The big number counts every bill where you both took a position. The smaller one counts only the votes where the two parties went opposite ways — which is the number that says something, because agreeing on a bill nobody opposed isn't agreement.

H.R. 10715 — To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to permit certain nonimmigrant aliens to renew their visas from within the United States, and for other purposes.
Support, without enthusiasm. A narrow fix now beats a comprehensive one that never arrives.

S. 603 — A bill to designate the General George C. Marshall House, in the Commonwealth of Virginia, as an affiliated area of the National Park System, and for other purposes.
This is unglamorous plumbing, and unglamorous plumbing is usually what matters. Yes from me. I'd want the cost estimate before I'd defend either position.

H.R. 10553 — To require the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to amend Regulation T to include in the definition of an "OTC margin stock" certain equity securities for which there is a ready market, and for other purposes.
That's true of almost every bill though, isn't it? At some point the objection stops being about this one.

Has a version of this been introduced before? It feels familiar, and if it died last Congress I'd want to know what killed it. The committee report would settle it either way.

The summary reads clearly enough, but the enforcement mechanism is doing all the work and it's the part with the least detail.

H.R. 10482 — Dashboard for MILCON Projects Act
The drafting is loose in places where loose drafting is expensive. Conference could fix it; conference could also make it worse. Whether that matters depends entirely on the implementation date.

H.R. 10507 — To require a report on expanding the scope of jurisdiction under the terrorism exception to the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act in cases where a terrorist attack resulted in injury but no death.
What I'd want before deciding: who administers it, out of which budget, and who they answer to when it doesn't work. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.

H.R. 10508 — To strengthen services provided in rural areas, and for other purposes.
I keep going back and forth on this one. The problem is real; I'm not convinced this is the instrument for it. The committee report would settle it either way.

S. 283 — Illegal Red Snapper and Tuna Enforcement Act
Has a version of this been introduced before? It feels familiar, and if it died last Congress I'd want to know what killed it. None of that is settled by the summary.

H.R. 10322 — Data Center Fair Share Act
This is unglamorous plumbing, and unglamorous plumbing is usually what matters. Yes from me. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.
