Read this carefully. A member of the party that does not control the chamber will usually be on the losing side, so this number mostly reflects party control — not influence, effectiveness, or attendance. It is not a score.

Securities disclosures
Our index holds no periodic transaction reports for James McGovern as of 22 July 2026. That is not the same as none having been filed: under the STOCK Act of 2012 members have 45 days to disclose a securities transaction over $1,000, and our copy of the record can lag behind theirs.
