Voting analysis
One of Roger Williams's bills legislates the contents of a booklet. It would require the Medicare handbook mailed to beneficiaries to explain how enrolling in the veterans department's patient system affects Medicare premiums. That is about as granular as federal law gets — a statute directing what a pamphlet must say — and it exists because the interaction between two benefit systems catches people out.
Of the 50 most recent of those, 49 currently sit at Introduced.
Small business, commerce
He chairs the Small Business Committee, and commerce heads his classified subjects with immigration behind it. Two of the subcommittee chairs beneath him also have pages on this site — a Texas Republican and a Georgia freshman — which makes his the parent record of a small cluster here.
The remaining filings cover bulletproof vehicles for police, a commission measure, school safety, and a review of how mergers are processed.
Sponsored bills carry the Congressional Research Service's own subject classification. Roger Williams's cluster into: Commerce (15), Immigration (10), Finance and Financial Sector (8), Education (5), Crime and Law Enforcement (3), Government Operations and Politics (3).
Where he broke ranks
Five amendment votes, two of which were agreed to and three of which failed. Beyond them, higher education access for territorial students, which he opposed and his conference passed, and a rotorcraft measure he supported that did not survive.
