edit

From 2013 to 2014, Lamb clerked forJoseph Frank Bianco,a federal judge in theUnited States District Court for the Eastern District of New York.Following his clerkship, Lamb was appointed anAssistant United States Attorneyin theUnited States Department of Justice's Pittsburgh office, serving under then-U.S. Attorney for theWestern District of PennsylvaniaDavid J. Hickton.[citation needed]

In 2015, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Pennsylvania gained convictions against three men who were among 34 members of a heroin gang indicted in 2013 after a wiretap investigation by theFBI,theATF,the state attorney general's office and local police. Thomas Hopes, described as the "CEO" of the violent heroin-distribution operation, was sentenced to 24 years in federal prison, and brothers Keith and Gregory Harris were sentenced to 20 years and 121 months in prison, respectively.[15][16][non-primary source needed]

In 2016, the U.S. Attorney's Office gained convictions against two Pittsburgh residents, Brandon Goode and Mychael Scott, who acted as "straw buyers", purchasing firearms for a gun trafficker to help funnel hundreds of illegal weapons into New York City. Goode and Scott were sentenced to 65 and 60 months in prison, respectively.[17]The main gun trafficker, Michael Bassier, was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison.[18]

Elections

edit

2018 special

edit
Lamb at a March 2018 rally

On October 5, 2017, thePittsburgh Post-Gazettereported that Lamb was considering running for Congress in a special election forPennsylvania's 18th congressional district.The district included parts ofAllegheny,Greene,WashingtonandWestmorelandcounties. The vacancy was created when incumbent Republican RepresentativeTim Murphyresigned amid revelations that he had had an extramarital affair and urged his mistress to terminate an unexpected pregnancy, despite his long record as a vocal opponent of abortion.[21]Murphy had run for reelection unopposed in 2014 and 2016.

Lamb was selected as the Democratic nominee at a convention in November 2017.[22]In the general election, he faced Republican State RepresentativeRick Saccone.Despite the district's Republican bent, the special election was considered highly competitive and attracted national attention. National Republican sources spent more than $8 million on television advertising, twice as much as the Democrats. Several prominent Republicans, including PresidentDonald Trump,Vice PresidentMike Penceand Trump's childrenDonald Jr.andIvanka,visited the district to campaign for Saccone.[23]

During the campaign, Republicans accused Lamb of having a "weak record" as a prosecutor.[24]FactCheck.orgexamined the Republicans' claims, calling them "flimsy and misleading".[24]

On the topic of guns, Lamb called for "a stronger system of background checks but no new restrictions". On tariffs, Lamb supported President Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs. On health care, Lamb criticized the Republican attempt to repealObamacareand called for bipartisan efforts to stabilize its markets.[25]

By the end of election night on March 13, 2018, Lamb led by 641 votes.[26][27]When all absentee ballots were counted, Lamb led by 627 votes,[28]with a few provisional and military ballots yet to be counted.[29]Lamb claimed victory on Tuesday night. Early on Wednesday morning, citing the large net pickup of absentee votes for Lamb, NBC News called the race for Lamb.[30]On Wednesday afternoon,The New York Timesfollowed suit after concluding that Lamb's lead, while narrow, appeared "insurmountable".[31]However, most news outlets did not declare a result, noting the closeness of the vote (just 0.2% separated the candidates) and the likelihood of a recount.[29]However, when it became apparent that Saccone would not pick up enough votes to overtake Lamb, he called Lamb to concede the race on March 21.[32]

Lamb's lead came primarily on the strength of winning the Allegheny County portion of the district by almost 15,400 votes. He lost the rest of the district by 14,700 votes.[33]

After Lamb's apparent win in the special election, Republicans claimed that he won because "he ran as a conservative".[34][35]This was a distinct shift from the campaign, during which Republicans said Lamb "Walks The Liberal Party Line" and chastised him for opposing theRepublican 2017 tax reform bill.[34]Lamb ran in opposition to the law, describing it as a "giveaway" to large corporations and a "betrayal" of middle-class Americans.[34]Trump asserted that Lamb had said he "liked Trump", but there is no evidence of Lamb ever doing so.[34]Lamb was certified as the winner on April 2, 2018, winning by 755 votes.[36]He was sworn in byHouse SpeakerPaul Ryanon April 12, 2018,[37]and became the first Democrat to represent this district since 2003, when it was numbered as the 20th district.

2018 general

edit

After thePennsylvania Supreme Courtthrew out the state's original congressional map and replaced it with a court-drawn map, the old 18th was reconfigured as the14th districtand made even more Republican on paper. Meanwhile, Lamb's home in Mt. Lebanon was drawn into the17th district.That district had previously been the12th,represented by three-term RepublicanKeith Rothfus.The district had lost much of its eastern portion, centered aroundJohnstown,becoming a more compact district northwest of Pittsburgh. In the process, the district lost its connection to longtime congressmanJohn Murtha,who represented it from 1974 to 2010. While the old 12th was one of Trump's strongest districts in Pennsylvania in 2016, Trump would have only barely carried the new 17th. The new 17th also voted for Democrats in downballot races. This led to speculation that Lamb would run for a full term in the new 17th, regardless of the special election results.[38]

On March 14,Beaver CountyDemocratic Party chairman Stephen Dupree toldABC Newsthat Lamb submitted a written request for county Democrats to endorse his bid for the 17th in the November 2018 general election; Beaver County is entirely within the new 17th.[39]On March 16, Lamb announced on hisTwitteraccount that he was in the process of gathering petitions for a run in the 17th.[40]On March 20, he formally submitted petitions for a full term in the 17th.[41]He was unopposed in the May 15 primary[42]and defeated Rothfus in the general election.[4]

2020

edit

Lamb won re-election, defeating Republican Sean Parnell, an Army veteran and Trump supporter. At the same time,Joe Bidencarried the district with 50.7 percent of the vote, winning by a slightly larger margin than Lamb.[43][44]Biden supported Lamb as he had in 2018, and Lamb was an early endorser and surrogate for Biden's campaign in that year'spresidential primary elections.[45]Biden was the first Democrat to win the district sinceJohn Kerrywon the old 12th in 2004.

Tenure

edit

Lamb voted againstNancy PelosiasSpeaker of the House,voting instead forJoe Kennedy III,a fellow Democrat.[46]In May 2020, Trump endorsed Lamb's 2020 election opponent while falsely claiming that Lamb had voted for Pelosi as Speaker.[47]

On April 13, 2018, Lamb broke with most of his party and voted for the Volcker Rule Regulation Harmonization Act, which would exempt banks with less than $10 billion in assets from theVolcker Rule,which prohibits banks from making risky investments with customers' money.[48]

On December 18, 2019, Lamb voted for both articles of impeachment against Trump.[49]

In December 2020, Lamb broke with most of his party and voted against theMORE Actwhich would haveremoved cannabis from schedule I of the controlled substance act.[50]

In 2020,Fortunemagazine included Lamb in their '40 Under 40' listing under the "Government and Politics" category.[51]

As of March 2022, Lamb had voted in line withJoe Biden's stated position 100% of the time.[52]
