Onder, Jr. | O000177 | onder.house.gov | onder | https://onder.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 2, 2026 Contact: Brooke Morgan WASHINGTON, D.C. – This week, Representative Bob Onder (R-MO) issued the following statement after receiving the 2025 Club for Growth Defender of Economic Freedom Award. The award is based on the Club for Growth's Congressional Economic Scorecard, the gold standard for measuring Members of Congress' voting records on issues related to limited government and economic growth. This award required Representatives and Senators to score at least 90% on votes cast during the year, as well as maintain a lifetime rating of at least 90%. Representative Onder earned a 100%, meeting both the annual voting score and lifetime rating requirements. "Economic freedom is the foundation of prosperity, opportunity, and innovation. By advancing pro-growth policies that empower Americans to start businesses, invest in their futures, and promote fiscal responsibility, we can build a stronger economy while ensuring taxpayers keep more of their hard-earned money. I am honored to receive this prestigious award and grateful to Club for Growth President David McIntosh for this recognition," said Representative Bob Onder. “We congratulate Rep. Onder 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 many of them claiming to be ‘moderate.’” Background Information The Club for Growth is a national network of more than 500,000 pro-growth, limited-government Americans who believe prosperity and opportunity are rooted in economic freedom. Each year, the Club for Growth Foundation publishes its Congressional Economic Scorecard, which tracks how Members of Congress vote on key economic legislation and evaluates votes related to the organization's core policy priorities, as well as legislation that would directly undermine those fiscal goals Members of Congress who earn a score of 90 percent or higher in a given calendar year and maintain a lifetime score of at least 90 percent are recognized by the Club for Growth with the "Defender of Economic Freedom Award." ### | 1 | 2026-07-03T08:00:00Z | 2026-07-03T08:01:30Z |
