first two roll-call votes, one of 42 members absent. It fits a documented pattern: Mace has missed 36.1% of all 2026 votes through August, more than one in three, against a House median near one in fifty. The only two sitting members who have missed a larger share of 2026's votes, Thomas Kean Jr. and Frederica Wilson, were both on disclosed medical leave. Mace has given no public reason for her absences.
