About The Leadership Conference
The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights is a coalition charged by its diverse
membership of more than 240 national organizations to promote and protect the civil and
human rights of all persons in the United States. Through advocacy and outreach to targeted
constituencies, The Leadership Conference works toward the goal of a more open and just
society — an America as good as its ideals. Founded in 1950, The Leadership Conference
works to effect meaningful legislation, policies, and executive branch appointments and to
ensure the proper enforcement of civil rights laws to unite us as a nation true to its promise of
equal justice, equal opportunity, and mutual respect.
Reading The Leadership Conference Voting Record
The Leadership Conference Voting Record reflects the recorded votes taken by every senator
and representative on the legislative priorities of The Leadership Conference and its coalition
members. The Leadership Conference has taken a sample of bills and nominations considered
during the 118th Congress to create the Voting Record. These votes reflect how members of
Congress have aligned with The Leadership Conference’s priority areas in 2023.
Based on these votes, each member of Congress earns a percentage rating for support of The
Leadership Conference’s priorities. This rating does not indicate the full extent of a legislator’s
support for or opposition to The Leadership Conference’s positions and represents neither
endorsement nor condemnation of any member of Congress. The Voting Record is intended to
be a tool for public education and is designed to help readers understand the records of their
elected officials on key civil and human rights issues. For additional specifics, supplementary
charts detailing each vote and how each member voted are available upon request.
During the first session of the 118th Congress, 137 House members and 43 senators
supported our positions on more than 95 percent of the votes in The Leadership
Conference Voting Record.
Former members are marked with an asterisk (*). In some cases, a successor may have already
been seated, and are marked with a plus (+). In such cases, percentage ratings may be based
on as few as a single roll call vote. We have included these results, but readers should not
read too much into them.
Where a seated member missed a vote, or in the rare instances where a member voted
“present,” we have excluded it from our calculations.

Department at 202.466.3311.

Introduction
Throughout its first session, the 118
th
Congress
took the term “divided government” to new and
sometimes surreal heights. In the Senate, 48
Democrats and three Independents formed a
bare one-seat majority, which ended the 50-50
tie of the previous two years that routinely
stalled Senate action on bills and nominations,
and which often forced Vice President Kamala
Harris to travel to the Capitol to cast deciding
votes. Many legislative initiatives would remain
blocked by filibuster rules that required a
60-vote margin to proceed, but the Senate
found it slightly easier to move forward on
confirming judicial and executive nominations —
and, in rare instances where bipartisanship
existed, on advancing “must-pass” bills.
The House, on the other hand, immediately set
a different tone. Its first act, electing a speaker,
took four days and 15 votes, highlighting sharp
divisions in the Republican party’s new thin
majority. Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R. Calif.,
eventually prevailed to become Speaker of the
House, but his success was short-lived: In
October, after a small handful of members in his
own party called for his ouster, he became the
first Speaker of the House in our country’s
history to be forced out of the position. It would
take another three weeks and several more
failed votes before House Republicans agreed
to replace him with Rep. Mike Johnson, R. La.
For those three weeks, however, business in
the House came to a screeching halt.
Both Speaker McCarthy’s and Speaker
Johnson’s tenuous holds on power have
shown up in what the House accomplished in
the first session of the 118
th
Congress. Unlike
the flurry of major bills that moved through the
House in the 117
th
Congress under Speaker
Nancy Pelosi, D. Calif., the House in 2023
advanced a comparatively small number of
bills.
The razor-thin majorities in both chambers
have also shown up in The Leadership
Conference’s voting records for the first
session. Determining which votes to score has
been challenging. Readers will note that in the
Senate we included dozens of votes to
confirm judicial and executive nominees, but
we only scored three votes on legislation. All
three votes were on bills to overturn new
agency regulations and District of Columbia
laws — which, under the Congressional
Review Act, cannot be filibustered. We took
positions on many other bills that were
introduced in the Senate, but few came to the
floor. Faced with a 60-vote threshold to bring
up most legislation, with only a 51-vote
majority (at best), and with a finite amount of
time on the legislative calendar for debates,
the Senate leadership wisely opted to
prioritize the confirmation of the president’s
nominees.

