How often their bills’ sections fit

No bill this member sponsored has been checked yet.

Too few checked bills to compare (0). Checked bills will appear below.

Sections may have been added by committees or on the floor, so these numbers describe bill text, not the member. Every check is approved by a person (how we decide).

Money political action committees gave to this member’s FEC candidate committees, grouped by the industry of the giving committee, for the current and previous FEC cycles. These contributions are legal and public. They sit beside the voting record; they don’t show why a member voted any way. How industries are assigned.
