Former member of Congress · last served 112th Congress

Ann Marie Buerkle
Ann Buerkle was a Republican U.S. representative from New York, first elected to Congress in 2011, who voted with most Republicans on 97% of the 112th Congress’s yes/no votes and sponsored 2 bills that became law (112th–112th Congress).
How we count: “Broke with party” is a yes/no roll call where the member voted against most of their own party on that vote (party as recorded; even splits not counted). “Pork: own share” splits each earmark shared by several members evenly among them.

Read this first. These are counts of records Congress.gov lists. Many bills never get a CBO estimate or a report, so a zero is not a mark against a member. We never show this as a score.
