RepublicanVA
Not a left/right axis — both parties split on this issue.
34 roll calls on this member’s record are tagged Trade. 18 of them counted toward the score above: 11 toward “Free trade” and 7 toward “Protectionist”.
The other 16 did not count: 15 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.
