How do your congress people vote on key issues? Here is an easy score card to see. http://www.wnd.com/files/HouseVoteScoreCard.html Interesting. This info was gather from govtrack.us This is a good little reference. If you see info that is incorrect, please post it here. It looks pretty right on for my state. How does yours stack up?

My first thought was WND!! I guess you know what I think about them. I did look at the scorecard and I'm a bit confused. There are some Representatives with a big red "PROGRESSIVE" next to their names but then there are others who have voted the same way without the "scarlet letters". I'm not sure how to read that.

I do know what you think of them! Thats why I am asking for back up to the accuracy. The red flummoxed me as well. It didnt quite make sense to me, but I was looking more at the votes.

yeah, still not too sure of the red marks. Maybe they put those on well known progressives?

I looked at the votes too and my own Rep. voted as I'd have wanted him too but he doesn't have the red mark! Annie

Yup -- there's my Representative with "Progressive" next to her name like the proverbial Red Badge of Courage. That's my vote and my tax dollars at work.

New Mexico looks right. Harry Teague (D), District 2 NM, voted against health care reform and he's one that Pelosi, et al, are trying to change his vote.

Thank you for checking. I do want the information I seek to be true but that is not always the case!
