Sponsored no measures. Bills and laws
A vote against the party majority can reflect a home-state interest or a procedural step. A proposal enacted through a companion House bill or inside a larger bill is not counted as the sponsor's measure becoming law. How these are worked out.
- Contested vote:
- a roll call where the losing side got at least 10% of the votes cast.
- Party break:
- a contested vote against the majority of their own party.
- Cosponsor:
- a senator who signs on to support a measure, a bill or resolution, that another senator introduced. Bills backed means sponsored or cosponsored.
- Median:
- the middle senator of a group. Percentages like "17% of the way" are shares of the distance between the Democratic median and the Republican median.

Where they stand by issue
A position shows which senators someone votes or legislates alongside, not whether they are for or against a policy. Issues come from each bill's topic, so an issue can include amendments on other topics. Left and right on the strips have no meaning of their own. Bills often have backers from both parties, so a position from bills is read against the medians for bills, not against the position from votes. How these are worked out.
Overall

Committees and leadership
The source no longer lists this senator as serving. It lists current assignments only, so past assignments are not shown.
As published by the congress-legislators project on . The source lists current assignments only and may not reflect past ones.
Earmarks
An earmark, officially Congressionally Directed Spending, is an amount in an appropriations law set aside for a named project, at a senator's request. These items come from the tables printed with the enacted fiscal 2026 laws. The tables list funded projects only and do not state the amount each senator requested, so the amounts here are what the law provided for the project, not money a senator received.
The fiscal 2026 tables list no project requested by this senator. Some senators decline to request earmarks, so an empty list is a record and not a gap. The tables list funded projects only, so they do not show whether any request went unfunded.
Fiscal 2027 is not shown. The Senate committee has not reported its fiscal 2027 bills, and its table of requests could not be read automatically.
