    FRC ACTION VOTE SCORECARD 114TH CONGRESS / First Session Available at FRCAction.org/scorecard U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate Dear Voter and Friend of the Family, FRC Action presents our Vote Scorecard for the First Session of the 114th Congress. This online Scorecard contains a compilation of significant votes on federal legislation affecting faith, family, and freedom that FRC Action either supported or opposed. These recorded votes span the 2015 calendar year and include the greatest number of pro-life votes in history, after the U.S. House increased its Republican membership and the U.S. Senate was returned to Republican control. The year began with a bipartisan effort in the House to prohibit federal funds from being used to pay for abortion coverage under Obamacare. Congress successfully fought to restrict FDA approval of some forms of embryo-destructive research. The House, once again, passed legislation that would prevent late abortions on 5 month old pain-capable unborn children, and although the Senate was unable to pass the bill due to the 60 vote threshold, for the first time, a majority of Senators voted in favor of the bill. The public release of videos revealing Planned Parenthood’s organ harvesting practices renewed efforts to defund this scandal-ridden organization and redirect funding towards community health centers. In an unprecedented victory, the House and Senate passed a budget reconciliation bill, the Restoring Ameri- cans’ Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act, which would have eliminated a significant portion of Planned Parenthood’s funding—roughly 80%— and repealed key provisions of Obamacare.

Kostelny, CEO of Preservation Virginia Elizabeth S. Kostelny: Governor Northam, Speaker Cox, Senator Norment, Sir David, and all of our distinguished guests, welcome to historic Jamestown. I'm Elizabeth Kostelny. I have the great honor to serve as Chief Executive Officer for Preservation Virginia. On behalf of Preservation Virginia's Board of Trustees and our Jamestown Rediscovering Foundation Board of Directors, I share our appreciation for friends and partners gathered today, and acknowledge the leadership of the administration, the general assembly, American Evolution and Jamestown/Yorktown Foundation. Our special appreciation to our partners in managing historic Jamestown: the National Park Service, tribal representatives, and members of the descendant and family societies. Today we commemorate the events that occurred on this site 400 years ago. The distinguished speakers who follow me will capture the importance of those proceedings and the direct influence still felt today. I will highlight this physical place and the persistent efforts of women who have ensured its preservation. The history embodies within these walls would have been lost if it not were the vision and dedication of women. In 1889, Mary Jeffery Galt and Cynthia Beverly Tucker Coleman founded the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities, now known as Preservation Virginia. Their goal was to save and restore disappearing landscapes and buildings that embodied our colonial traditions. Successfully securing Williamsburg's Powder Magazine and Mary Washington's Fredericksburg home, the women established an organization, the first in the nation, over 130 years ago, and has saved more than 500,000 Virginia historic places.
