Does The NRA Like Your U.S. Senator?

Jeff Sessions (KKK-AL) finally gets an A+ on something

The NRA grades every Member of Congress based on how they vote and what bills they sponsor. And not every Republican gets an A, nor every Democrat an F. Here they are state-by-state for all 100 senators. The names in bold also have taken NRA blood-money:

It isn't a Senate race but on February 26, state Senator Toi Hutchinson will face off against NRA supporter Debbie Halvorson and over a dozen other candidates for the open House seat in IL-02. In the past the NRA has liked her and given her an A grade but that's not likely to happen again. She's a sponsor of the legislation in the state legislature to ban assault weapons and big magazines. Yake a look at the guest post she did for us last month. Halvorson, a self-described "conservative Democrat," refuses to support President Obama and Illinois Democrats trying to ban assault weapons.
