- Investing in our kids and classrooms, so our students, teachers, and parents get the resources they need, so every child can be challenged, safe, and supported.
- Keeping our community safe and protecting our law enforcement and first responders by enacting gun violence prevention legislation, so they can do their jobs.
- Supporting our working families through lowering the cost of basic needs like housing, childcare, and healthcare--including prescription drugs, and keeping government out of a woman’s private healthcare decisions.

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
