• Voted FOR the $700 billion
    bailout of the financial
    services industry (TARP)  
    (ACU-8).

  • Voted FOR bailing out the
    auto industry (ACU-8). Four months
    later, our president was firing CEOs.  
    Either Frelinghuysen favors
    nationalizing industry, or he's too short-
    sighted to deserve our trust. Either
    way, he's bad for the country.

  • Voted AGAINST protecting  
    the Bush/Reagan policy of
    withholding aid from for-
    eign agencies that perform
    abortions (ACU-6) Read what Kathryn
    Jean Lopez has to say about the vote:
           "This Mexico Policy is a Keeper."


  • Voted AGAINST with-
    holding tax-payer dollars
    from Planned Parenthood
    (ACU-6) Read what Kathryn Jean Lopez
    has to say about Planned Parenthood:
    "Planned".

  • Voted AGAINST easing
    McCain/Feingold
    restrictions on political
    speech in the weeks before
    an election (1 of only 10 in the
    GOP)  

  • Voted FOR Pelosi's "light-
    bulb ban" that, as the ACU
    explains, regulates "lights and
    appliances (including a ban on the
    incandescent light bulb), creating new
    programs for alternative energy
    sources, imposing more regulations on
    energy companies and mandating
    vastly increased use of ‘renewable’
    energy” (ACU 6).

  • Voted FOR Barney Frank’s
    Housing Trust Fund of 2007
    (ACU-5), which Speaker Pelosi boasted
    as “the largest expansion in federal
    housing programs in decades” (Pelosi 1)
    and which the Bush administration
    opposed as “a duplicate program”  
    that “would create an undue and
    counterproductive reliance on Fannie
    Mae and Freddie Mac” (Woolley & Gerhard
    1) .

  • Voted FOR the Democrat's
    2007 Energy Policy that
    mandated reliance on biofuels while
    not allowing oil supplies to increase.  
    The policy also stiffened regulations
    and raised taxes $2 billion (ACU-6).

  • Voted FOR applying McCain
    / Feingold to grassroots
    organizations (ACU-4)  NOTE:  
    Undoubtedly, in this instance, the
    dems were the good guys. This was
    GOP-sponsored and nearly ALL  
    republicans voted for it.  However, we
    at Remove the Rinos believe there is
    no excuse for voting against the 1st
    Amendment no matter how many
    republicans do so and no matter how
    reprehensible George Soros’ 527s
    are.  And if John McCain were to jump
    off a bridge…..??

  • Voted AGAINST a 2006 con-
    servative budget
    alternative that would have
    extended Bush’s tax cuts while
    trimming more than 300 billion dollars
    of discretionary spending, done away
    with close to 150 programs, and
    increased funds for the military and for
    veterans. It also would have opened
    ANWR for drilling (ACU-4) .


  • Voted AGAINST drilling in
    ANWR in 2005 (ACU 2).  

  • Voted AGAINST drilling in
    ANWR in 2006 (ACU-4) .  

  • Voted AGAINST off-shore
    drilling in 2006 (ACU-4)   

  • Voted AGAINST off-shore
    drilling in 2007 (ACU-6).

  • Voted AGAINST a 2008
    motion to allow drilling in
    ANWR, the Outer-
    Continental Shelf, and other
    territories in the West (ACU-8).  

  • Voted AGAINST lifting the
    ban on oil and gas
    production in the Gulf of
    Mexico.  Introduced in September
    08, this measure would have given
    states the power to choose whether to
    allow production off their own coasts
    (ACU-8).

  • Voted AGAINST banning
    taxpayer dollars from going
    to the U.N. to renovate, or build
    anew, their headquarters in the United
    States (ACU 4).

  • Voted AGAINST an
    amendment that would
    keep  government funds
    from being used to enforce
    trigger-lock regulations (ACU 4).
    Critics argue these regulations have
    little value in promoting gun safety and
    are primarily punitive in design, adding
    cost and red tape to gun ownership.  
    Still worse, these trigger locks would
    hamper, if not outright nullify, a gun-
    owner's ability to use the weapon in
    self-defense. This suggests another
    Machiavellian gun-control strategy: if
    you can't make a gun illegal, do the
    next best thing--make it useless.

  • Voted AGAINST a bill
    protecting property owners
    from eminent domain
    abuses.  The bill would guarantee
    access to the federal court so that
    citizens could sue to stop the
    government from taking their property.

  • Voted AGAINST an
    amendment to cut
    discretionary spending by
    2% while protecting the
    Bush tax cuts (ACU 2).

  • Voted FOR raising CAFE
    standards (ACU-2) For a look at the
    link between higher CAFE standards
    and increased traffic fatalities, as well
    as the folly of the economic
    justifications for higher standards, see
    what Dennis Kneale has to say: "New
    CAFE" (CNBC-1)   

  • Voted FOR funding the U.N.
    Population Fund (ACU 2).

  • Voted FOR raising  min-
    imum wage after the Dems
    rejected tax cuts that would
    have protected entry-level
    workers and small
    businesses (ACU-6) .  For insights
    into the harmful effects the measure,
    in its House form, would have meant to
    workers and small businesses,
    National Review Online consulted with
    four leading economists. All four
    economists agreed that only politicians
    stood to gain from the measure : "At
    Minimum…Should Republicans fight back against a
    minimum-wage increase?"   

  • Voted FOR spending an
    additional $100 million on
    Public Broadcasting (ACU 2).  

  • Voted AGAINST reforming
    the Endangered Species
    Act (ACU 2). to reimburse property
    owners for losses suffered from not
    being able to develop their land. It also
    clarified species designations, better
    protecting the species in need of
    protection and better targeting the
    properties in need of oversight (Marano
    and Lieberman).   

  • Voted AGAINST the Online
    Freedom of Speech bill,
    which would have prevented e-mail
    and blogs from being regulated by the
    Federal Election Commission (ACU-2). In
    essence, this bill's defeat leaves open
    the possibility that McCain/Feingold
    could reach its way dramatically into
    the Internet (Hayward).

  • Voted AGAINST the 2008
    Republican budget
    resolution that, according to the
    ACU, "would have made the Bush tax
    cuts permanent, capped discretionary
    spending at $973 billion, reduced
    mandatory spending by $12 billion
    over five years, and imposed a
    moratorium on pork barrel 'earmarks'
    (ACU-8).
