===Financial bailouts=== After the September 2008 economic crisis, Graves voted against the [[proposed bailout of United States financial system]], claiming it "neither 'punished the wrongdoers nor adequately protected the innocent taxpayers, investors and retirees' caught in the Wall Street banking crisis."<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.stjoenews.net/news/2008/sep/30/graves-boyda-vote-against-700b-bailout-us-house/ | title=Graves, Boyda vote against $700B bailout in the U.S. House | publisher=[[The News-Press]] | date=September 30, 2008 | access-date=May 17, 2007 | url-status=usurped | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080930193359/http://www.stjoenews.net/news/2008/sep/30/graves-boyda-vote-against-700b-bailout-us-house/ | archive-date=September 30, 2008 }}</ref> In January 2014, Graves introduced the TRICARE Family Improvement Act.
