Voting record

Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.

Pax Americana
Voted Sept. 8, 2023
No

“welcome back man! gotta oppose the national ID, you know how it is”

Broadlands Democrats
Voted Sept. 8, 2023
No

“We support transparency, but this bill also weakens fundamental freedoms and protections, making it impossible for us to support it.”

Forward Broadlands
Voted Sept. 7, 2023
No

“Forward Broadlands cannot support this bill as a whole. While we support reducing unnecessary bureaucracy and improving transparency in government, these proposals go far beyond sensible deregulation. Mandatory identity cards, weaker protections for children online, and the removal of existing multilingual rights are not reforms we can support. We believe government should be simpler and more accountable without sacrificing individual rights or essential protections. For these reasons, Forward Broadlands will vote No.”
