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 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.

H.R. 10655 — To direct the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to carry out a study and clinical trials on the effects of cannabis on certain health outcomes of veterans with chronic pain and post-traumatic stress disorder, and for other purposes.
Worth reading the sponsor list before deciding — it's less partisan than the framing suggests. The same objection applied to the last version and went unanswered.

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.
The cost estimate assumes full compliance, and full compliance never happens. That gap is where these things go wrong. It'll come down to what the agency does with it.

H.R. 9500 — Tax Relief for Fraud Victims Act
2 sections is worth knowing before anyone argues about the title. Whatever this is, it isn't small.

S. 759 — Modernizing Access to Our Public Oceans Act
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? I'd want the cost estimate before I'd defend either position.

S. 1051 — Historic Greenwood District—Black Wall Street National Monument Establishment Act
The cost estimate assumes full compliance, and full compliance never happens. That gap is where these things go wrong. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.

H.R. 10259 — DHS Community Consultation Act of 2026
Against, and not because the goal is wrong. It stacks a new process on top of two that already don't talk to each other. The floor version may not be this version, which is the usual problem.

H.R. 10224 — To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 6 Pennsylvania Avenue in Matamoras, Pennsylvania, as the "PFC Edward Kuhn Memorial Post Office".
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 committee report would settle it either way.

H.J.Res. 1 — Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to require that the Supreme Court of the United States be composed of nine justices.
The drafting is loose in places where loose drafting is expensive. Conference could fix it; conference could also make it worse. Happy to be told I've read it wrong.

H.R. 9436 — Northeast Lobsterman Protection Act of 2026
That's true of almost every bill though, isn't it? At some point the objection stops being about this one.
