Voting record, 119th Congress
How these are counted
Attendance is the share of roll calls held while the member was in office on which they voted Yea, Nay or Present. A party-line vote is a roll call on which a majority of Republicans voted against a majority of Democrats. Voting with the Democratic majority is the share of the member’s cast votes on those roll calls that matched that majority.

Votes by issue, 119th Congress
This is not a left–right score. A vote against the party can come from either side of it; the list below shows who else voted the same way.
| Issue | Votes | With the Democratic majority | Against both parties | With the Republican majority | Rank among Democrats |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Armed Forces and National Security | 36 | 100.0% | 0 | 0 | Tied for 1st (33) |
| Economics and Public Finance | 24 | 100.0% | 0 | 0 | Tied for 1st (43) |
| Other issues (5)Fewer than 10 votes each: Agriculture and Food, Education, Environmental Protection, Finance and Financial Sector, Health | 20 | 100.0% | 0 | 0 | — |
Rank: 1st = voted with the Democratic majority most often on that issue, among House Democrats who cast at least 10 votes on it.
How these are counted
Each roll call takes the policy area the Library of Congress gave the bill it is about; a vote on an amendment counts under its bill. 468 of the House’s 676 roll calls this Congress have an issue. Left out as procedural (208): votes on House rules and the previous question, motions to recommit or adjourn, quorum calls and the Speaker election. “With the Democratic majority” counts every issue vote on which most Democrats voted the same way, Yea or Nay. “Against both parties” = most Democrats and most Republicans voted one way and this member the other. “With the Republican majority” = a party-line vote (most of each party on opposite sides) on which this member sided with the Republicans. Independents count with the party they caucus with.
