Bacon voted for the Dreamer Amnesty bill in 2021.<ref>https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2021/roll091.xml</ref>
A strong opponent of Obamacare, Bacon voted for the American Health Care Act of 2017, which would have repealed significant portions of the ACA. He also voted for the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and opposed a $15 minimum wage bill. Staunchly pro-life, he voted in 2017 to ban abortions after 20 weeks and to defund Planned Parenthood.
Despite voting to preserve DACA <ref>https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2021/roll091.xml</ref>, Bacon also expressed support for the border wall and voted to uphold Trump's veto of legislation that would have overturned the emergency declaration that allowed construction of the border wall to begin.
He was one of thirty-five Republicans to vote for the Partisan Hack resolution calling for an Investigation on Capitol Hill.<ref>https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2021/roll154.xml</ref>
