Retirement security was not a priority for the 2015 Congress, according to a new voting scorecard released by the Alliance for Retired Americans.

The group, a national organization that advocates for the "rights and well-being of … retirees and their families," released its scorecard at a Las Vegas meeting focusing on organizing and advocacy skills. It gave freshman Republican senators a failing grade, with nine out of 12 scoring zero for their votes on the 10 issues examined for the scorecard. The other three got a 10 percent ranking.

The report examined 10 Senate and House votes in 2015, showing the roll calls on issues that affect "current and future retirees," and found the results from the new members of Congress wanting. However, all members of Congress were ranked based on their votes, and not just for 2015; each also received a "lifetime" rating for votes affecting retirees.
