Too few votes in common to mean much yet.

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. 10706 — To amend title XI of the Social Security Act to clarify parameters for model testing and add accountability to model expansion under the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, and for other purposes.
The drafting is loose in places where loose drafting is expensive. Conference could fix it; conference could also make it worse. That's a drafting question rather than a political one.

H.R. 10665 — To amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to require institutions of higher education to have an independent advocate for campus sexual assault prevention and response.
This is unglamorous plumbing, and unglamorous plumbing is usually what matters. Yes from me. That's a drafting question rather than a political one.

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.
Genuine question rather than a gotcha: what does success look like in five years? If we can't say, what are we actually voting on?

S. 790 — A bill to redesignate the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center in Casper, Wyoming, as the "Barbara L. Cubin National Historic Trails Interpretive Center".
I'd like to see the fiscal note before taking a position. The summary is silent on cost, which is normally the whole argument. Happy to be told I've read it wrong.

S. 2933 — A bill to redesignate a playground in the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve in the State of West Virginia as the "Hearts of Gold Playground: In Honor of West Virginia Children and Families Impacted by Childhood Cancer".
I'd like to see the fiscal note before taking a position. The summary is silent on cost, which is normally the whole argument. It'll come down to what the agency does with it.

S. 2735 — Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians Land Transfer Act of 2025
Worth reading the sponsor list before deciding — it's less partisan than the framing suggests. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.

H.R. 10484 — Covered AI Prohibition Act
Voting no on process rather than substance. This hasn't had a hearing I can find, which is a lot of reach for a bill nobody has questioned in public. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.

H.R. 8674 — Geese House Site Conveyance Act
You're right about the drafting, but that's fixable in conference. Killing it means starting over next Congress.

H.R. 9496 — End Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act
That's true of almost every bill though, isn't it? At some point the objection stops being about this one.

H.R. 9496 — End Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act
The summary reads clearly enough, but the enforcement mechanism is doing all the work and it's the part with the least detail. It'll come down to what the agency does with it.
