Rep. Greg Steube receives 2021 club for growth defender of economic freedom award
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Greg Steube today announced he earned the 2021 Defender of Economic Freedom Award from Club for Growth, the largest free market advocacy organization in the United States.
“It’s an honor to receive the Club for Growth’s Defender of Economic Freedom Award. While Democrats try to substitute freedom for socialism and expand overreaching government regulations on Americans’ everyday lives, I remain committed to fighting for small-government policies that will clean up the Democrats’ mess in Washington and enhance our nation’s economic outlook,” said Rep. Steube.
The award is based on the Club for Growth Foundation’s 2021 Congressional Economic Scorecard, the gold-standard in measuring the voting behavior of Members of Congress based on issues relating to limited government and economic growth. Club for Growth’s Defender of Economic Freedom Award required Representatives and Senators to not only score 90% or better on votes cast in a year, but to also maintain a lifetime rating of at least 90% to receive the award.
“We congratulate Rep. Greg Steube for earning Club for Growth’s Defender of Economic Freedom Award for fighting for policies that advance limited government and prosperity,” said Club for Growth President David McIntosh. “Meanwhile Democrats have become more socialist than ever despite them claiming to be ‘moderate.’”
