WASHINGTON, D.C. â The American Conservative Union Foundation, host of the Conservative Political Action Conference, released its 50th edition of congressional and state legislature scores, giving most local Hoosier lawmakers good scores on their voting records. The group is one of the leading conservative organizations in the nation, with its annual conference hosting former President Donald Trump in recent years as well as numerous leading voices in American right-wing politics. The organization tracks votes at both the federal and state level and scores lawmakers based on its view of conservative values. "To produce this yearâs scorecard, the ACUFâs Center for Legislative Accountability analyzed every vote taken last session and selected a wide-array of issues relating to fiscal, tax, regulatory, education, environment, Second Amendment rights, election security, life, and government integrity. All lawmakers in America at the federal and state levels are scored on a 100-point scale," the report card states.
