The AFL-CIO has just published their Interim House Scorecard, a document which is a running record of votes that are of interest to the AFL-CIO but is not the official AFL-CIO 2005 voting record.
The vote descriptions are as follows, left to right:
CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS
JOB TRAINING REAUTHORIZATION
JOB SAFETY
JOB SAFETY/OSHA CUTS
PENSION PROTECTION/UNITED AIRLINES PENSIONS
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING RIGHTS/TRIBAL CASINOS
WAL-MART
AMTRK
CONTRACTING OUT FEDERAL AVIATION SERVICES
WORKPLACE SAFETY/ENFORCEMENT RULINGS
WORKPLACE SAFETY/FEES
HEALTHCARE
TRADE/CAFTA
LABOR HHS APPROPRIATIONS
BUDGET RECONCILIATION
TAX RECONCILIATION
the votes are scored this way:
R=the Representative voted for workers
W=the Representative voted against workers
Please note that Congressman Pete Visclosky has the distinction of having voted for workers on every issue and Congressman Chris Chocola has the distinction of having voted against workers on every issue.
