864 roll calls on this member’s record are tagged Taxes. 507 of them counted toward the score above: 171 toward “Raise revenue” and 336 toward “Cut taxes”.

The other 357 did not count: 347 were roll calls whose direction on this issue could not be read confidently — mostly procedural motions — and 10 were ones 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.
