If the candidate returned the questionnaire, it will reference their response to the question with either a yes or no.  If it is blank, they did not return our questionnaire.

This is a list of life bills tracked through Legislative Journals and how a legislator voted.  Some of the candidates running in the election may not have been in office at the time.  If a “yes” is indicated, the vote supports the legislation (and would align with IRTL’s position).  A “no” is a vote against the legislation for individual reasons, and “nv” means there is no vote recorded from the legislator on that particular bill.     

If it is a Federal level candidate, you may search voting records by going to Congress.gov | Library of Congress and searching key words, locating the bill, and then narrowing down your criteria to see how a candidate voted.  You can also identify key Federal legislation by using the National Right to Life web site: Key Legislation | Scorecards
