2020 CHAMPIONS AND DEFENDERS FOR CHILDREN

LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD 116TH CONGRESS – 2ND SESSION THE FIRST FOCUS CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDREN LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD

Our nation’s children face multiple challenges to their well-being stemming from years of a declining share of federal investments in their future, the COVID-19 global pandemic, the ensuing economic recession, and racial injustice that begins at birth.

Every aspect of the lives of children is being negatively impacted by these factors. The kids are NOT alright, and we must do better.

The growing needs and problems facing children demand attention, policy solutions, political will, and action that make children a priority. Unfortunately, kids are far too often an afterthought in Congress. The problem is that children don’t vote and don’t have Political Action Committees (PACs) that garner and demand attention.

As a result, children are facing a variety of problems that are impacted by federal policy, including:

» Declining Federal Investments in Children: The share of investments in children has declined from 8.02 percent in FY 2016 to 7.48 percent in FY 2020 of the federal budget – a decline of 9 percent. President Trump’s FY 2021 budget proposal would have eliminated or consolidated into block grants 59 children’s programs and imposed real cuts of $21 billion in spending on children. Consequently, the President’s budget proposal would have caused the share of funding for children to drop to just 7.31 percent. » Rising Uninsured Children: After two full decades of decline since the enactment of the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) in 1997, the children’s uninsured rate has grown for each of the last three years and is expected to show a continued negative trend when the government releases final numbers for 2020. » High Child Poverty: After a few years of improvement, the child poverty rate is expected to rise significantly in 2020 and that level already was more than 50 percent higher for children than for adults. The U.S. rate for child poverty ranks 38th among the 41 wealthiest countries in the world, according to a recent UNICEF report. A 2019 landmark report from the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine released estimates that child poverty costs the nation more than $1 trillion annually. » Rising Child Suicide Rates: The suicide rate nearly tripled for children aged 10-14 from 2007 to 2017 and increased 76 percent for people aged 15-19. Suicide is now the 2nd leading cause of death for children in both age groups. » Increasing Child Abuse and Neglect: After years of decline, there has been a 10 percent rise in the number of children placed in foster care largely due to increased levels of substance use, including but not limited to opioids. Furthermore, between FY 2013 and 2017, the fatality rate for children from abuse and neglect increased by 11 percent. » High Infant Mortality: The U.S. rate remains far higher than in comparable countries based on Gross National Product (GNP). According to the Peterson Center on Healthcare and Kaiser Family Foundation, the U.S. infant mortality rate is 71 percent higher than in comparable European nations. » High Rates of Food Insecurity: In 2017, 12.5 million children lived in food-insecure households, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Department’s report finds “food security to be statistically associated with various outcomes involving health, nutrition, and children’s development….” » Rising Child Homelessness: The number of identified and enrolled students reported as experiencing homelessness at some point during the school year to the U.S. Department of Education increased 10 percent, from 1.36 million students in school year 2016-2017 to over 1.5 million students in school year 2017-2018. » Endangering the Children of Immigrants: Federal policy should ensure that the “best interest of the child”, but federal agencies are separating migrant families, placing children in detention centers for lengthy periods, failing to provide basic health and safety protections for children, and compounding the trauma facing immigrant and migrant children.

Now, more than ever, children need policymakers to be their Champions and Defenders who are willing to focus on, support, raise their voices, and attach their name to legislation that would improve the lives of our nation’s children and to actively oppose legislation or regulatory and administrative actions that would harm kids.

Consequently, in an attempt to recognize and thank those lawmakers in the 116th Congress who actively worked to make children a greater priority in the halls of Congress, we are pleased to present our 2020 First Focus Campaign for Children (FFCC) Legislative Scorecard.

2 FIRST FOCUS CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDREN | 2020 CHAMPIONS AND DEFENDERS FOR CHILDREN THE 2020 CHAMPIONS AND DEFENDERS FOR CHILDREN This year’s 120 Champions and Defenders of Children include 40 senators and 80 representatives who have stepped forward to make “the best interests of children” a top priority in the Senate and House in 2019 and 2020. They have all taken affirmative steps to positively address the problems facing children.

What makes this group of 120 policymakers unique is that they have repeatedly used their legislative roles to raise, lift, and move to the forefront those issues that are important for America’s children. Champions consistently pursue policies and legislation that make children a priority across the full array of issue areas. Defenders more often than most consider and take action in support of the best interests of children in a number of votes and by sponsoring or cosponsoring of bills.

Others in Congress, who may just fall short in terms of points to qualify as a Champion or Defender, have also taken important votes or played a leadership role for children on some important aspects of policy for children that would either improve the lives of children or protect children from harm. We applaud these lawmakers for their work in those areas.

