  • 2011 – 2012 Scorecard
    2011-2012 LEGISLATIVE BIENNIUM VERMONT Environmental Scorecard KNOW THE SCORE he Vermont League of Conservation Voters is a T nonpartisan political organization working to turn your environmental values into state priorities. We seek to make environmental conservation a top priority for candidates, elected officials and voters HOW THE VOTES WERE SELECTED T his scorecard is based on the legislative priorities of the environmental and conservation organizations that form the Vermont Environmental Collaborative, as well as other environmental issues. Determining factors in the decision to list particular votes include whether the vote was substantive or procedural in nature, and which vote had the greatest effect on the outcome of the legislation. Please note the limitations of this report. Only roll call votes have been included, as voice votes are not recorded by name. A simple numeric score beside a legislator’s name cannot convey the depth of discussions about the issues, nor can it clearly indicate which legislators worked to protect the environment and which legislators worked to undermine environmental protections. This is particularly true when it comes to work done in the committee room. Nevertheless, the scorecard is a great resource to determine a legislator’s environmental commitment. HOW THE VOTES WERE SCORED T he scores were calculated by dividing the number of pro-environmental votes cast by the number of votes the legislator had the opportunity to cast on environmental issues. Absences were counted as a negative vote. !"#$%&'(&)*##$+'%#$,-.+#%)&"-/&" ######01&)#.+&#203"&#'4/#0456#10.&"#7+&4#.+&)&#-"#'#.-& ######+-"#%&)80),'49&#-"#40.#"90)&/:##;-(&7-"&*#"-49& ######<&%#=-55&,#>&7&..#%)&"-/&/#01&)#.+&#10.&#04 ######2:?@?#A.+&#B8)'9(-4CB#D'4E*#+&#7'"#40.#"90)&/#04 ######.+'.#10.&: HOW TO USE THIS SCORECARD VT LCV has prepared this legislative scorecard to highlight legislators’ voting records on environmental issues.
