CONGRESSIONAL SCORECARDS

Each year Space PAC issues Key Vote Alerts urging Representatives and Senators to vote in favor of policies that strengthen our nation’s space economy and against legislation that would raise taxes, increase harmful regulations, and grow our already massive government. At the end of the year, Space PAC conducts a study of how members of Congress voted on key issues and ascribes a score.
