Thread: QUESTION: CAN WE HOLD LEGISLATORS ACCOUNTABLE?

How can we prevent voice votes on legislation affecting illegal immigration. If legislators know their vote cannot be traced by their constituents, they can (and do) vote the way that brings them personal gain, be it financial or power. Maybe if we can find a way to advertise who voted for what on a regular basis, more of the morons will vote the way their constituents want them to vote.

Hello napanic, welcome to ALIPAC.
If you do not know of them, WWW.NumbersUSA.com dose a good job at tracking the individual Congressman votes, as well as they have action alert faxes.

But don’t for get to come back to ALIPAC, we’re the best!

Many times you will see results of their vote tallies posted on these boards or you can Google them.

The website Americans for Better Immigration keeps a track of what they have been doing. All you have to do is do a Google search for the name of a congresional candidate + report card and one of the first choices will be a website with, "http://grades.betterimmigration.com", in it.

Here is what they show for Doctor Ron Paul.

I don't see any actual vote tallies but you can click around on the congressman or congresswoman's page and find out how and what they have voted on. The following link is an example.
