...and don't have past lists archived online.

They do have their Congressional Ratings and Awards from 2001 to 2007. Joe resigned during the 2001 session, so he has a few "not in office" entries (which includes the pledge for this term):

1 - Taxpayer Protection Pledge: Not in office
2 - Taxpayer Protection Pledge: Not in office
3 - Economic Stimulus: Not in office
4 - Election Reform: Not in office
5 - Fast-Track.: Not in office
6 - Patients' Rights: Voted with us
7 - Medical Savings Accounts: Voted with us
8 - Alaskan Oil: Voted with us
9 - Fuel Economy Standards: Voted against us
10 - Social Security Report: Did not vote
11 - China Trade: Voted against us
12 - Faith-Based Initiatives: Voted with us
13 - School Vouchers: Voted with us
14 - Tax Cuts: Voted with us
15 - Fiscal 2002 Budget: Voted with us
16 - Tax Limitation Amendment: Voted with us
17 - Tax Limitation Amendment: Voted with us
18 - Death Tax Relief: Voted with us
19 - Marriage Tax Reduction: Voted with us
20 - Ergonomics Rule: Voted with us

Overall score: 80%
