North American Development Bank (NADBANK) that will finance infrastructure development and environmental improvement along the United States-Mexico border and finance community development in the United States and Mexico.

One hundred and seventy-four Republican congressmen--76 percent of the GOP House contingent --scored less than 47 percent for the same indexes, which included key votes on such measures as prescription drug benefits, job training, abortion at military facilities and funding for the
