Frank C. Guinta (b. September 26, 1970) is a former Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives, representing New Hampshire's 1st Congressional District from 2015 to 2017. Guinta previously served in the House from 2011 to 2013, but he lost his re-election bid to Carol Shea-Porter (D) in 2012. Guinta regained his seat in 2014, in a third match-up between the two candidates.[1]

Guinta lost his re-election bid in 2016.[2] Guinta sought re-election despite initial calls for his resignation from Republicans, including Sen. Kelly Ayotte, following a campaign finance violation regarding illegal contributions. He was defeated by Carol Shea-Porter (D) in the general election in their fourth consecutive general election competition. New Hampshire's 1st Congressional District was a battleground district in 2016.

Trade adjustment assistance
Yea3.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. Guinta was one of 86 Republicans to vote in favor of TAA.[9][10]
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. Guinta was one of 191 Republicans to support the measure.[11][12]
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.). Guinta was one of 190 Republicans to vote in favor of the amendment.[13][14]


Trade adjustment assistance second vote
Yea3.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. Guinta was one of 111 Republicans to vote in favor of HR 1295.[15][16]

Issues

Campaign finance controversy

Guinta came under scrutiny in May 2015, following a settlement with the Federal Election Commission involving an illegal $355,000 loan from his parents. The settlement required Guinta to pay back the money in addition to a $15,000 fine from the FEC. State Republicans, including U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte have called for Guinta's resignation. Ayotte said, "This is a decision he needs to make, but if I were in his position, that's what I would do."[50]

Guinta apologized but refused to resign. He claimed that the money was his, and it had just been transferred to an account under his parents' names.[51]

In January 2016, Guinta announced that he had repaid the entire sum of the loan from his parents. He stated, once again, that he did not think he was at fault and that the money was his. Regarding the future, Guinta said, "It was important to start the year fresh, with all facets of the agreement complete. All of it is behind me, and I’m looking forward to not just a productive legislative year, but to a fun campaign as well."[52]

On March 30, 2016, Guinta said, "You know I've said that I'll support the nominee of the Republican party. We're going through a presidential primary process that I think is very unique because of the frustration that people have with the challenges that our nation has had economically and the leadership style that has been presented by this president. I very much respect the primary process, and I think we ought to let that process continue.”[66] He did not mention Donald Trump in his statement.

2014

The 1st Congressional District of New Hampshire held an election for the U.S. House of Representatives on November 4, 2014. Republican candidate Frank Guinta challenged and defeated Democratic incumbent Carol Shea-Porter in the general election.[67] While Shea-Porter ran uncontested in the Democratic primary on September 9, 2014, Guinta defeated three other candidates—Dan Innis, Everett Jabour and Brendan Kelly—for the Republican nomination.[68]

New Hampshire's 1st was considered a battleground district in 2014. Shea-Porter was first elected in 2006, but lost to Guinta in 2010 and regained her seat again in the 2012 election, where she defeated Guinta by a 3.8 percent margin of victory. The 1st District also voted Democratic in the 2012 presidential elections, but President Barack Obama won by only 1.6 percent. With 2014 being a third rematch between Shea-Porter and Guinta, this race was viewed as a toss-up.

Campaign themes

2016

The following issues were listed on Guinta's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“
  • Health Care: Health care premiums are skyrocketing, devastating the middle class here in the state and around the country. New Hampshire was promised we could keep our plan, and then 22,000 lost their health insurance. We were promised additional access to care; now we only have one insurer and almost half of our hospitals have been excluded from the Obamacare Exchange.
  • Jobs: Getting Granite Staters back to work has been and will remain a top priority of mine. In New Hampshire, our economy depends on the success of our small business owners and entrepreneurs. In order for them to be successful, the federal government needs to create an environment favorable to job creation.
  • Social Security: I do not support any proposal that reduces benefits for those at or near retirement. A promise made is a promise kept.
  • Debt and Deficit: Our national debt is now nearing $18 trillion, meaning every man, woman and child in the United States owes over $55,000 to the federal government. This mounting burden of debt drains our economy, crushes our job creators, hurts seniors and entrepreneurs while sticking our children and grandchildren with the bill.
  • Reforming Washington: It is no secret that Washington is broken. This dysfunction is stopping our elected officials from accomplishing anything of substance on our behalf.

[92]

”
—Frank Guinta's campaign website

2014

Guinta listed the following issues, among others, on his campaign website:[93]

“
  • Energy: "I strongly support an 'all of the above' approach for increasing domestic energy production, which would lower gas prices, reduce our nation’s dependence on hostile foreign countries and create American middle-class jobs. That means everything from safe development of oil (offshore and onshore), natural gas, clean coal and other fossil fuels to alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, hydropower, nuclear, geothermal, and biomass."
  • Education: "We must have an education system that prepares our children for the jobs of the future. To do that, we have to reduce the federal government’s role in education and return power to states, local officials, educators and most importantly, to parents."
  • Protecting Seniors: "I will continue working hard to ensure there will be no changes to Medicare or Social Security for those in or near retirement. But the nonpartisan trustees of Medicare say it is going to be broke in the next 10 years. We must make structural changes so future generations can receive the same safety net that currently protects their grandparents. Our seniors are part of the “Greatest Generation,” and I'm committed to preserving what they've earned."
  • Tax Code: "It’s time for an overhaul. I've fought for --and will continue fighting for-- a simpler, fairer and more competitive tax system. By lowering and consolidating rates (both individual and corporate), closing special-interest loopholes and broadening the base, we can get our economy moving in the right direction."
  • Veterans: "New Hampshire has one of the nation's highest per capita military veterans population. Ensuring they receive the benefits they have earned is a top priority. I have fought for a full service VA medical facility. I will continue that fight until we finally make sure Granite Staters who wore the uniform receive the highest medical care right here in New Hampshire."

[92]
