Recent Senate Votes:
Balanced Budget Amendment
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=228&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Rejected (21-79)
The Senate rejected the Democratic balanced-budget amendment that would have taken Social Security off the books and prohibited Congress from cutting taxes for millionaires if the cut increased the deficit. A two-thirds majority is needed in both chambers to send constitutional amendments to the states for ratification. A bill that prohibits Congress from cuttting taxes on their most important constituents. Talk about a non-starter. David Scott would have voted for it.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted NO
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted NO
Balanced Budget Amendment
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=229&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Rejected (47-53)
The Senate rejected the Republican balanced-budget amendment proposal that would have required a two-thirds majority in both chambers to increase taxes and limited federal spending to 18 percent of the countrys economic output. The August debt limit law required both chambers to consider balanced-budget amendments before the end of the year. Seeing that Federal expenditures are currently running about 25% of GDP, a bill like this would force the Congressmen to be even more dishonest than usual. Not a reasonalble level, no matter how much I would have like to see it pass.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted YES
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted YES
Defense Authorization, FY2012
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=230&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Agreed to (86-13, 1 Not Voting)
The Senate cleared this $662 billion measure for the president that authorizes defense policies for the current fiscal year. The House passed the bill the previous day. Not voting, I though BO was in the White House, not sill in the Senate?
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted YES
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted YES
Reid-McConnell Amdt.; Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2011
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=232&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Agreed to (89-10, 1 Not Voting)
The Senate approved this amendment to H.R.3630 that replaces the House bill with the Senates compromise bill. The amended bill would extend by 2 months the Social Security payroll tax cut and benefits for the long-term unemployed. The deal also includes a provision directing the White House to expedite the decision on the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline. The bill subsequently passed by unanimous consent. It is unclear as of press time if the House will pass the Senate bill. A b-s kick the can down the road move. The lower house has already rejected, vote the damned thing up or down in a permanent way. Losers. Not to proud of the home boys here.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted YES
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted YES
Disaster Relief Appropriations Act, 2012
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=233&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Passed (72-27, 1 Not Voting)
The Senate cleared this bill to provide $8.6 billion in disaster relief and to combat Social Security fraud, sending it to the president for his signature. The House passed this bill the previous day. Typical, spend billions to attack a problem you don't want or have the heart to solve.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted NO
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted NO
Military Construction-VA Appropriations, FY2012
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=235&chamber=S&congress=1121
Vote Agreed to (67-32, 1 Not Voting)
The Senate gave final approval to the conference report for this $915 billion "megabus" spending bill that provides funds for the rest of the fiscal year for the remaining nine annual appropriations bills. The nine bills are the Military Construction-VA, Defense, Energy-Water, Financial Services, Homeland Security, Interior-Environment, Labor-HHS-Education, Legislative Branch and State-Foreign Operations appropriations bills. The House passed the bill the previous day. The president is expected to sign the bill. Spend whatever it takes to care for those who risk their lives for us.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss voted YES
Sen. Johnny Isakson voted YES
Recent House Votes:
Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2011
http://capwiz.com/congressorg/issues/votes/?votenum=923&chamber=H&congress=1121
Vote Passed (234-193, 6 Not Voting)
The House passed this Republican version of the payroll tax extension bill. The bill would extend the Social Security payroll tax cut for one year, prevent Medicare payments to doctors from being cut more than 27 percent, and overhaul the unemployment benefits program. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) called the bill "dead on arrival" in the Senate. Harry Reid is such a f-g jerk. He calls it out as DOA and then after the House rejects his conterproposal, blames the Tea Party Republicans for lack of cooperation. The two month extention is b-s, kill it or give it more than two breaths of life. Just make up your freaking mind Reid, the Republicans actually want to extend a longer lifetime on a benefit, jump on the damned bus.
Rep. David Scott voted NO idiot

Vote Passed (410-11, 12 Not Voting)
The House voted to strengthen sanctions against Iran that are intended to deny the regime resources to develop nuclear weapons. The Senate is unlikely to pass the bill. More b-s from an ineffectual government.
