119th Congress so far

Who gets bills passed

Each member’s legislative effectiveness: how far the bills they sponsored got, from introduction through committee and floor to law, weighted so substantive bills count more than commemorative ones. The average member scores 1.00. “Expected” is the average for members in the same position, since majority-party chairs naturally pass more. Method
