The Peace Action Education Fund released its new Congressional Voting Record analysis this week. Congressman Lacy Clay (D-MO) was the only member of Congress from Missouri to get a favorable mention.
"Never has it been as important for U.S. citizens to hold their representatives in Congress accountable on issues of war and peace as it has since George W. Bush launched his war against Iraq," said Executive Director Kevin Martin.
In this year's PAEF's voting record, 27 House members and no Senators earned a 100 percent rating. The Senate rating resulted from the 99-0 vote in favor of the $82 billion supplemental appropriation for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Six senators did however earn an honorable mention. Clay was one of the handful of House members to also get an honorable mention.
