In this Numbers Game, We’re Just Shy of One Million
Of course, all our trenchant analysis exploring whether Congressmembers have voted to expand and support the middle class cannot simply be boiled down to a few illusory statistics...
Nevertheless, we're happy to hear that 997,910 people have viewed our Google Adwords and about 15,000 people have clicked through our online Congressional Scorecard. And that's all in under a week. It's starkly clear that people are hungry to learn more about their politicians, and if DMI can match that need with policy content, then we're good to go.
And again, it's not that politics can be boiled down to a popularity contest...
But if you're wondering, the following twenty-nine congressmemebers are the ones garnering the most frequent Google searches. In the spirit of accountability, please feel free to click their names below and commit their middle-class voting records to memory. If we are looking to add a little more muster to the average American's ability to enter into or stay in the middle class, we'd better keep up with those in office.
