2007 House and Senate Voting Records

              The 2007 House and Senate AFGE Voting Records are now available on-line.  The following links will take you to the Member’s Only section of the national AFGE website where you can obtain voting record information.  A ‘W’ means that a legislator voted WRONG on an issue.  An ‘R’ means that a legislator voted RIGHT.

PLEASE REMEMBER – Voting Records do not tell the whole story about an elected official.  Often a Representative is willing to help a Local solve problems that are in his (or her) Congressional District when he would never vote with AFGE on national issues.  So, do not rely solely on voting records to make your decision about whether to speak with your Congressperson.  Instead, make an appointment to go talk with him (or her) at their office!  And – if you cannot get a appointment with the Representative, ask for an appointment with an appropriate staff member. Staff members can be very effective for solving problems.