As Congress debates and sets the nation’s federal priorities on policy and budget matters, the Champions and Defenders cited in this report make children a “first focus” of their work in making public policy decisions. As advocates for children, we want to take this opportunity to spotlight the 2020 Champions and Defenders of Children and express our gratitude and appreciation to them for their strong support for children. METHODOLOGY Children rely on adults to ensure that their needs are addressed. Our Legislative Scorecard is intended to be a tool to hold our federal policymakers accountable for representing and addressing their needs. It honors those who use their voice to champion and defend the needs of children.

The FFCC Legislative Scorecard is based on a points system that has been innovative in since its creation in 2010. Since its inception, we have scored legislative votes in which children would be significantly or predominately impacted, which is typical of many other legislative scorecards. In addition, when legislators take public actions on votes or in adding their names as sponsors or cosponsors to key legislation (both positively or negatively) that impacts children, our Legislative Scorecard captures that information.

Points are awarded to lawmakers for sponsoring or cosponsoring legislation of importance to children or taking key votes in support of the “best interests of children.” Furthermore, points are taken away when Members of Congress sponsor or cosponsor bills or take votes that would be harmful to children.

Other scorecards often seek to “score” votes and legislation that may impact children, but legislator support or opposition may be unrelated to their support or opposition to the needs of children because kids are only a minor issue in the legislation. In contrast, the FFCC Scorecard measures positions on votes and legislation that are either specific to or that would disproportionately impact children. Thus, the FFCC Scorecard is the most child-focused national scorecard, as it more truly reflects the support or opposition to the “best interests of children” than other more general scorecards.

As the nation’s leading bipartisan voice for our nation’s children, First Focus Campaign for Children also highlights the most extensive array of issues that impact children in our scorecard.

» Key Votes: Accompanying our Legislative Scorecard is a “Key Votes” page on our website. FFCC recognizes that not all votes are equal. Therefore, we weigh major votes more heavily than minor votes. We also give members extra points if they show political courage to vote in the best interests of children despite an opposing position from a majority of their own party. For a list of 2019 and 2020 Key Votes for and against children, see page 7. » Key Bills: The FFCC Legislative Scorecard also recognizes that lawmakers often negotiate and make decisions on legislation well before House and Senate votes. Consequently, rather than just tracking votes on bills and amendments, the FFCC Legislative Scorecard includes a more in-depth analytical framework. Our Scorecard awards additional points to policymakers from our website’s “Bill Tracker” based on their sponsorship and co-sponsorship (original sponsors are awarded more points) of key legislation that helps children. We subtract points away from those lawmakers sponsoring or cosponsoring bills that harm children. For a list of 2019 and 2020 Key Bills, see page 11.

Finally, we also award points based on membership in congressional caucuses specific to children and actions (including major letters, floor speeches, hearings, etc.) policymakers engage in that would positively or negatively impact children.

Note: This is the first session of Congress that First Focus Campaign for Children has scored legislation regarding international children’s issues.

THE FIRST FOCUS CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDREN LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD

42 FIRST FOCUS CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDREN | 2020 CHAMPIONS AND DEFENDERS FOR CHILDREN ADDENDUM: TRENDS IN THE LIST

THE GENDER GAP PERSISTS ON CHILDREN’S ISSUES

Women in the last Congress were more than two-and-a-half times more likely than men to be Champions or Defenders of Children — with 43.3 percent of the women in Congress named either a Champion or a Defender. In fact, women made up 46 percent of our list this year, despite representing only 24 percent of Congress. There were 65 men among the Champions and Defenders, however, less than 7 percent of the men in Congress scored high enough to be named a Champion for Children.

THE REGIONAL DIVIDE ON CHILDREN

FFCC’s Legislative Scorecard identifies significant differences in support for our nation’s children by region:

» The Northeast leads all regions: The percentage of Champions or Defenders among House and Senate members from the Northeast (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, , New Jersey, , Maryland, and Delaware) rose to 42 percent at the close of the 116th Congress. » The West is a close second: The West region led all regions in the 2019 report but dropped to a close 2nd with 37 percent of Western (Alaska, Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Nevada) House and Senate members qualifying as Champions or Defenders. » The Midwest is well-represented: 24 percent of House and Senate members qualified as Champions or Defenders in the Midwest (Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, , Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Missouri). » The Southwest and Plains states lag behind: Among Southwestern (Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas) and Plains (Oklahoma, Kansas, , Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota) states, just 9 percent of House and Senate members qualify as Champions or Defenders. » The Southeast continues to largely fail kids: In the Southeast (Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Arkansas), a paltry 5 percent of House and Senate members were Champions or Defenders.
