Track record
Assembled from Congress.gov · FEC · official disclosures — each fact links its own source
- Roll-call participation →
voted in 17 recorded roll calls
Missing a vote is not inherently negative — an absence can be excused, reflect leadership or committee duty, or a recorded pairing.
- Bills sponsored →
plus 253 cosponsored
A count of bills introduced as the primary sponsor; most legislation never advances, regardless of who sponsors it.
- Sponsored bills enacted →
of 40 bills sponsored
Whether a bill becomes law depends on the whole Congress, not the sponsor alone; substantive provisions often pass folded into other vehicles.
- Party-unity voting
votes with the party majority · on 8 party-line votes
Party-unity is how often a member votes with their own party's majority on party-line votes — it reflects agenda alignment, not loyalty, independence, or virtue.
- Cross-party voting
votes with the other party's majority on those same votes
The share of the same party-line votes cast with the OTHER party's majority — a descriptive rate, not a measure of principle.
- Documented positions →
no positions documented yet
Documented, sourced positions we have on record — the absence of a documented position is not the absence of a view.
- Committee assignments →
committees and subcommittees
Committee seats are assignments made by party leadership — a measure of role and jurisdiction, not an achievement or a conflict in itself.
Assembled from CivicGate's ingested public records for Clay Higgins. A fact shown as “—” means we don't yet hold that data — not that the value is zero.
