2024 Scorecard Votes

Our panel of experts scored members of Congress on key votes that impact people and the planet in the 2024 Scorecard.

The 2024 Scorecard at a Glance

House Republican leadership embraced chaos, and their polluter allies and most extreme members, all at the cost of our environment, health, and economic wellbeing.
In the House, we scored 12 votes to cut clean energy incentives, 16 votes to strip away protections for our environment, and five to undermine our democracy and racial justice.
Democratic Senate leadership kept a brisk judicial confirmation pace, approving over four years a total of 235 federal judges who added expertise and diversity to the bench.
