That’s exactly what I intend to keep doing until my final day in office.” ILA CEO Ryan McGowan praised Senator Lummis’s record on fiscal and monetary policy: “The Institute for Legislative Analysis is proud to present Senator Cynthia Lummis with the Defender of Limited Government Award for a voting record closely aligned with the limited government principles of the U.S. Constitution. Senator Lummis has been a great friend of ILA and one of the Senate’s strongest voices for fiscal responsibility, financial freedom, and sound money. We especially appreciate her work to push back on Washington’s dangerous drift toward centralized financial control and to defend the principles of privacy, innovation, and honest money. As Senator Lummis prepares to leave the Senate, we know she will continue the fight for taxpayers, Wyoming families, and the constitutional limits that protect every American from an overreaching federal government. Her record reflects courage, conviction, and a deep commitment to leaving the country freer and stronger than she found it.” About the Institute for Legislative Analysis – The Institute for Legislative Analysis (ILA) evaluates and scores the voting records of members of Congress based on adherence to limited government and constitutional principles. ### Facebook X Instagram
