Do You Care About Stimulus Spending to Beat the Great Recession?
Then here is whom to vote for on November 4!
What is it?
- The 2009 stimulus bill focused on emergency bailouts of banks and automakers; now the issue is how to repay the trillions of dollars spent to avoid another Great Depression. Recent legislation includes:
- Supporters want to continue stimulus spending via bills like Project Rebuild , which makes billions of dollars available for re-developing foreclosed homes.
- Opponents want to end stimulus spending by capping the national debt, which is currently exceeds $17 trillion. The fight over raising the debt limit has become an annual exercise in Congress; the 2013 vote is listed below.
- Supporters focus this year on another form of stimulus, raising the minimum wage, which Pres. Obama proposed in the 2014 State of the Union speech should increase to $10.10 per hour.
How does it get passed?
It takes 218 Congresspersons to pass stimulus bills in the House of Representatives. It takes 50 Senators in the Senate.
What's happened so far?
The last major House Resolution, the Ryan Budget for 2014, passed the House with 221 votes. This budget, written by Budget Commitee Chair Rep. Paul Ryan, represents opposing economic stimulus. The Ryan Budget proposes spending cuts, tax cuts, and a balanced budget by 2040. Supporters of stimulus spending would need 8 more House votes to reject the Ryan budget.
The last major Senate Resolution, Disapproval of Suspending the Debt Limit, would have capped the debt limit (which stands at $17.6 trillion in 2014); it was rejected in the Senate with 45 votes. Opponents need only 6 more Senate votes to pass.
What will the candidates running in my area on November 4 do?
You'll see below the names of everyone running, for whom we can predict their vote on this issue. They are organized alphabetically by State in one of the two lists below!
The PRO list are those running in 2014 who have supported maintaining economic stimulus.
The CON list are those running in 2014 who have opposed maintaining economic stimulus.
An interpretation key appears at the bottom.

How to interpret this page
- The list above includes candidates for Senate and House seats in 2014.
- All of the above ratings are based on multiple sources of information.
- The sources of information include legislative votes; bill sponsorships; group ratings; campaign websites; campaign debates; and biographical books.
- Each information source is rated as supporting the topic, or opposing the topic.
- The number of opposing sources is subtracted from the number of supporting sources; if the net sum is positive, the candidate counts as "Pro"; if negative, the candidate counts as "Con."
- Click on the candidate's name to see the list of information sources, and whether we rate is as supporting or opposing.
- Click on the date of each information source to see a full excerpt and context.
Key for Pro votes:
- An aboslute YES vote: 5 or more net supporting information sources, indicating consistent and long-standing support
- A solid YES vote: 3 or 4 net supporting information sources, indicating substantive support
- A likely YES vote: 1 or 2 net supporting information sources, indicating some support but not enough for certitude.
- If a candidate has a net zero supporting information sources (or no information sources), that candidate is not listed above at all.
Key for Con votes:
- An absolute NO vote: 5 or more net opposinginformation sources, indicating consistent and long-standing opposition
- A solid NO vote: 3 or 4 net opposing information sources, indicating substantive opposition
- A likely NO vote: 1 or 2 net opposing information sources, indicating some opposition but not enough for certitude.
- The above list is not fully inclusive; many House challengers are not included, but all House incumbents are eligibla.
- All major-party Senate candidates (and incumbents) are eligible; and most Senate challengers are, too.
- Some of the candidates listed above lost in the primary, but are still listed.
