Score adjustments
Foreign-lobby money compromises America First. The U.S. has no formal mutual-defense treaty with Israel; AIPAC operates a super-PAC (United Democracy Project) that spent over $100M during the 2024 cycle on independent expenditures against U.S. candidates who criticize Israeli government policy. A candidate who has accepted that money has, in their own revealed preference, accepted a foreign-policy filter on their congressional vote. The same logic covers China-linked donations, where federal law also prohibits CCP members from contributing.
For every candidate with a documented donor record, two things happen: (1) the specific category question is marked False (foreign_policy_restraint[q4] for AIPAC + China; economic_stewardship[q5] — the WEF/ESG/Davos capture question — for Soros-network donors), so the per-category subscore drops by 2 points; (2) an additional dollar-bracket adjustment is applied to the total, making the penalty proportional to the magnitude of the funding. Both impacts are visible on this page.

A consistent pro-abortion-rights senator who voted for and cosponsored the Women's Health Protection Act (May 2022), which would have enshrined a federal right to abortion at any stage of pregnancy; co-introduced the Reproductive Freedom for Women Act (July 2024) to restore and protect abortion access after Dobbs; cosponsored and voted for the Right to IVF Act and the Right to Contraception Act; and stated 'I believe that a woman's health, not politicians in Washington, should drive important medical decisions' — rejecting any recognition of personhood or life protections from conception.

Warner voted YES on the Respect for Marriage Act (RFMA) in both the November 2022 (61-36) and December 2022 final-passage Senate votes, codifying federal recognition of same-sex and interracial marriages. He praised the signing as 'welcome news for the thousands of same-sex and interracial married couples across Virginia,' and subsequently urged the Virginia General Assembly to repeal the remaining ban on same-sex marriage in Virginia's state constitution — explicitly rejecting the one-man-one-woman definition the rubric endorses.

Warner and Kaine reintroduced the Equality Act in June 2023, federal legislation that would write sexual-orientation and gender-identity (SOGI) protections into civil-rights law across education, employment, housing, credit, and public accommodations nationwide — directly promoting LGBTQ ideology in schools and the public square, which the rubric opposes.

Co-sponsored the Equality Act (S.393) in the 117th Congress (2021) and co-led its reintroduction in the 118th Congress (2023) alongside Sen. Kaine — legislation whose Section 1107 explicitly stated that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 'shall not provide a claim concerning, or a defense to a claim under, a covered title,' stripping RFRA as any defense for religious organizations, faith-based employers, Christian schools, or religious businesses facing LGBTQ nondiscrimination suits. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and major evangelical bodies warned the Equality Act would expose religious institutions to federal discrimination liability for declining to affirm same-sex unions or transgender ideology. Warner's cosponsorship constitutes an explicit on-the-record commitment to enact the most direct legislative elimination of statutory religious liberty in modern American history.

As Senate Intelligence Committee chairman, issued a statement welcoming President Biden's March 2022 executive order directing federal agencies to study a U.S. central bank digital currency — endorsing the groundwork for the surveillance-capable government digital dollar the rubric opposes.

Co-sponsored and voted for cloture on S.1 (For the People Act, 117th Congress) — legislation that would have prohibited state voter-ID requirements for federal elections, mandated nationwide mass mail-in ballot access, required same-day and automatic voter registration, and stripped states of existing election integrity safeguards; the cloture vote failed 50-50 on June 22, 2021. Warner stated the bill's purpose was to stop 'restrictive and discriminatory voting laws.' He subsequently opposed the SAVE Act (H.R.22, 119th Congress, 2025) and the SAVE America Act (2026), both of which require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote, calling them 'voter suppression' measures that 'could disenfranchise millions' — opposing the citizenship-verification standard the rubric's election integrity framework requires.

Publicly urged passage of the 2024 bipartisan Senate border deal and called its failure a missed opportunity, praising a bill that provided humanitarian parole and legal-residency tracks rather than the mandatory-deportation framework the rubric demands.

Reintroduced the Assault Weapons Ban of 2025 with Senator Kaine, legislation that would prohibit the manufacture, sale, transfer, and import of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines — squarely opposing the rubric's defense of semi-automatic firearms and standard-capacity magazines.

As Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman, was the most prominent Senate champion of H.R.815, the $95.3 billion Ukraine/Israel/Taiwan aid package (signed April 24, 2024), calling his vote to advance it 'the most important vote in 14 years in this job' — directly contradicting the rubric's mandate to end open-ended foreign military entanglements and resist NATO-sphere expansion commitments.

Voted NO on S.J. Res. 29 (Senate 52-48, December 8, 2021), the Congressional Review Act resolution to overturn the Biden Administration's OSHA vaccine-or-testing mandate for private employers with 100+ employees — voting to keep the government pharmaceutical mandate in force against 84 million American workers, contrary to the rubric's anti-pharma-mandate standard.
