1. 1909: Ratify 16th Amendment (income tax) Yes 2. 1917: Ratify 18th Amendment (Prohibition) No 3. 1917: Declare war on Germany (WWI) That would depend entirely on the demographics of my district, wouldn't it? 4. 1920: Ratify Treaty of Versailles Yes 5. 1935: Social Secuirty Act Yes 6. 1940: Lend-lease Program Yes 7. 1941: Declare war on Germany/Japan (WWII) Yes 8. 1947: Taft-Hartly Act No 9. 1950: Delcare War on Korea Abstain 10. 1954: Censure Joe McCarthy Yes 11. 1964: Gulf of Tonkin Resolution Without hindsight, obviously yes.
