Former member of Congress · last served 115th Congress
Claire McCaskill
Claire McCaskill was a Democratic U.S. senator from Missouri, first elected to Congress in 2007, who voted with most Democrats on 85% of the 112th Congress’s yes/no votes and sponsored 3 bills that became law (113th–115th 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.

Results run through the 2024 elections; nothing from 2026 is shown until it is certified. A margin is a fact about one election, never a score of how well a member represents anyone, and PORKER does not rank members by it.
How has Missouri done while Sen. McCaskill served?
2007 to 2018 in Missouri: typical household income was about the same after inflation, the share of people below the poverty line was about the same, and the share of workers looking for a job was down 2.1 points.
Each mini chart has its own scale, fitted to its lines (it does not start at zero), so compare the numbers, not the heights. Oxblood = state, grey = U.S.
While they served, not because of them. This shows what happened in Missouri during McCaskill’s time representing it (2007 to 2019). It does not say what the member did or caused. It is not a score, and PORKER never ranks members on it.
Missouri’s borders do not change, so every year is comparable. The Census Bureau has no 2020 yearly estimate.

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.
