Points Breakdown

2nd Session · 2026
🗳️ Vote Cast Floor vote cast Earned each time the member votes yea or nay on a recorded floor vote. Roll-call votes are the clearest public record of where a member stands, and showing up to cast them is the most basic duty of the job.
244 votes +488 pts
🤜 Bill Cosponsored Co-sponsored a bill The member added their name in support of a colleague's bill. Co-sponsorship is the main way members build the coalitions a bill needs to advance, without being the lead sponsor.
112 bills +112 pts
🌉 Bipartisan Bonus Bipartisan co-sponsor bonus Awarded when a co-sponsorship crosses party lines. Bipartisan support is one of the strongest predictors that a bill will actually become law, so it earns extra credit here.
23 bills +69 pts
❌ Missed Vote Missed vote The member was absent and cast no vote on a recorded question. Missed votes are tracked publicly and can signal anything from a scheduling conflict to disengagement, so this is a penalty by default.
6 missed -18 pts
📢 Bill Introduced (25+ cosponsors) Bill introduced (25+) A new bill that launched with broad backing. A large co-sponsor list out of the gate is a strong early indicator that legislation could move.
1 bills +10 pts
📋 Bill Introduced (10–24 cosponsors) Bill introduced (10-24) A new bill that attracted moderate support across the chamber. Reaching double-digit co-sponsors suggests the idea is gaining real traction among colleagues.
1 bills +6 pts
📜 Bill Introduced (solo) Bill introduced (solo) The member formally introduced a bill with no co-sponsors. Thousands of bills are introduced each Congress and most never advance, but introducing one is how every law begins.
4 bills +4 pts
➖ Present Voted present The member was on the floor but formally declined to take a side, voting present rather than yea or nay. It is a deliberate, recorded choice, sometimes used to avoid a conflict of interest, so it is neutral by default.
1 present +0 pts
