Rep. Goodlatte Moves into Passing Territory

Just had a call from Rep. Bob Goodlatte's office--he does provide two of the items we asked about (bills he's sponsored or co-sponsored, and his statements from the Congressional Record (which aren't all in one place--here's one from the same page as the text of the first bill he sponsored this session). I've adjusted his score--Goodlatte now gets a passing grade of 40.

I think the more important headline is that it seems like some members of Congress are taking this seriously on the basis of our post and a story that Paul Singer wrote in Roll Call, which is certainly well-read by members and their staffs (sorry, it looks like the full text requires a subscription).
