Not a left/right axis — both parties split on this issue.

114 roll calls on this member’s record are tagged Trade. 77 of them counted toward the score above: 55 toward “Free trade” and 22 toward “Protectionist”.

The other 37 did not count: 36 were roll calls whose direction on this issue could not be read confidently — mostly procedural motions — and 1 was one they did not cast a yea or nay on. They are listed below anyway, marked as not scored, because a filtered list of votes is not a voting record.
