Michigan Tea Party Scorecard - Release 2 - Jan thru Dec 2011
Created by rhamman        View: rhamman or all
The Tea Party Scorecard only includes votes on core tea party issues, primarily fiscal responsibility, limited government, and private sector job creation. Unanimous and party-line votes are largely excluded to highlight the differences between members of the same party rather than differences between the parties. "Messy" bills with complex, competing content were also excluded as no clear "correct" vote could be assigned. The Scorecard is administered by the Independent Tea Party Patriots in Clarkston. Questions or comments to scorecard@itpp.us This is release 2, covering all of 2011. Release 1 covers thru September of 2011, and is available at www.michiganvotes.org/VotingIndex.aspx?ID=678.
