The American Association of University Women (AAUW) Action Fund released its annual Congressional Voting Record on Monday, providing insight into how members of Congress acted on issues that are important to women and their families. While Congress has been caught in a contentious ideological divide this past year, Senator Coons has remained an unwavering supporter of protecting the rights of women and their families and received a perfect score on AAUW’s Congressional Voting Record.
The scorecard, which covers the first session of the 112th Congress, outlines how U.S. senators and representatives voted and whether they co-sponsored legislation on priority issues affecting education, economic security, and civil rights. Chris is one of 18 senators who received a perfect 100 percent rating for the first half of the 112th Congress.
Since 1881, AAUW has been the nation’s leading voice promoting education and equity for women and girls. Both the AAUW and the AAUW Action Fund have a nationwide network of 100,000 members and donors, 1,000 branches, and 600 college and university partners.
