This Member of State Legislature may have voted on other bills by the process known as "voice vote", but these votes are not recorded. As this is new beta functionality that we have automated, a direct link to the roll call vote PDF for verification purposes has been provided.

Voting records are temporarily not working.
We are working to resolve this problem ASAP.
