So who really is progressive in the House & Senate |
|
Interesting read...Yeah for Reed & Whitehouse, & well, Michael CRAPO, the name is befitting....
"Progressive Punch has produced a sorted list of Senate members on how progressive their voting records are. They also have a similar list for House members. If you are a liberal, people at the top of the list are good and people at the bottom are bad. If you are a conservative, people at the top are bad and people at the bottom are good. Excluding new members of Congress who haven't voted many times yet, the three most progressive members of the Senate are Sen. Jack Reed (D-RI), Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). The three least progressive (i.e., most conservative) senators are Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS), Sen. Michael Crapo (R-ID), and Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-TN). The three most progressive House members who have served a full term or more are Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-AZ), Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), and Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL). The three least progressive members of the House are Rep. Kenny Marchant (R-TX), Rep. Adrian Smith (R-NE), and Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN)".

1. I'm not sure progressive punch is 100% accurate. There's no way that Ben Nelson is more progressive |
|
than Olympia Snowe.
And Rodney Alexander, the most progressive Republican??? huh?
Marcy Kaptur -- intolerable?
This list is crapola...
