    I have no votes in Congress to count for Enoch, and what Enoch has said and done settles only 1 of my principles. I went through it on October 31. A grade needs 4.

Vanessa Enoch, on the record

I have no votes in Congress to count for Enoch, so the grade above comes from this list: what Enoch has said and done on my principles. Each line has its source, and each is marked with the same test I use for votes.

  • March 2026 · Her campaign siteTyranny

    Wrote that the US is in a growing conflict with the Islamic Republic and that Congress must authorise sustained military action.

    “This is exactly why the Constitution requires debate and authorization from Congress before committing the country to sustained military action.”
    By the test I use for votes
    Not clear either way

    Asking for a congressional vote with no policy named does not settle this measure.

  • April 2026 · StatementFree markets

    Says she supports prescription drug price caps as a way to cut living costs.

    “On cost-of-living pressures, I support targeted measures such as prescription drug price caps, housing affordability incentives and increased competition in key markets to reduce consumer costs.”
    By the test I use for votes
    Against liberty

    Price caps are price controls, against liberty on free markets.
