Liberty Index Overview
Created by the Republican Liberty Caucus of Arizona, the 2022
Liberty Index is a liberty-focused legislative scorecard for Arizona’s state
legislators. The Liberty Index scores legislators on 22 pivotal bills/votes
selected by the RLCAZ that either advance liberty or diminish liberty. Green
bills are pro-liberty bills supported by the RLCAZ. Red bills are anti-liberty
bills opposed by the RLCAZ.
A high score on this scorecard does not equate to an endorsement
from the RLCAZ. This scorecard simply evaluates the voting records of each
legislator. When the RLCAZ issues an endorsement, other factors are also
considered; such as their effectiveness at passing good legislation, how they
vote in committee, what bills they sponsor, what types of bills they hear or
don’t hear as a Committee Chair, their character/professionalism, etc.

annual Liberty Lobby Day (2/9/22)
Scoring Guide
A green number one indicates that the legislator voted with the
RLCAZ on that bill. A red number zero indicates the legislator voted against
the RLCAZ position on that bill. “NV” means the legislator was absent and
did not vote. “N/A” means the legislator was not in office at that time. Rep.
Salman and Sen. Mendez were not scored because they were absent for most
of the votes.
The Liberty Score is obtained by calculating the percentage that a
legislator votes in line with the RLCAZ. For example, the highest possible
Liberty Score is 100. This is achieved if a legislator voted with the RLCAZ
100% of the time. After factoring in the bonus points, it is possible for some
legislators to score above 100.
Every bill is scored equally, with one exception. HB2862 is weighted
so it is worth double the points of a normal bill. As the feed bill for the
budget, HB2682 appropriated most of the $18 billion budget, enacting a
massive $5 billion spending increase. Due to the sheer size of the budget,
HB2862 was arguably the biggest vote of the session. This is why we
weighted HB2862 heavier than other bills.
Bonus/Penalty Points
A handful of significant bills introduced during the 2022 session did
not get a floor vote. The RLCAZ selected five bills in this category to issue
bonus or penalty points. For the good bills that did not get a floor vote,
legislators were awarded two bonus points for cosponsoring the bill, or for
voting for it in committee. Legislators who voted against a good bill in
committee were penalized by two points. For the bad bills that did not get a
floor vote, legislators were penalized two points if they cosponsored the bill,
or voted for it in committee. Additionally, if a legislator voted against a bad
bill in committee, they received two bonus points. This serves as a
reward/incentive for legislators to act accordingly in future sessions, while
keeping them accountable for key votes in committee hearings.
If a bill supported by the RLCAZ was held in committee or held from
the floor, after passing out of the opposite chamber, the legislator who killed
the bill was penalized by two points. This occurred with two bills: HB2414
was held from the floor by the Senate President and HB2540 was held by the
Senate Judiciary Chair.

Increases the aggregate expenditure limit for K-12 funding, allowing for a massive $1.1 billion spending increase. Additionally, HCR2039 violated the proper legislative
