Rep Fred Cox voting ratings for 2012

Note: In several rating systems, one or two votes out of 651 make a huge difference.

Several ratings were changed by my vote on 2012 SB 82. See this for more information:

Another bill that changed my ratings was my concern and vote against 2012 SB 208, which is a Multi-state Health Care Compact. See this for more information:
