Since these letters were sent, a combined total of more than 150 cosponsors have been added to these collective bills so voters can know what their Members of Congress are doing to protect our democracy.\r\n\r\nAccording to the Bilan de la d\u00e9mocratie 2020<\/em>, plus de 50 membres de la Chambre ont soutenu les r\u00e9formes d\u00e9mocratiques critiques \u00e0 100 % du temps, et 16 s\u00e9nateurs ont obtenu au moins 90 %, ce qui constitue des am\u00e9liorations significatives par rapport aux ann\u00e9es pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes Fiches d'\u00e9valuation de la d\u00e9mocratie<\/em>.\r\n\r\nSenator Mitt Romney (R-UT) was the highest scoring Republican on the Bilan de la d\u00e9mocratie 2020 <\/em>avec deux votes li\u00e9s \u00e0 la destitution du pr\u00e9sident Trump.
