Before you vote
Democratic Party: 2 PolicyBombs on record
No full scorecard rows yet. Their documented positions are listed below, each with its source and that PolicyBomb's grade. They are not counted in a tally until the full row (author, votes, signer, funders) is sourced.
Grades rest on measured outcomes in each PolicyBomb, not on motives. Every line links to its receipt.
Positions on record
As recorded in each PolicyBomb's "who supports / who opposes" research. Not counted in the tally.
Policy #46: Do the Rich Pay Their Fair Share? Mixed
For: 2024 platform: make billionaires and corporations "pay their fair share", raise top rates on income over $400K. 2024 Democratic Party Platform (presidency.ucsb.edu)
Verdict: The claim that the rich pay little federal income tax is false on standard data. The claim that the wealthiest avoid tax on most of their economic gains is true.
Policy #54: Gun Control Mixed
For: 2024 platform calls for an assault weapons ban and universal background checks. 2024 Democratic Party Platform (presidency.ucsb.edu)
Verdict: Targeted access laws (licensing, waiting periods, child-access prevention, red-flag orders) are good policy on the evidence and fit the Bruen and Rahimi framework. Assault weapons bans use a lot of political capital for unproven gains.
