Davis: Not That Tech-Friendly

House Government Reform Committee chairman Tom Davis, R-Va., is known for being friendly with the technology community in North Virginia. But a CNET News.com analysis puts Davis near the middle of the pack among members of Congress, while Sen. George Allen, R-Va., scored the highest of anyone on Capitol Hill. Based on a series of tech-related votes, Davis received a score of 55 percent on a ranking based on a series of tech-related votes. He lost points for votes “banning some computer generated-porn,” for investigating the computer game “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” and for seeing to prohibit Internet gambling. The highest-ranking House members in CNET's ratings are Reps. Ron Paul, R-Texas, with an 80 percent score, followed by California Democrats Zoe Lofgren and Ellen Tauscher.--Daniel Pulliam
