Voting analysis

Three of Angela Alsobrooks's five displayed bills are about teeth. A Medicare dental benefit, improved dental and oral coverage for adults under Medicaid, and access to medically necessary dental care for children — a degree of single-subject focus almost no other first-term member on this site shows.

99
Bills sponsored
486
Bills cosponsored

Of the 8 most recent of those, 8 currently sit at Introduced.

Dental coverage sits in an awkward gap in American health policy: excluded from the original Medicare design and optional under Medicaid. A member filing three separate bills at it is working a specific seam rather than legislating broadly.

Sponsored bills carry the Congressional Research Service's own subject classification. Angela Alsobrooks's cluster into: Education (1), Finance and Financial Sector (1), Foreign Trade and International Finance (1), Health (1).

A short record, split in two

Her Senate service began with this Congress, so the comparable-vote base is well below what longer-serving members supply. Within it, four departures back a single bill at passage, at cloture twice and on an amendment folded in. Two more refuse a different measure at both cloture and passage. Two joint resolutions she supported complete the list.