There has been a tremendous upside to this
decision: The Senate has confirmed a record
number of highly qualified and diverse
nominees to our federal judiciary. And the
beneficial impact on our legal system,
including when it comes to the interpretation
of civil and human rights laws and principles,
will be felt for decades to come. The downside
has been that debates on important civil and
human rights legislative priorities were rarely
elevated on the national stage. Even when bills
affecting voting rights, education, worker
protections, and other priorities are ultimately
blocked by filibusters, the debates over them
are vital to educating the public and to laying
the groundwork for legislative progress in the
future.
In the House, we expected at the beginning of
the first session to see — and to score — far
more bills than we eventually included in this
Voting Record. We ultimately included only
nine votes. This was partly because the House
had such a thin majority, but it was also
because of deep ideological divisions within
the majority — and, frankly, because of a lack
of legislative seriousness among some
members. And as previously mentioned, for
most of October — which is usually a busy
month in any first session of Congress —
legislative activity of any sort ground to a
complete halt, and it was slow to resume even
once a new speaker was elected.
We were also faced with the challenge of the
timing of many votes. There were additional
votes not included here, often in the form of
amendments to bills, that if passed into law
would certainly have an impact on civil and
human rights. But we have strived to only
score votes if we have made our position
clear in advance, preferably through an explicit
statement to lawmakers that we intend to
include a specific vote, or at the very least
through a clear statement of our position on a
specific bill. But given the erratic and
unpredictable nature of the House in the first
session of the 118
th
Congress, providing this
advance notice has proven to be far more
difficult than it was in previous Congresses.
With the second session of the 118
th
Congress
under way, we do not anticipate drastic
changes in the legislative landscape. We
certainly expect that the Senate will continue
to prioritize the confirmation of federal judges.
There are some bipartisan negotiations under
way on issues that affect civil and human
rights, such as artificial intelligence. With an
even smaller majority than it had at the
beginning of the first session, and with a
presidential election later this year, the House
agenda may become even more erratic and
unpredictable than it has been. Our focus will
be on continuing to raise the profile of the
issues that matter most to the communities we
represent — even if they do not translate into
bills that reach the president’s desk this year.

H.J. Res. 26, the resolution disapproving the
action of the D.C. Council in approving the
Revised Criminal Code Act of 2022
H.J. Res. 26 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating the District of Columbia Council’s
enactment of the Revised Criminal Code Act of
2022.
Washingtonians are best situated to address
criminal justice policies in their own community
and deserve to determine these policies
without congressional interference. This code
revision aimed to reflect best practices in
sentencing and criminological evidence to
ensure justice and fairness in the District of
Columbia and to make the law easier to
administer for police officers, lawyers, and
judges. On February 9, 2023, the House
passed H.J. Res. 26 by a vote of 250-173
(House roll call vote no. 119). The president
signed the resolution into law on March 20,
2023. NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
H.R. 5, the Parents Bill of Rights Act of 2023
H.R. 5, the Parents Bill of Rights Act, would
require public schools to allow parents to
review certain materials and to be informed of
and grant consent for certain activities. It would
also establish requirements on local education
agencies (LEAs) as a condition of receiving
federal funds.
The Leadership Conference opposed H.R. 5
because, contrary to its name, it would harm
our most marginalized children, facilitate book
banning, erase our nation’s complicated and
difficult history, embolden a small group of
activists, and damage parent-teacher
relationships. On March 24, 2023, the House
passed H.R. 5 by a vote of 213-208 (House roll
call vote no. 161). NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL
RIGHTS VOTE.
H.J. Res. 42, the resolution disapproving of
the D.C. Council’s passage of the
Comprehensive Policing and Justice
Reform Amendment Act (CPJRAA) of 2022
H.J. Res. 42 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating the District of Columbia Council’s
enactment of the Comprehensive Policing
and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022.
This resolution is another in a long line of
attacks on democracy in the District of
Columbia. Washingtonians are best situated
to address police reform policies in their own
community and deserve to determine these
policies without congressional interference.
On April 19, 2023, the House passed H.J.
Res. 42 by a vote of 229-189 (House roll call
vote no. 188). On May 25, 2023, President
Biden vetoed the resolution. The House
subsequently failed to override the veto. NO
IS THE PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
H.R. 734, the Protection of Women and
Girls in Sport Act
H.R. 734, the Protection of Women and Girls
in Sports Act of 2023, prohibits federally
funded school athletic programs from
allowing individuals who were designated as
male at birth to participate in programs that
are for women or girls.
The Leadership Conference opposed H.R.
734 and rejected its attacks on transgender,
nonbinary, and intersex youth. Instead of
creating an equal playing field for women's
athletics, this bill would harm women and
girls and undermine civil rights for all
students. On April 20, 2023, the House
passed H.R. 734 by a vote of 219-203 (House
roll call vote no. 192). NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL
RIGHTS VOTE.
7
H.R. 2811, the Limit, Save, Grow Act
H.R. 2811, the Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023,
among other things, proposed harmful cuts to a
broad range of popular and important public
services, including SNAP (the Supplemental
Nutrition Assistance Program) and Medicaid —
programs that improve the health and well-being
of families and communities in our country. The
bill would expand SNAP's already harsh work
requirements and include new Medicaid work
requirements, which would cause
disproportionate harm to people and families of
color.
The Leadership Conference opposed H.R. 2811.
Work requirements in safety net programs do
not lead to a meaningful increase in
employment; rather, they impose unnecessary
bureaucratic burdens on low-income people and
would result in the loss of food assistance and
Medicaid for millions of poor families. On April
26, 2023, the House passed H.R. 2811 by a vote
of 217-215 (House roll call vote no. 199).
NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act
H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, would make
numerous changes to immigration law, including
new limits on asylum eligibility, increased
detention, and a requirement for employers to
use an electronic system to verify the
employment eligibility of new workers.
The Leadership Conference opposed H.R. 2
because it would effectively dismantle our
country’s asylum system, undermine our
economy, and cause immeasurable harm to
immigrant communities. Rather than advancing
moral and effective policy solutions, it would
promote a highly divisive agenda and amplify
anti-immigrant animus. On May 11, 2023, the
House passed H.R. 2 by a vote of 219-213
(House roll call vote no. 209). NO IS THE
PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
H.R. 2494, the POLICE Act
H.R. 2494, the Protect Our Law Enforcement
with Immigration Control and Enforcement Act
of 2023 (POLICE Act), would make assaulting a
law enforcement officer, firefighter, or other
first responder a deportable offense.
The Leadership Conference opposed H.R.
2494. Under existing immigration law, any
instance of assault that is punishable as a
felony is already subject to mandatory
deportation. This bill, however, would allow
deportation in minor instances of assault that
did not involve actual violence or even physical
contact. On May 17, 2023, the House passed
H.R. 2494 by a vote of 255-175 (House roll call
vote no. 225). NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS
VOTE.

