INTRODUCTION The Center for Security Policy is pleased to release its twelfth National Security Scorecard since its first in 1994. As with previous iterations, it is designed to illuminate the voting record of members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives on important defense and foreign policy issues. Toward that end, this edition of the National Security Scorecard conforms to the approach taken in previous versions. We have selected Congressional votes on the basis of their significance to the vital security policy interests of the United States. We have, moreover, selected votes that offer real insights into the attitude of the legislators casting them concerning critical national security issues of the day. Such considerations prompt us generally to exclude near-unanimous votes, non-controversial or hortatory resolutions, or votes on final passage of each chambers’ annual defense spending bills or their conference reports. It is important to note that while the scorecard is a critical tool for analyzing a legislator’s national security record, it is not the only measure of that record. By definition, scorecards look only at issues that were brought to a vote – they do not capture statements or other forms of discussion and debate, on and off Capitol Hill, that also contribute to the totality of a legislator’s views. In producing this year’s National Security Scorecard, the Center for Security Policy hopes to assist the American people in understanding the performance of their elected officials with respect to vital national security issues—and to encourage greater accountability on the part of Senators and Members of Congress for their votes in this portfolio. Scores are bases upon the legislator's aggregate record on these important votes. If, for example, a Senator was absent for two of the examined votes, but cast his or her remaining votes in a pro-national security way, he or she would receive a total score of 100%. The same applies for votes taken before a Senator assumed office in mid-term; votes for the session from before he or she started serving do not count towards the total votes cast. An online version of this 2015-2016 Congressional Scorecard is available at: http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2016/10/11/2015-2016-congressional-national-security-scorecard/

INTRODUCTION
The Center for Security Policy is pleased to release its twelfth National Security Scorecard since its first in 1994. As with
previous iterations, it is designed to illuminate the voting record of members of the United States Senate and House of
Representatives on important defense and foreign policy issues.
Toward that end, this edition of the National Security Scorecard conforms to the approach taken in previous versions.
We have selected Congressional votes on the basis of their significance to the vital security policy interests of the United
States. We have, moreover, selected votes that offer real insights into the attitude of the legislators casting them
concerning critical national security issues of the day.
Such considerations prompt us generally to exclude near-unanimous votes, non-controversial or hortatory resolutions,
or votes on final passage of each chambers’ annual defense spending bills or their conference reports.
It is important to note that while the scorecard is a critical tool for analyzing a legislator’s national security record, it is
not the only measure of that record. By definition, scorecards look only at issues that were brought to a vote – they do
not capture statements or other forms of discussion and debate, on and off Capitol Hill, that also contribute to the
totality of a legislator’s views.
In producing this year’s National Security Scorecard, the Center for Security Policy hopes to assist the American people
in understanding the performance of their elected officials with respect to vital national security issues—and to
encourage greater accountability on the part of Senators and Members of Congress for their votes in this portfolio.
Scores are bases upon the legislator's aggregate record on these important votes. If, for example, a Senator was absent
for two of the examined votes, but cast his or her remaining votes in a pro-national security way, he or she would
receive a total score of 100%. The same applies for votes taken before a Senator assumed office in mid-term; votes for
the session from before he or she started serving do not count towards the total votes cast.
An online version of this 2015-2016 Congressional Scorecard is available at:

pipeline. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 270-152, 10 not voting (Roll Call Vote #75, Feb. 11, 2015)
2. Maintain restrictions on transfer of detainees out of Guantanamo Bay. The Walorski amendment (R-IN) to the

The amendment also placed further restrictions on the transfer of Gitmo detainees to Yemen. Pro-national
security vote: YES; Passed 243-180, 9 not voting (Roll Call Vote #230, May 14, 2015)
3. Allow funding for transfer of Guantanamo detainees to the United States. The Smith amendment (D-WA) to
the FY 2016 NDAA would have allowed funding for the construction/modification of domestic facilities to
receive transferred Gitmo detainees for detention, but would not have allowed the release of detainees onto
U.S. soil. The amendment also would have prohibited funding for Gitmo operations beyond Dec. 31, 2017. Pro-
national security vote: NO; Failed 174-249, 9 not voting (Roll Call Vote #231, May 14, 2015)
4. Limit funding for implementation of New START treaty. The Lamborn amendment (R-CO) to the NDAA limited

that Russia no longer illegally occupies the Ukraine, and is no longer taking actions inconsistent with the
Intermediate Range Nuclear Forces (INF) treaty. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 235-182, 15 not voting
(Roll Call Vote #234, May 15, 2015)

