Voting analysis
Among the bills W. Steube voted against, while his own conference passed them, is a measure on improving travel for American families. Its sponsor is a Pennsylvania Republican who chairs a workforce subcommittee and whose page is also on this site. Departures like that are the ordinary texture of a large majority: the conference is not one thing, and a bill can clear the floor with a fifth of its own side against it.
The rest of the noes
He also voted down a housing act, a marine conservation reauthorisation and an agriculture and food administration spending bill — all carried by his conference. Alongside those sit a run of amendment votes, six of them attached to one measure, where he was an aye against a conference no.
