No recorded roll-call votes in PORKER’s records. Roll-call records start in 2011.

How counted: Bills where this member is the lead (first-listed) sponsor in the 102nd Congress, read from the stored Congress.gov bill records

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.
