WASHINGTON, DC – Former employees of the American Conservative Union (CPAC) have launched a new policy organization - The Institute for Legislative Analysis (ILA) - which will construct legislative scorecards for the leading national advocacy organizations to educate voters ahead of 2024. The ILA will officially debut its advanced data and scorecard platform early next month at a private launch event held at the Conservative Partnership Institute. The event will bring together leaders from the top conservative and liberty-minded organizations along with nearly 100 members of congress who will be presented awards for their ratings of 80% and above on ILA’s Limited Government Index (LGI).

 

"The media has worked overtime in their attempt to fracture the Republican party and pit every candidate and group against each other. We created the ILA to better unite the conservative and liberty movement and ensure every American is equipped with the data needed to effectively hold their lawmakers accountable." said Ryan McGowan, ILA’s Chief Executive Officer.

 

The LGI is the most advanced congressional rating system, containing 38,655 votes, 122 in-depth policy analyses and more unique sampled roll calls from last session than the federal scorecards produced by over a dozen of the leading national advocacy groups – combined.

 

Each of ILA’s allied advocacy organizations will be provided 50 state scorecards built on the LGI platform, with the scorecards customized to each group’s specific policy priorities and stances. ILA’s President Fred McGrath added, "Not only do scorecards educate voters on the key policies, but the transparency they provide significantly impacts the votes and policy positions of lawmakers.”

 

The ILA team previously worked together for nearly a decade at the ACU where they expanded and perfected ACU’s congressional and state ratings program. Their work resulted in ACU becoming the first and only organization to ever produce a comprehensive scorecard covering all 8,000 federal and state lawmakers in America. The team will now serve the entire conservative and liberty movement by researching bills across hundreds of policy fields and further innovating the scorecard model to advance the principles of limited government.

No, the Republican Party led by Trump has done a great job of that on their own

“ Champion of Limited Government” means that I missed more Roll Call votes than anyone else in Congress. 

So like - I did not vote for most stuff. And the only two bills I introduced are the Biden impeachment thing ….and that one law making it illegal to do research on Congresspeople to see if they used to be escorts…”

If the award is for limited government, wouldn’t the metric just be who voted no to the most things?  Is not showing up the same to them as voting no, since it’s not a yes?  This relies on a presumption that most bills would somehow increase federal spending, regulation, or reach.

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert was escorted out of a Sunday night performance of the “Beetlejuice” musical in downtown Denver, accused by venue officials of vaping, singing, recording and “causing a disturbance” during the performance.

In an incident report shared with The Denver Post on Tuesday afternoon, officials with Denver Arts & Venues wrote that two patrons were asked to leave the city-owned Buell Theatre during the performance of the touring Broadway show. They previously were issued a warning during the intermission regarding behavior that prompted three complaints from other theatergoers, the report says.

The report does not name Boebert as one of the patrons or identify the other person. But her campaign office — while disputing the behavior alleged — confirmed that she was escorted from the Buell on Sunday night during the “Beetlejuice” show.

The incident report states that after receiving the intermission warning, about five minutes into the second act security officials received “another complaint about the patrons being loud and at the time (they) were recording.” Taking pictures or recording is not permitted at shows.

The report quotes one of the ushers: “They told me they would not leave. I told them that they need to leave the theater and if they do not, they will be trespassing. The patrons said they would not leave. I told them I would (be) going to get Denver Police. They said go get them.”

The Republican from Silt is running for a third time in 2024 to represent the 3rd Congressional District, which covers much of western and southern Colorado.

Drew Sexton, the campaign manager for Boebert, told The Post that the second-term congresswoman denied vaping during the show. She did use her cellphone to take a picture of the performance, unaware that photos weren’t allowed.

“I can confirm the stunning and salacious rumors: in her personal time, Congresswoman Lauren Boebert is indeed a supporter of the performing arts (gasp!) and, to the dismay of a select few, enthusiastically enjoyed a weekend performance of ‘Beetlejuice,’ ” Sexton wrote in a statement. He noted that The Post’s review of the show last week described it as “zany,” “outrageous,” and a ‘lusty riot.”

 

Quote

Boebert, he wrote, encourages everyone to see the play and its “fantastic cast, tremendous visuals and plenty of loud laughs” — but, he added, “with a gentle reminder to leave their phones outside of the venue.”

The report also said after the two patrons were escorted out and reached the building’s vestibule, they resisted leaving and said “stuff like ‘do you know who I am,’ ‘I am on the board’ (and) ‘I will be contacting the mayor.’ ”

Police arrived and stayed in the lobby of the Buell until Boebert and her companion left, according to the report.
