  • Senate Republicans: 45% Senate Democrats: 5% House Average: 34% House Republicans: 47% House Democrats: 6%
    Taxpayer’s Advisory Bulletin (TAB) FINAL 2011 FULL SESSION LEGISLATIVE REPORT The following report and legislative scorecard was prepared by Montana Conservatives, based on a survey of 149 recorded votes (71 Senate, 78 House) from the full 2011 legislative session, covering all major issue areas from a conservative, constitutional, limited government perspective. TAB measures the percentage of time each legislator supports the conservative position. In examining each bill, we begin by asking the fundamental question: does this legislation increase or decrease the presence of government in our lives? Votes for larger, more powerful, more intrusive and more expensive government are interpreted as “liberal” or leftist positions. Votes for smaller government, lower taxes, fewer regulations and more individual and economic freedom are interpreted as “conservative” positions. Other traditional conservative positions include government transparency, competitive free markets, states rights, firearms freedom, civil/constitutional liberties and educational choice. TAB has no ties to any particular industry or interest group, and uses bills that span a wide range of public policy, from taxing and spending to education, welfare, business regulation, government reform, subsidies and interventions, property rights and personal liberty. TAB’s use of an especially high number of votes ensures objectivity and accuracy. The following pages list the individual conservative voting percentages for all legislators, separated by house and by party. Rankings are divided into four categories: conservative, conservative-leaning, liberal-leaning and liberal. Freshmen are designated in italics. A new feature included in this report is a bar graph illustrating the distribution of Democrats and Republicans across the ideological spectrum, based on their TAB scores.
