Report Card Now Available!
The Family Foundation Action today released the twelfth edition of its non-partisan General Assembly Report Card. The educational document informs citizens on key votes taken by the General Assembly during the 2012 and 2013 sessions.
You can see the new Report Card by clicking here.
It is our hope that the Report Card, along with Voter Guides that will be distributed in the fall, will motivate citizens to vote, and help them make informed choices when they go to the voting booth. All 100 members of the House of Delegates are up for reelection, as well as the offices of Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General. Potentially, depending on outcomes of the Republican convention and Democrat primary, some members of the General Assembly with scores on this Report Card could be on the ballot for statewide offices come November.
As with each Report Card distributed over the years, hundreds of votes taken by the legislature during the past two years were reviewed. The first page of the Report Card explains the criteria used in determining which votes to include. Non-partisan and broad-based, the Report Card seeks not to benefit one party or one candidate over another, but to arm voting Virginians with the information they need to make an informed choice when they go to the ballot box.
This year’s Report Card has thirteen “100 percenters” in the House and nine in the state Senate.
The Family Foundation Action distributed 100,000 copies of the last edition, not including those that were downloaded from the Action website. Our goal this year is to distribute more than 120,000.
To order additional copies of the Report Card to distribute in your church, community group and to like-minded friends and neighbors, click here or contact Roger Pogge at The Family Foundation Action at 804-343-0010 or at roger@tffaction.org. A suggested donation of $.25 per copy is encouraged to help defray costs of printing and distribution. Please also consider sponsoring the distribution of 100, 500 or even 1000 Report Cards with a donation of $25, $125 or $250. Checks should be written to "TFF Action" and sent to 919 E. Main Street, Suite 1110, Richmond, VA 23219 or you may pay by credit card here. Thank you for your support.
The mission of The Family Foundation Action is to protect families and promote responsible citizenship by giving Virginians the tools they need to hold their elected officials accountable. The Family Foundation Action is not a PAC and cannot endorse candidates.
