Bean Wins ACUF Award for Conservative Excellence

Share

Every year, the American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF) ranks members of Congress for their voting records, awarding those who score 85% or higher in upholding American conservative values. Representative Aaron Bean (R-FL) recently won the ACUF's Award for Conservative Excellence, scoring 95% from the Foundation and issuing a brief statement of gratitude.

"I promised Northeast Floridians that I would fight the Far Left every day with bold, conservative action, and I have kept my word. I will continue to empower hard-working Americans, to limit the size of the federal government, and to curb Washington's reckless spending," said Rep. Bean.

Among the key legislative actions that underscore Bean's commitment to conservative values are his support for the Lower Energy Costs Act, the Secure the Border Act, and the Parental Bill of Rights. He has also been vocal in his opposition to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) practices in the military, and to the participation of transgender athletes in women's sports.

Rep. Bean stands among fellow conservative stalwarts in ACUF'sACUF's rankings, such as Representatives Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Byron Donalds (R-FL), Kat Cammack (R-FL) Cory Mills (R-FL), Mike Waltz (R-FL), Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), and Greg Steube (R-FL), who scored a perfect 100% conservative voting record.

Other high-ranking members of Congress include several Texas delegates like Representative Beth Van Duyne (R-TX), Wesley Hunt (R-TX), Ronny Jackson (R-TX), Troy Nehls (R-TX), and Chip Roy (R-TX), who personally achieved a perfect 100% conservative voting record.

Arizona boasted two Representatives with 100% conservative voting records, Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Eli Crane (R-AZ). However, Representatives Andy Biggs (R-AZ) and David Schweikert (R-AZ) were also high-ranking members.
