Voting analysis

Katie Britt chairs the homeland security appropriations subcommittee. Her defection record is short and divides neatly: amendments she supported and lost, and bills she opposed and lost.

Both halves of the same disagreement

She backed amendments from two Republican colleagues on a budget resolution and a tax bill, both rejected. She then voted against a bill at passage, against an amendment to it, and against another bill — measures her conference carried. The pattern suggests a member arguing for a different fiscal package and declining to accept the one produced.
