This site was created in November 2010 to hold the newly elected Republican members of Congress accountable. It will not be fully functional until 2011 when the 112th Congress is seated. While there are many sites that allow for valuable information, this one will serve as a clearinghouse for these specific members, and in hopefully an easy to use format. You'll be able to see their voting record and perform specific research on Open Congress. You'll find their earmarks and staff expenditures on Legistorm. You'll be able to see how they are rated at a site called On The Issues. All of the above are non-partisan sites I have used in the past to gain information about members of Congress. By linking the information from these quality sites, it will make the site fairly low maintenance (I have other irons in the fire, keep reading). While I'm an avowed conservative and slave to logical thinking, the site will not exhibit any bias for or against any member. It is meant to be a clearinghouse for those that wish to see how their newly-elected members are doing. Find your representative, click on the links, and make your own decision.

 

I was a registered Republican since the time of Ronald Reagan (you had to be a Republican to get a job as a Deputy Sheriff at the time) until after the 2008 elections, when I became disenchanted with the party and joined the Constitution Party. After my experience of the past year, I've determined the two-party system along with money in politics are ingrained too deeply in our culture and minds to be changed, so I have rejoined the Republican Party with the goal of returning it to it's successful Constitutional-based platform.

 

I'm a retired law enforcement officer that now lives in the Tallahassee, Florida area. I wanted nothing to do with politics upon retirement in 2006. Fortunately or unfortunately, the IRS tax code prevented that from taking place. In 2009, this led to a 59 day exercise in futility in attempting to contact my congressman, Allen Boyd. As Mr. Boyd would later say in January 2010 speaking about Cap & Trade, my behavior was influenced by the tax code. I began to look at our federal government, became involved in the FairTax organization, learned website operation, opened the website Retired Public Safety, then Liberty 2010, and joined some conservative groups in my area. This led to my volunteering for the Congressional campaign of independent candidate and now friend for life Paul McKain. I've also incorporated a group called Floridians Against REAL ID to educate citizens about our unconstitutional driver license law (which by the way came from Republicans in Congress when very few were looking). I've learned a lot during this time as to how the political process works or in some cases doesn't work.