6. Allow exports to Cuban military/intelligence services. The Farr amendment (C-CA) to the FY 2016 Commerce-
Justice-Science (CJS) Appropriations bill would have struck language prohibiting the facilitation, permitting,
licensing, or promotion of exports to the Cuban military/intelligence services, officers serving in either, or
immediate family members of such individuals. Pro-national security vote: NO; Failed 153-273, 6 not voting
(Roll Call Vote #277, June 3, 2015)
7. Allow use of funds to transfer Guantanamo detainees to country of origin or third country. The Nadler
amendment (D-NY) would have struck the section of the FY Defense Appropriations bill that prohibits the use of
defense appropriations funds to enable the transfer of a Guantanamo detainee to his country of origin or to
another foreign country. Pro-national security vote: NO; Failed 181-251, 1 not voting (Roll Call Vote #338, June
10, 2015)
8. Declaration that President Obama was not in compliance with the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of
2015. H. Res. 411, sponsored by Rep. Pompeo (R-KS), declared that President Obama was not in compliance
with Section 2 of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015 because the President’s transmittal of the
agreement to Congress did not contain two side deals and therefore did not constitute the agreement as
defined by the Act, and therefore the review period had not started under the terms of the Act. Pro-national
security vote: YES; Passed 245-186, 2 not voting (Roll Call Vote #492, Sept. 10, 2015)
9. Vote to approve Iran nuclear deal. H.R. 3461 voiced congressional approval for the Joint Comprehensive Plan
of Action (JCPOA), the Iran nuclear deal. Pro-national security vote: NO; Failed 269-162, 1 not voting (Roll Call
Vote #493, Sept. 11, 2015)
10. Prohibit the President from lifting sanctions on Iran. H.R. 3460, sponsored by Rep. Roskam (R-IL) prohibited the
President from lifting sanctions on Iran per the JCPOA until January 21, 2017, and prohibited the President from
removing an individual listed in Annex II of the JCPOA from the Department of Treasury’s list of specially
designated nationals prohibited from financial transactions with U.S. citizens. Pro-national security vote: YES;
Passed 247-186 (Roll Call Vote #494, Sept. 11, 2015)
11. Simplify process for extraction of strategic and critical minerals. The National Strategic and Critical Minerals
Production Act of 2015, sponsored by Rep. Amodei (R-NV), requires the Departments of Interior and Agriculture
to more efficiently develop domestic sources of minerals of strategic importance to the national security of the
United States. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 254-177, 3 note voting (Roll Call Vote #565, Oct. 22, 2015)
12. Require certification of Syrian and Iraqi refugees before admission to the United States. H.R. 4038, the
American Security Against Foreign Enemies Act of 2015, sponsored by Rep. McCaul (R-TX), requires that a
refugee from Syria or Iraq cannot be admitted to the United States unless the FBI certifies to the Department of
Homeland Security and the Director National Intelligences that the refugee is not a threat to the security of the
United States. Pro-national security vote (despite concerns that the certification requirement was not sufficient
to protect national security): YES; Passed 289-137, 8 not voting (Roll Call Vote #643, Nov. 19, 2015)
House Vote Descriptions, 2016
13. Narrow scope of Afghanistan mission. The Ellison amendment (D-MN) would have struck language from the FY
2017 NDAA expressing a sense of Congress that the president should provide the U.S. Commander in
Afghanistan the authority to unilaterally strike the Taliban and Haqaani Network, and should have more
resources to strike ISIS in Afghanistan. Pro-national security vote: NO; Failed 131-292, 1 present, 9 not voting
(Roll Call Vote #212, May 18, 2016)
14. Prohibit funds for housing illegal aliens at military bases. The Fleming amendment (R-LA) to the FY 2017
Military Construction Appropriations bill prevented military construction funds from being used to construct or
modify a facility on a military installation to create housing for unaccompanied illegal alien children. Pro-
national security vote: YES; Passed 219-202, 12 not voting (Roll Call Vote #222, May 19, 2016)
15. Prohibit funding to implement Department of Defense directive on climate change. The Buck amendment (R-
CO) prohibited defense appropriations funds from being used for the purpose of implementing DoD Directive
4715.21, which has the effect of prioritizing climate change over national security. Pro-national security vote:
YES; Passed 216-205, 13 not voting (Roll Call Vote #314, June 16, 2016)
16. Prohibit funding for surveying, assessing, or reviewing potential U.S. sites for Guantanamo detainees. The
Lamborn amendment (R-CO) prohibited defense appropriations funds from being used for the purpose of

planning. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 221-197, 16 not voting (Roll Call Vote #322, June 16, 2016)
18. Prohibit the federal government from purchasing heavy water from Iran. The No Heavy Water From Iran Act,

to purchase, or issue a license to purchase, heavy water – a material that plays a key role in the development of
nuclear weapons – from Iran. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 249-176, 8 not voting (Roll Call Vote #441,
July 13, 2016)
19. Impose sanctions on Iran. The Iran Accountability Act, sponsored by Rep. McCarthy (R-CA), imposes various
mandatory sanctions on Iran, including with respect to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Iran’s
ballistic missile program, among others. Pro-national security vote: YES; Passed 246-179, 8 not voting (Roll Call
Vote #467, July 14, 2016)

