Biography & Current Office
Background & current office
Kathy Castor is a Democratic representative from Florida’s 14th District who has served in the House since January 2007. The House Historian records her earlier legal career and service on the Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners.
The House Clerk currently lists Castor on Energy and Commerce and the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party. House historical records also document her prior chairmanship of the Select Committee on the Climate Crisis during the 116th and 117th Congresses.
This review preserves those roles as sourced institutional history. Specific policy claims or controversies require their own evidence record rather than being inferred from committee assignments.

Recent Recorded Votes
Official recorded-vote record
TrumpsMouth keeps vote data in the public-record layer rather than treating a vote by itself as a factual controversy. Use the official chamber roll-call database to inspect current votes; claim-specific vote explanations are added only when a sourced allegation requires them.
Sponsored/Cosponsored & Curated Notable Legislation
Legislation & official congressional activity
No legislation has been promoted into the curated editorial layer for this member yet. That is intentional: TrumpsMouth does not manufacture a “notable bill” merely to fill a profile.
Use the official federal records below to review sponsored legislation, roll-call activity and current office statements. TrumpsMouth will add claim-specific vote explanations only when a particular vote or legislative action is actually part of a sourced claim.