H.R. 467, the HALT Fentanyl Act
H.R. 467, the Halt All Lethal Trafficking (HALT)
of Fentanyl Act, permanently schedules
fentanyl-related substances (FRS) on
schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act
and enshrines and expands mandatory
minimums for both foreign importation and
domestic distribution of FRS.
The classwide scheduling that this bill would
impose would exacerbate pretrial detention,
mass incarceration, and racial disparities in
the prison system, doubling down on a
fear-based, enforcement-first response to a
public health challenge. Classwide
scheduling and mandatory minimums merely
repeat the mistakes of the past by
exacerbating our incarceration problem and
disproportionately harming communities of
color. On May 25, 2023, the House passed
the HALT Fentanyl Act by a vote of 289-133
(House roll call vote no. 237). NO IS THE
PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
S.J. Res. 32, the resolution disapproving of
rulemaking on small business lending
under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act
S.J. Res. 32 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating a recent Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (CFPB) rule related to
small business lending. The rule implements
a 2010 law requiring lenders to compile and
submit data to the CFPB on applications for
credit by small businesses, including women-
and minority-owned small businesses.
The Leadership Conference opposed S.J.
Res. 32. The rule is vital to rooting out and
addressing known patterns of discrimination
and to ensuring proper enforcement of fair
lending laws. It also provides valuable
insights that can be used to address unmet
credit needs. And it is similar in many
respects to the reporting of demographic
data in mortgage lending, which has been
required for decades. On December 1, 2023,
the House passed S.J. Res. 32 by a vote of
221-202 (House roll call vote no. 690). On
December 19, 2023, President Biden vetoed
the resolution. The Senate subsequently
failed to override the veto. NO IS THE
PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.

with a cross-section of entrepreneurs, from all

Resolutions of disapproval
H.J. Res.26, the resolution disapproving
the action of the D.C. Council in approving
the Revised Criminal Code Act of 2022
H.J. Res. 26 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating the District of Columbia Council’s
enactment of the Revised Criminal Code Act
of 2022.
Washingtonians are best situated to address
criminal justice policies in their own
community and deserve to determine these
policies without congressional interference.
This code revision aimed to reflect best
practices in sentencing and criminological
evidence to ensure justice and fairness in the
District of Columbia and to make the law
easier to administer for police officers,
lawyers, and judges. On March 8, 2023, the
Senate passed the resolution by a vote of
81-14 (Senate roll call vote no. 49). The
president signed the resolution into law on
March 20, 2023. NO IS THE PRO-CIVIL
RIGHTS VOTE.
H.J. Res. 42, the resolution disapproving of
the D.C. Council’s passage of the
Comprehensive Policing and Justice
Reform Amendment Act (CPJRAA) of 2022
H.J. Res. 42 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating the District of Columbia Council’s
enactment of the Comprehensive Policing
and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022.
22
This resolution is another in a long line of
attacks on democracy in the District of
Columbia. Washingtonians are best situated
to address police reform policies in their own
community and deserve to determine these
policies without congressional interference.
On May 16, 2023, the Senate passed the
resolution by a vote of 56-43 (Senate roll call
vote no. 126). On May 25, 2023, President
Biden vetoed the resolution. The House
subsequently failed to override the veto. NO
IS THE PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
S.J. Res. 32, the resolution disapproving of
rulemaking on small business lending
under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act
S.J. Res. 32 was a resolution of disapproval,
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act,
invalidating a recent Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (CFPB) rule related to small
business lending. The rule implements a 2010
law requiring lenders to compile and submit
data to the CFPB on applications for credit by
small businesses, including women- and
minority-owned small businesses.
The Leadership Conference opposed S.J.
Res. 32. The rule is vital to rooting out and
addressing known patterns of discrimination
and to ensuring proper enforcement of fair
lending laws. It also provides valuable
insights that can be used to address unmet
credit needs. And it is similar in many
respects to the reporting of demographic
data in mortgage lending, which has been
required for decades. On October 18, 2023,
the Senate passed S.J. Res. 32 by a vote of
53-44 (Senate roll call vote no. 260). On
December 19, 2023, President Biden vetoed
the resolution. The Senate subsequently
failed to override the veto. NO IS THE
PRO-CIVIL RIGHTS VOTE.
