Matt Van Epps is a Republican U.S. representative from Tennessee, in Congress since 2025, who voted with most Republicans on 99% of the 119th Congress’s yes/no votes.

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.
