The majority of Texas’ representatives, starting with its Republican senators, fared poorly. Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz both received grades of zero out of 15 possible points on the scorecard, meaning that they took anti-democracy positions on every piece of legislation they could.Democratic Reps. Joaquin Castro, Henry Cuellar and Lloyd Doggett all took pro-democracy positions on a significant majority of the 18 bills on which House members were graded.
"In many states, officeholders are deciding on matters that present a choice between a fundamental belief in democracy or authoritarian rule; between you and me having power in our vote and voice, or others taking that away from us," Common Cause said in its latest scorecard.
