Voting analysis

Jared Huffman leads the minority on Natural Resources, and four of his five displayed filings are land bills. A wilderness, recreation and working forests act for the northwest corner of his state. A feasibility study for a ridge trail around the bay. An active transportation measure for public lands. Only a small-producer bill and a water quality act sit outside that frame, and neither sits far outside it.

241
Bills sponsored
3902
Bills cosponsored

Of the 50 most recent of those, 48 currently sit at Introduced.

Sponsored bills carry the Congressional Research Service's own subject classification. Jared Huffman's cluster into: Public Lands and Natural Resources (13), Energy (7), Environmental Protection (7), Animals (3), Transportation and Public Works (3), Education (2).

Alignment this tight between a committee post and a filing record is not the norm across these pages. Where a member's paperwork and their gavel converge completely, it usually means the district and the committee are the same subject seen twice, and a coastal northern California seat holding the ranking slot on public lands is exactly that.

Where he broke ranks

Five noes against the caucus, all on measures that passed: a children's online safety act, organised retail crime, a surveillance extension, an Iran resolution, and the consolidated appropriations act. One yes the caucus withheld, on fuel retailing, which failed. One amendment vote.
