XBiz NewsCANOGA PARK, Calif. — Stepping up educational efforts in anticipation of upcoming elections Nov. 7, the Free Speech Coalition issued its first online Congressional Report Card. The report was compiled from numerous online sources and voting records.
The final grade utilizes a numeric rating system to calculate an average voting record, which is then converted to an alphabetic grade for the incumbent politician in each U.S. House and Senate race.
“Our goal is to inform FSC members how votes in Congress can affect their access to adult entertainment products, and to encourage them to vote their ‘erotic interests’ as well as their economic and security interests in this year’s critical midterm elections,” FSC Legislative Affairs Director Kat Sunlove said. “With the hostile attitude of this administration and this Congress toward our industry, we felt that our members and our consumers needed this data in order to cast an informed vote.”
If you’re pro-porn and you don’t vote, keep in mind that the members of groups such as Morality in Media do. Outside of the FSC the adult industry has few advocates. We can use all the help we can get.
