LABOR VOTING
RECORD HOUSE 2008
123rd MAINE
LEGISLATURE
NOTE: The chart below
covers ten key votes of importance to working families in Maine cast by
Maine representatives at the 2008 "short session" of the Maine House. It gives the
name, party affiliation, home town and Legislative District of each of the
members of the Maine House. The names are arranged alphabetically.
An "R" indicates a "right" vote and a "W" indicates a "wrong" vote
from the standpoint of labor. The
number at the top of the column indicates the measure that was voted on.
The columns, to the far right, indicate the percentage of "right" votes
cast during the 2008 session. The percentage
is based on total votes actually cast. If the representative is
absent or excused there is an "X". The material "Labor Vote
Information" below provides a brief description of the measure vote on,
the Legislative Document (LD) number, the roll call number in the
House (HRC). If you want more information on the particular piece of
legislation click here

NAME CHANGES 2007-2008
During 2007 Rep.Abbie Holman died and was replaced by Rep. Dean
Jones who also died and late in the year was replaced by his wife Rep. Pat
Jones. Since the first two representatives each voted only twice on our
selected labor votes, they have not been included at all in the 2007 House
Labor Vote table. The votes of Pat Jones will show up in the 2008 House
Labor Vote table. There were four other deaths or resignations of
Representatives in 2007. Replacements were elected in November 2008. This
creates a difference of five names between the 2007 and 2008 House Labor
vote tables.
