Recent Recorded Votes

Official recorded-vote record

FactFlag 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: FactFlag 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. FactFlag will add claim-specific vote explanations only when a particular vote or legislative action is actually part of a sourced claim.
