CPAC and ACU Release New Tool to Pressure Lawmakers to Vote More Conservatively CPAC and ACU Release New Tool to Pressure Lawmakers to Vote More Conservatively Alexandria, VA – The American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF), host of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), has just released the 50th Edition of its annual Ratings of Congress . In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the scorecard, ACUF has released a comprehensive new platform to help better hold lawmakers accountable to conservative principles. The system breaks down voting records and will be used to help determine speaking invitations to the annual CPAC conference . The system demonstrates which lawmakers vote more conservatively than others, and even allows users to compare Members of Congress with state lawmakers. For example, Liz Cheney (74% rating) scores more liberally across 186 policy areas than her challengers, Wyoming state lawmakers Anthony Bouchard (90% rating) and Chuck Gray (94% rating). Platform Highlights: • Search the historical voting records of 15,000 lawmakers in Congress and the states • Run head-to-head comparisons of lawmakers utilizing 1.4 million votes • View 14,500 bills in all 50 state legislatures and 50 years of Congress This year, CPAC and ACUF will present awards to 122 of the 535 Members of Congress. The awards are presented to lawmakers who score 80% or better and are used to help voters and activists identify who is best at upholding conservative principles and who to rally behind. To produce this year’s scorecard, the ACUF’s Center for Legislative Accountability analyzed every vote taken last session and selected a wide-array of issues relating to fiscal, tax, regulatory, education, environment, Second Amendment rights, election security, life, and government integrity. All lawmakers in America at both the federal and state levels are scored on a 100-point scale. CLICK HERE to view a PDF version of ACU Foundation’s Ratings of Congress.

CPAC Releases Mississippi Legislative Scorecard, Revealing a Disappointingly Predictable Lack of Fiscal Responsibility. CPAC Releases Mississippi Legislative Scorecard, Revealing a Disappointingly Predictable Lack of Fiscal Responsibility. ALEXANDRIA, VA (January 4, 2024) — CPAC Foundation’s latest analysis reveals that Mississippi continued its trend of passing financially irresponsible bills, garnering the legislature low scores consonant with its performance in previous years. The combination of this legislation and a relative lack of conservative bills earned Republicans an average of only 61%. SEE SCORECARD HERE “Mississippi’s legislature earned one of the lowest average ratings among Republican controlled states.” said CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp. “Despite having a sizeable majority over Democrats, Mississippian Republicans allow themselves to become steeped in cronyism while only addressing some of the major conservative issues of the day.” The bills featured in CPAC’s 2023 Ratings of Mississippi address government spending, parental rights in education, and Second Amendment freedoms. These issues, coupled with our mission to protect life, liberty, property and uphold the American family, created the basis by which the CPAC Foundation rated the Mississippi legislature. The Center for Legislative Accountability (CLA), an initiative of the CPAC Foundation, is the premier organization for holding lawmakers accountable. The CLA produces the longest-running conservative congressional scorecard and our state program is the only one in the nation that scores all 8,000 lawmakers in the 50 states across every policy area.

CPAC Releases Colorado Legislative Scorecard, Revealing the Passage of Incredibly Leftist Policies. CPAC Releases Colorado Legislative Scorecard, Revealing the Passage of Incredibly Leftist Policies. ALEXANDRIA, VA (February 27, 2024) — CPAC Foundation’s latest analysis reveals that Colorado’s Democrat majority legislature voted in lockstep during their previous session. Qualitatively, the bulk of their most partisan legislation read similarly to laws set forth in California and Oregon. SEE SCORECARD HERE “Democrats in Colorado have once again expressed their willingness to put radical gender ideology, an expansive government bureaucracy, and the climate religion above the interests of the people they serve,” said CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp. “As a result, Colorado has continued its spiral downward on our scorecard.” Several Colorado state legislators are recognized for their conservative voting records. The following members of the Colorado State Legislature earned CPAC’s Award for Conservative Excellence for voting with the conservative position at least 90% of the time during the 2023 session: Senate: Mark Baisley (96%) Kevin Van Winkle (96%) Rod Pelton (91%) House: Rod Bockenfeld (100%) Scott Bottoms (100%) Brandi Bradley (100%) Stephanie Luck (100%) Don Wilson (100%) Ty Winter (96%) Ryan Armagost (96%) Kenneth DeGraaf (96%) Gabe Evans (92%) Lisa Frizell (92%) Anthony Hartsook (92%) Richard Holtorf (92%) Additionally, many lawmakers in the Colorado State Legislature earned CPAC’s Award for Conservative Achievement for voting with the conservative position at least 80% of the time during the 2023 session. Their names are highlighted in gray on the scorecard. The bills featured in CPAC’s 2023 Ratings of Colorado address undermine property rights, diminish Second Amendment freedoms, and increase taxpayer-funded welfare programs. These issues, coupled with our mission to protect life, liberty, and property and upholding the American family, created the basis by which the CPAC Foundation rated the Colorado legislature. The Center for Legislative Accountability (CLA), an initiative of the CPAC Foundation, is the premier organization for holding lawmakers accountable.

Study of 150,000 Lawmaker Votes Exposes Republicans As Less Committed to Conservative Policy than Democrats Are to Liberal Policy Study of 150,000 Lawmaker Votes Exposes Republicans As Less Committed to Conservative Policy than Democrats Are to Liberal Policy 50 State Legislatures Ranked from Most to Least Conservative ALEXANDRIA, VA (September 7 , 2023) — A series of just-released analyses from CPAC Foundation’s Center for Legislative Accountability (CLA) reveals that Democrats are, by voting data, more committed to liberal legislation than Republicans are to conservative legislation. The comprehensive study examined all 7,400 state lawmakers from each of the 50 states, including over 150,000 individual votes across 2,000 different bills introduced in state legislatures. The members of the Republican caucuses in each of the state legislatures voted with the conservative position an average of 76.71% of the time. The members of the Democratic caucuses in each of the state legislatures voted with the liberal position an average of 87.40% of the time. This means that, on average, Democrat legislators supported liberal legislation 10.69% more of the time than Republican legislators supported conservative legislation, indicating a relative lack of commitment on the latter’s part to the ideology of much of their base. “Republicans run on conservative promises, but after they win more of them abandon the tough votes on key conservative policies when compared to Democrats whose first rule is to stick together,” said CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp. “Our analysis shows how moderate Republicans broke apart on key issues like parental choice in education, securing strong voter ID, or putting a stop to COVID mandates.” CPAC Foundation also found considerable mismatch between the conservatism of many states and their elected officials, presenting further evidence of this phenomenon. For example, five of the ten least conservative states held session in states that vote consistently conservatively. This comes in spite of the fact that the voting populations of these states broke widely for President Trump in the 2020 election and that the Republicans had sizeable majorities over the Democrats in their legislatures. The 50 State Legislatures Ranked from Most to Least Conservative 1. West Virginia (72%) 2. Oklahoma (70%) 3. Tennessee (70%) 4. Arkansas ** (69%) 5. Ohio (68%) 6. Kentucky (68%) 7. Alabama (67%) 8.

The state’s overall average score also increased by about nine percent, the likes of which is largely a result of the red wave Florida experienced in the 2022 election.
