Voting analysis
Barry Moore is vice chair of the agriculture subcommittee on forestry and horticulture, and agriculture leads his classified filings. Neither fact explains his voting record, which is one of the more oppositional on the Republican side.
Amendments in, bills out
The record splits cleanly. Six amendment votes on a defence authorisation where he pressed for changes the conference would not accept, one of which was adopted and the rest defeated. Then a set of completed bills he voted against — children's online safety, housing, a marine conservation reauthorisation — each of which his party passed without him.
Pushing amendments and then refusing the result is a coherent sequence rather than two unrelated habits.
