Common Cause tracks Congressional votes on democracy-related legislation

Sep 08, 2022 1:37 pm

The Common Cause website is tracking Congress members votes on democracy-related legislation at the Democracy Scorecard. Democrat Rep. Paul Tonko, of the 20th Congressional District, gets the best score locally. Tonko voted for all 18 democracy-related legislation tracked here, and co-sponsored four of the bills. Rep. Elise Stefanik, a Republican from the 21st Congressional District, only voted for one of the 18 bills tracked, the Courthouse Ethics and Transparency Act. Democrat Rep. Sean Maloney, currently representing the 18th Congressional District, got a 16 out of 18 score, while there is no score for the 19th Congressional District after Democrat Antonio Delgado resigned and recently-elected fill-in Pat Ryan has yet to cast a vote. "Common Cause does not endorse or oppose candidates; we simply provide constituents the facts about how your delegation voted, so you and the people you share this nonpartisan tool can make an informed and comprehensive evaluation of your legislators’ performance," the website says. See the Democracy Scorecard for more information.
