Voting analysis
Mike Quigley's committee post carries one of the more evocative titles in Congress: ranking member for defence intelligence and overhead architecture. Overhead architecture means satellites — the constellation of instruments the government keeps above everyone's head. It is a minority slot on a panel whose work is largely invisible, which makes the rest of this page the only readable part of his job.
Five yeses and one no
His departures are lopsided toward joining Republicans rather than refusing Democrats. He backed a main street economic bill, a war powers resolution, cashless bail reporting, fuel retailing, and a religious heritage restoration for fallen servicemembers. The single refusal went to a daylight saving measure.
