Exact figures

Positions are coordinates on the map's main axis. Only the distance from the typical Democrat and typical Republican means anything.

From bills backed

  • Senator at 0.05
  • Democratic caucus median −0.24, from 46 senators
  • Republican caucus median 0.01, from 42 senators

Each mark is a senator. The vertical line is the typical senator in that caucus.

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. See how these summaries are written.

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.
Typical senator:
the middle senator of a group, with half on each side. "17% of the way" means 17% of the distance from the typical senator in one party to the typical senator in the other.

Legislation on this issue

These are records, not a score, and sponsoring a measure does not mean it moved. Simple and concurrent resolutions cannot become law, and a proposal enacted through a companion House bill or inside a larger bill is not counted as becoming law here.
