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. 10115 — Radiation Exposure Compensation Reauthorization Act of 2026
Honest question, not a trap: what would change your mind?

The cost estimate assumes full compliance, and full compliance never happens. That gap is where these things go wrong. The committee report would settle it either way.

H.Res. 518 — Providing for consideration of the bill (H.R. 2913) to authorize support for Ukraine, and for other purposes.
I'd add that the states already doing this haven't seen the effects the opponents predicted. That's some evidence.

H.R. 9770 — Continuing Appropriations Act, 2027
Does anyone have the CBO score on this? The summary is silent on cost and that's usually the whole argument.

Same conclusion, different reasoning. I'm less worried about scope and more about who administers it.

S.J.Res. 196 — A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Department of Education relating to "Reimagining and Improving Student Education-Federal Student Loan Program Final Regulations".
Agreed on the substance, disagree on the timing. Doing this badly now makes doing it well later harder.

S.J.Res. 181 — A joint resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against the Islamic Republic of Iran that have not been authorized by Congress.
Honest question, not a gotcha: what would change your mind on this?

Counterpoint: the reporting requirement is the guardrail. Once the numbers are public the politics change on their own.

S. 5209 — PERFORM Act
The intent is fine. The drafting is not. There's no sunset, no review, and no mechanism to stop it if it turns out to be counterproductive.

Reading the summary, this looks like it mostly codifies what agencies are already doing informally. That's worth doing — informal practice evaporates when administrations change.
