Crossing party lines

Cross-party disagreement on key votes

How often each lawmaker voted opposite to members of the other party within Cascadia's delegation, across the key votes tracked on the board above. Every Yea or Nay is compared against each other-party colleague's position in the same chamber on the same vote. Not Voting and Present are excluded, and so are lopsided consensus votes, meaning any vote where more than 85 percent of the chamber voted the same way, since broad agreement reveals little about party lines. A lower score means more divided votes cast alongside the other party.

About this project

Last Week In Congress is a recurring feature of NPI's Cascadia Advocate, the Northwest Progressive Institute's journal of politics, culture, and society. Each edition recaps the roll call votes taken on the floor of the United States House and Senate and shows exactly how every member of the Pacific Northwest's federal delegation voted.

The Northwest Progressive Institute is a netroots powered strategy center working from Washington, Oregon, and Idaho to raise America's quality of life through insightful research and imaginative advocacy. Visit nwprogressive.org to learn more, or browse the complete Last Week In Congress archive.
