We
include legislation in three broad areas: 1) votes to authorize
and fund war, and to support its conduct; 2) votes for excessive
investment in preparations for war; and 3) votes for strengthening
global peace institutions.
The
PeaceMajority Report
focuses solely on issues of war and peace. We work with people across
the whole range of the political spectrum.
Therefore, our
scorecard ratings do not include legislation that focuses mainly
on social, economic, cultural, or other such political
issues.
We
realize that many progressives believe these issues are interdependent.
We also understand that many conservatives believe
there are other ways to address these issues, while sharing
a commitment to peace.
Our
goal is to form a new majority
for peace as the key to our security. It will take people of
many different political views to bring this about.
These
scorecards do not represent an endorsement of any political parties
or their candidates, and are offered for information purposes
only.
