Christian Voice is an American conservative political advocacy group, known as part of the Christian right within U.S. politics. In 1980, Christian Voice claimed 107,000 members including 37,000 pastors from 45 denominations.[1] Christian Voice was headquartered at The Heritage Foundation in the 1970s and 1980s and is currently located in Alexandria, Virginia.[1]
Christian Voice was among a group of four prominent Christian Right groups formed in 1978 and 1979.[2] Christian Voice, Moral Majority, the Religious Roundtable, and the National Christian Action Coalition all enjoyed considerable popularity during Ronald Reagan's Presidency.[2]
Christian Voice is best known as the originator and developer of the Moral Report Cards[2] the "Congressional Report Card" and the "Candidates Scorecard" that were issued mainly between the years 1980 and 1984.[3] It helped organize grassroots action through use of its "Church Networking Guide".
