Cadman rose to become House Majority Whip during the 2003–2004 session. Cadman won re-election to four terms in the House, defeating a series of Democratic opponents (Steven Bell in 2000, Charley Johnson in 2002, Bill Martin in 2004, and Allison Hunter in 2006), each time claiming more than 65% of the vote. During his time in the majority, Cadman sponsored legislation on the subjects of immigration, eviction practices, and domestic violence laws.
