This summer, 2011, Rep. Gwen Moore and local democrats sponsored a rally that originally was billed as “Jobs Not War”. Here is a sampling of the military voting record of some of the congresspersons present and a few others.
Voting Record on No More War Spending
‘’‘2 points for each No More War Spending Votes on 5 war spending bills. Perfect Score 10.
‘’‘
Rep. Kucinich 10; Rep. Lee 8: Rep. Sensebrenner 8; Rep. Baldwin 6 Rep. Grijelva 4; Rep. Schakowsky 2; Representative Moore 1/2
Everyone is for more jobs but on a few vote No on More War Spending Records. Here are the No More War Spending Records for those Representatives that will rally tomorrow night and those that were going to be there. I also added for these five votes the records of Rep. Dennis Kuicinch who has a perfect record saying No to War Spending and our local Repubican representative Rep.Sensenbrenner
