2015 Legislative Scorecard
The 2015 Legislative Scorecard is now available.
Each year, United for Missouri selects bills that fall into the fiscal responsible, limited government mission of the organization. Bills are selected without regard to how any particular legislator voted. The bills scored have either been voted on by both chambers or by one or the other.
The bills are assigned weighted values. For example, HB116 and Medicaid Expansion votes carried the highest weighting. The Veto Override vote on HB116 will be scored and will carry up to half the total points available. It’s that important to Missouri’s economic future!
Absences are not counted against legislators on bills that were scored but the value of that bill’s score is subtracted from the total score available. No one with an absence on a scored bill can receive a 100% score as they did not vote on all bills.
Here are the bills scored, a brief description and the vote necessary to obtain the maximum score:
