- Our 2019 Legislative Report Card. The 2019 Report Card examined how good bills die, most often not by a vote that is public, but rather by Committee Chairs who simply refuse to call bills for hearings, letting them die without a vote. The Report Card focused on a handful of Senators we called Democrats in Name Only, most all of whom were voted out of office in the primaries. The Report Card is an excellent tool for developing your understanding of how the legislature really works.