Scores are based upon the legislator’s aggregate record on these important votes. If, for example, a Member was absent for two of the examined votes, but cast his or her remaining votes in a pro‐national security way, he or she would receive a total score of 100%. The same applies for votes taken
before a Senator assumed office in mid‐term; votes for the session from before he or she started serving do not count towards the total votes cast
Senate Vote Descriptions, 2015
1. Climate Change Agreements Require Senate Ratification. The Blunt amendment (R-Missouri) expressed the
sense of the Senate that, among other things, any bilateral or international agreement involving greenhouse gas
emissions requires advice and consent of the Senate. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 46-51, 3 not
voting (required 3/5 majority vote for passage) (Vote #20, Jan. 22, 2015)
2. Override Obama Veto of Keystone XL Pipeline. President Obama vetoed S. 1, a bill to approve construction of
the Keystone XL Pipeline, on Feb. 25, 2015. A vote was taken in the Senate to override that veto, which would
have required a two-thirds vote in favor of override. Pro-national security vote: YES; Veto sustained 62-37, 1 not
voting. (Vote #68, March 4, 2015)
3. Substantially Increase Defense Spending. The Rubio amendment (R-Florida) would have increased defense
spending for fiscal year 2016 to $697 billion, closer to what the Department of Defense’s projected budgetary
needs for FY 2016, as projected in the Department’s FY 2012 budget. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected
32-68. (Vote #96, March 26, 2015)
4. Prevent U.S. Funds for U.N. Arms Trade Treaty Implementation. The Inhofe amendment (R-Oklahoma)

organizations created to support implementation, prior to ratification by the U.S. Senate. Pro-national security
vote: YES; Passed 59-41. (Vote #108, March 26, 2015)

April 28, 2015)
6. Require the President to certify Iran is not engaged in terrorism. The Barrasso amendment (R-WY) to the Iran
Nuclear Agreement Review Act would have required the President to certify that Iran was not engaged in

1 not voting (required 3/5 majority vote for passage) (Vote #168, April 29, 2015)

with the authority to provide weapons and training directly to the Kurdistan Regional Government and bypass
the government of Iraq in the process. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected, 54-45, 1 not voting (required
3/5 majority vote for passage) (Vote #210, June 16, 2015)
8. Vote to proceed with voting on resolution of disapproval of Iran deal. The vote was on whether to invoke
“cloture” on the filibuster of the McConnell amendment (R-KY), and therefore proceed to voting on the
amendment, which would have expressed Senate disapproval of the Iran nuclear deal and any lifting of
sanctions against Iran. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 42-56, 2 not voting (60 votes required for
successful motion to invoke cloture) (Vote # 267, September 17, 2015)
9. Vote to proceed to voting on denial of funds and other penalties for sanctuary cities, illegal entrants. The
vote was on whether to invoke “cloture” on the filibuster of S. 2146, a bill that would have denied federal funds

compliance with detainer requests, and would have increased criminal penalties for individuals who reenter the
United States after being denied admission or removed. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 54-45, 1 not
voting (60 votes required for successful motion to invoke cloture) (Vote #280, Oct. 20, 2015)
Senate Vote Descriptions, 2016

United States. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 55-43 (60 votes required for successful motion to
invoke cloture) (Vote #4, Jan. 20, 2016)
11. Vote to proceed with voting on bill to increase defense spending. The vote was on whether to invoke “cloture”

process. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 56-42, 2 not voting (60 votes required for successful motion
to invoke cloture) (Vote #96, June 9, 2016)
12. Vote to proceed with voting on bill to prevent suspected terrorists from purchasing firearms. The vote was on

Radical Islamists and Enhancing Law Enforcement Detection Act (SHIELD) Act, which would have 1) authorized
the Attorney General to delay and, upon showing of probable cause, block the sale of firearms to suspected
terrorists; 2) authorized the Attorney General to take the purchaser into custody upon showing of probable
cause; and 3) inform federal, state and local law enforcement of the purchasing situation so they could monitor
accordingly. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected 53-47 (60 votes required for successful motion to invoke
cloture) (Vote #105, June 20, 2016)

investigations, and would have made permanent the “lone wolf” provision of the Patriot Act for purposes of
tracking terror suspects not affiliated with overseas organizations. Pro-national security vote: YES; Rejected, 58-

Scores are based upon the legislator’s aggregate record on these important votes. If, for example, a Senator was absent for two of the examined votes, but cast his or her remaining votes in a pro‐national security way, he or she would receive a total score of 100%. The same applies for votes taken before a Senator assumed office in mid‐term; votes for the session from before he or she started serving do not count
towards the total votes cast
