Dunn says he has received support from "mostly small businessmen" in his district for supporting the bill. Education Dunn wants to defund the Department of Education. Healthcare Dunn supports repealing the Affordable Care Act, which he says is "failing", saying "no one can afford" the premiums and deductibles. 2020 presidential election certification In December 2020, Dunn was one of 126 Republican members of the House of Representatives to sign an amicus brief in support of Texas v. Pennsylvania, a lawsuit filed at the United States Supreme Court contesting the results of the 2020 presidential election, in which Joe Biden defeated incumbent Donald Trump. The Supreme Court declined to hear the case on the basis that Texas lacked standing under Article III of the Constitution to challenge the results of an election held by another state. After the 2021 storming of the Capitol, Dunn condemned the rioters, but still voted to object to the certification of several states' electoral votes. Israel Dunn voted to provide Israel with support following 2023 Hamas attack on Israel. Personal life Dunn and his wife, Leah, have three sons and three grandsons.
