What these lines mean

These lines come from this official’s entry in the Congressional Directory, which Congress publishes. Each member’s office supplies or approves its entry. We save our own copy and sort each part of the entry by fixed rules. No AI is used.

Previous profession lists the work the entry names outside public office, in the Directory’s own words. Public office here means an elected or appointed position, staff work for an elected official or a legislature, and party or campaign work.

Lifelong politician means: Congress’s biography lists no occupation outside public office. It also means the entry lists no military service. A person on our side confirms these words before they appear.

Years in public office counts elected and appointed positions only. Staff work and party work are left out. Each year counts once.

  1. Upon Reaching 100 Cosponsors, Nadler, Smith, and Himes Send Letter to Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Urging a Markup of West Bank Violence Prevention Act

    “The lawmakers explained that the legislation would enshrine Executive Order 14115 of 2024 into law, which sought to prevent acts of violence in the West Bank and to punish those who commit such acts, regardless of their nationality. President Trump repealed EO 14115 on the first day of his term, January 20, 2025.”

    “In April, President Trump signed Executive Order 14267 that required agency heads to submit a list of rules and laws that may create anticompetitive barriers, along with recommendations as to whether each rule calls for rescission or modification, and a justification for any proposed action or lack of action.”

Read from the lists Congress printed for 4 laws. An item requested by several members appears under each of them, so sums across members count such an item more than once. A list the Congressional Record printed on two days is counted once, from the later printing. A requester is tied to a member only when exactly one member serving in that chamber on that day has the printed name.
