  • 2012 Utah Taxpayers Association Legislative Scorecard
    March 2012 2012 Utah Taxpayers Association Legislative Scorecard The Utah Taxpayers Association annually issues legislative report cards to its members and the public. The 2012 scorecard rates Utah’s 104 legislators on fourteen key taxpayer related bills. In the House, six bills supported by the Taxpayers Association received no dissenting votes, therefore the lowest possible score for a Utah Representative (unless there were absences) is 43%. In the Senate, six bills passed without a dissenting vote meaning the lowest possible Senate score (unless there were absences) is 50%. Senate Summary The average score in the Senate is 84%. Four senators received a perfect, 100% score: Michael Waddoups, Scott Jenkins, Steve Urquhart and Howard Stephenson, all Republicans. Ben McAdams (82%) and Gene Davis (80%) are the highest scoring Democrats. No senators scored below 50%. The lowest scoring Republicans are Kevin Van Tassell (67%), David Hinkins (70%), and Allen Christensen (75%). The lowest scoring Democrats are Luz Robles (64%), Ross Romero (67%) and Karen Morgan (67%). House Summary The average score in the House is 73%. Four representatives received a perfect, 100% score: Craig Frank, Brad Galvez, John Mathis, and Mike Morley, all Republicans. Mark Wheatley (62%) and Janice Fisher (58%) are the highest scoring Democrats. The lowest scoring Republicans are Mel Brown (50%) and Kay McIff (58%). As Chair of Executive Appropriations Mel Brown missed a number of unanimous votes which artificially lowers his score. The lowest scoring Democrats are David Litvack (45%), Brian King (50%) and Joel Briscoe (50%). Key An upper case “Y” or “N” in GREEN indicates a vote in support of the Taxpayers Association’s position.
