Hi John,

Today, we released the Wisconsin congressional delegation’s scores for the League of Conservation Voters’ 2023 National Environmental Scorecard highlighting how some members chose to champion the environment and protect our democracy, while others failed to do so. Since 1970, LCV’s Scorecard [[link removed]] has been the primary yardstick for evaluating the environmental records of members of Congress. It is available for download in English and Spanish at scorecard.lcv.org.

The 2023 Scorecard [[link removed]] shows the stark contrast between pro-environmental members of Congress and extreme MAGA Republicans in Congress. This year, some in our state’s delegation like Sen. Tammy Baldwin, Rep. Mark Pocan , and Rep. Gwen Moore worked to fight back against attacks on our democracy and environmental protections unleashed by a chaotic MAGA Republican-led House that took hundreds of dangerous votes to cater to big polluters and the most extreme wing of their conference.

This was a dramatic change from 2022, when climate champions led both the House and Senate, passing the most significant climate and clean energy investments in American history. In 2023, some in our state’s delegation supported legislation that benefits people and the planet. But, unfortunately, many actively worked against it.

We should be proud to have leaders who stand up against big polluters and attacks on our environment. Despite the gridlock and chaos in Congress today, we know Sen. Tammy Baldwin, Rep. Mark Pocan, and Rep. Gwen Moore are working every day to protect our air and water, build a clean energy future, and protect our democracy.

Unfortunately, Sen. Ron Johnson, Rep. Derrick Van Orden, Rep. Bryan Steil, Rep. Scott Fitzgerald, Rep. Glenn Grothman, Rep. Tom Tiffany, and Rep. Mike Gallagher continue to use their votes to cater to big polluters and right-wing extremists. Here at home, we must hold those low scorers accountable for putting polluters over our communities and ensure Sen. Tammy Baldwin, Rep. Mark Pocan, and Rep. Gwen Moore continue to hold the line for us in Congress.

The full delegation’s scores for 2023 are:
Sen. Tammy Baldwin - 100 percent
Sen. Ron Johnson - 0 percent
Rep. Mark Pocan - 100 percent
Rep. Gwen Moore - 97 percent
Rep. Derrick Van Orden - 14 percent
Rep. Bryan Steil - 0 percent
Rep. Scott Fitzgerald - 0 percent
Rep. Glenn Grothman - 0 percent
Rep. Tom Tiffany - 0 percent
Rep. Mike Gallagher - 0 percent
