The purpose of this scorecard is to inform our supporters and the general public of where their legislators stand on civil liberties issues. Legislators may promise many things before an election, but there is no substitute for an actual vote. The scorecard is in no way meant to be construed as an endorsement of legislators who score well or a statement of opposition against those who do not.

A note from public policy director Denise Maes
As we do after every legislative session, we prepared a legislative scorecard so you, our members, can see where each legislator stands on civil liberties issues.
But here was the problem this year: because best practices dictate that we score only those bills that were voted on by the entire legislature, the scorecard cannot possibly tell the whole story.
