The Republican Liberty Caucus has published its 2023 liberty-focused scorecard for the U.S. Senate.

The Liberty Index scores Republican Senators on 20 pivotal bills/votes from 2023 that either advance liberty or diminish liberty. For information on the bills selected, see the bill explanations on pages three and four of the document.

The Liberty Score is obtained by calculating the percentage that a Senator votes in line with the RLC. For example, the highest possible Liberty Score is 100. This is achieved if a Senator voted with the RLC 100% of the time.

A high score on this scorecard does not equate to an automatic endorsement from the RLC. This scorecard simply evaluates the voting record of each Republican Senator during the 2023 calendar year.

The Top Defenders of Liberty demonstrated an unwavering commitment to the principles of individual liberty, limited government and free markets. This means they voted against wasteful spending, they stood up for our constitutional rights, they voted to repeal unneeded laws/regulations, and they supported a non-interventionist foreign policy that keeps American troops out of undeclared wars.

Senator Rand Paul was the only Senator who earned a perfect score of 100. Other top scorers were Mike Braun (95) and Mike Lee (90). J.D. Vance was the highest scoring freshman Senator (85).
