Voting analysis

Sarah McBride represents an entire state, which removes the delegation comparison from this page. Delaware sends one member to the House, so there is no same-state group of her own party to measure her against and nothing is shown for it.

Two bills about time off

Labour tops her short list of classified subjects, and two filings sit there directly: a holiday pay act and a flexible leave act. Paid time away from work is one of the few areas where the United States has no federal floor at all, so each attempt at one arrives as a separate bill rather than an amendment to something existing.

Sponsored bills carry the Congressional Research Service's own subject classification. Sarah McBride's cluster into: Labor and Employment (3), International Affairs (2), Science, Technology, Communications (2), Agriculture and Food (1), Finance and Financial Sector (1).

10
Bills sponsored
630
Bills cosponsored

Of all 10, 9 currently sit at Introduced.

The remainder cover modernising a tax credit for disabled access, biotechnology teaching in secondary schools, and a measure against scams. She has filed few bills so far, as one term tends to produce.

Where she broke ranks

Eight departures, running both ways. Four refusals on measures her caucus backed — a children's online safety act, a surveillance extension, an Iran resolution and the ethics records resolution. Four crossings, including a main street economic bill and a war powers resolution that failed.

That last refusal is worth a note: the ethics records measure has drawn noes from members of both parties across this site, which makes it one of the few genuinely cross-cutting splits in the data.
