Descriptive counts per Congress — sponsored/cosponsored measures, recorded votes cast, and participation (votes cast ÷ recorded, shown only where the denominator is ingested). This is not an effectiveness score, alignment, or rank. Recorded votes reflect ingested chambers (House member casts across the supported range; Senate member casts are not linked — see Coverage).

The Quiet Ledger grades legislation, not lawmakers. This page reports factual legislative activity by Congress; it does not assign the member an overall score, alignment, or rank, and never combines Congresses into a lifetime rating.
