Congressional Scorecard Debuts
|
Americans For Prosperity has released their scoring of how the 112th Congress votes. In this edition, they tallied the most critical votes of the 112th Congress: repealing President Obama's job-killing health care law, disapproving of EPA's overreach to regulate greenhouse gases, supporting Chairman Paul Ryan's budget, stopping "green" ethanol subsidies, and many others. Keep up with your Congressman at the AFP Scorecard. With so many anti-free market policies coming out of Washington, it is more important than ever to watch how our lawmakers are voting. You didn't send them to Congress to hike your taxes and restrict your economic freedom. Elected officials must be held accountable and now you can see their votes easier than ever.

How the 2012 Vote Went Down
|
 The Saginaw County Clerk's office has a comprehensive list of 2012 election results. If you want to see your precinct, or are curious about anywhere else in Saginaw County, go look over the numbers. You may discover something important that others have overlooked. And, if you're curious about other counties, the Michigan Secretary of State has those. |

Victims of Government
|
Congressional hearings often feature victims of some sort detailing their woes, trying to convince Congress to pass yet another law. Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisconsin) turns that idea on its head by offering stories of victims of the government itself. His new web page will give stories of laws and rules that have had real, negative impacts on individuals' lives. His first story is up at Victims of Government.
