Voting analysis
Debbie Wasserman Schultz is ranking member of the appropriations subcommittee funding military construction and the veterans department. The Texas Republican who chairs that panel also has a page on this site, and the annual bill they both work on appears among his filings and none of hers — which is how the roles divide, not a gap in her record.
A pool safety reauthorisation
Among her filings is a reauthorisation of a pool and spa safety act that carries a child's name. Bills named for individuals usually mark a death that produced a statute, and reauthorising one is the quiet maintenance work that keeps such laws from lapsing. Crime and law enforcement lead her classified subjects, with health behind.
Sponsored bills carry the Congressional Research Service's own subject classification. Debbie Wasserman Schultz's cluster into: Crime and Law Enforcement (9), Health (8), International Affairs (5), Commerce (4), Finance and Financial Sector (3), Armed Forces and National Security (2).
The other filings
An act whose title is built on an acronym, a housing bill framed against hate, a review requirement for temporary protected status determinations, and a hereditary cancer measure.
Of the 50 most recent of those, 49 currently sit at Introduced.
Where she broke ranks
Four crossings against two refusals, plus an amendment. She backed a main street economic bill, fuel retailing, a religious heritage restoration for fallen servicemembers, and a measure on American property held abroad. She declined daylight saving and a bill on organised retail crime. The crossings outnumber the refusals, which for a member of her seniority describes someone who still votes with the majority when the majority is going somewhere she wants to go.
