Hi Friend,

Earlier this week, our national partner, LCV, released their 2024 Environmental Scorecard, and I wanted to make sure you saw it!

The Environmental Scorecard has been the primary yardstick for evaluating the environmental records of members of Congress since 1970 — trusted by the media, policymakers, and the public alike. 

You can download it by clicking here or visit scorecard.lcv.org. In addition to serving as a recap of last year’s Congress, the votes scored, especially in the House, provide a chilling preview of what to expect from the new anti-environmental, anti-democracy trifecta in Washington this year. 

The 2024 Scorecard shows that, for the second year in a row, MAGA Republicans in the House of Representatives embraced extremism and dysfunction. Their attempts at legislation and amendments on government funding would have been so harmful to states and communities that the party’s own leadership pulled them on more than one occasion — resulting in the least productive Congress in recent history.

The House Republican majority catered to Big Polluters and corporate interests with dozens of votes to cut clean energy incentives and remove protections for our environment and our communities. 

The 2024 Scorecard includes eight Senate votes, half of which were regarding confirmation of qualified, diverse judges and other nominees and half of which attacked environmental protections. It includes 33 House votes, 14 of which were on radical policy changes unrelated to funding levels amended to or buried within on government funding bills or the extreme underlying bills themselves, two of which sought to use or further weaponize the Congressional Review Act to block environmental safeguards, and the rest of which were aimed at undermining the programs and laws that advance a safe climate, environment, and democracy.

Check out LCV’s 2024 Environmental Scorecard here, and learn more about how your representatives and others across the country voted on critical issues.

Thank you, friend, for your support in holding members of Congress accountable to protect our environment and democracy. 

We couldn’t do this work without you!
