Senate Property Rights CHAMPIONS !

The League of Private Property Voters (LPPV) is publishing soon it's complete annual Vote Index of the United States Senate and House of Representatives. The LPPV Vote Index has "scored" Congress every year since 1989. It is a very valuable guide to what your elected officials in Washington, DC have been up to, and whether they have been voting for private property rights and access to federal lands, or for the left-wing preservationist big government agenda. A CHAMPION of Property Rights is a legislator who voted with LPPV over 75% of the time. The complete guide with all scores will be available soon. For the year 2001, the 107th Congress, First Session, 43 United States Senators were named CHAMPIONS. Forty-two were Republicans, one was a Democrat - Senator John Breaux of Louisiana. Senator Santorum of PA was listed as a Champion. The votes that were "scored" for 2001 include voting for confirmation of key Bush Administration nominees, supporting oil and gas exploration, water for the Klamath Basin and repeal of the inheritance tax or "Death Tax," opposing grant money for environmental outfits and opposing requiring grassroots organizations to register with the government and restrict their speech.

ACTION ITEM: The Senate is out of session this week, and most Senators will be in their home states having meetings with constituents. Your representatives in Washington, DC should be thanked when they vote the right way, so make an effort to THANK the 43 Senators if you live in their home state.
