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.

Since the current Congress began on January 3, 2025, Norcross has a recorded vote on 60 laws that passed, and 1 vote on a resolution that passed a law.

24 Yes · 24 No · 12 Did not vote
Confirmed from the official record

The tally counts votes on passage. 1 vote on a resolution that passed a law is listed apart.

This record covers laws that passed. Votes on bills that did not become law are not included yet.

The record in plain language

Of the 118 laws passed since January 3, 2025, 60 came to a recorded vote on passage in the House while Norcross is a member. On 1 more, the recorded House vote is on a resolution. Norcross votes No on H.Res. 590, the resolution that passed the Rescissions Act of 2025 in the House. The rest passed the House by voice vote or without objection, which records no individual votes.

Norcross votes Yes on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the defense policy law for fiscal year 2026 and the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act.

On funding the government, Norcross votes Yes on the January 2026 funding law for science, energy, Interior and the EPA, and the September 2026 funding extension, and No on the March 2025 full-year funding law, the November 2025 law that ended the 43-day shutdown and the February 2026 funding law for a further group of agencies.

Norcross votes No on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention; the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the 2025 tax and spending law; the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar); the Secure America Act, a 2026 budget law; and the Russia and Iran sanctions law.

Congress cancelled 24 federal rules by recorded vote in the House in that time. Norcross votes to cancel 0 and against cancelling 16, and did not vote on 8.

Norcross votes the same way as most House Democrats on all 48 of these Yes and No votes.

Norcross did not vote on the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Reauthorization Act of 2025; the HALT Fentanyl Act; the Salem Maritime National Historical Park Redesignation and Boundary Study Act; the law that cancels an EPA rule that had stopped certain large sources of toxic air pollution from being moved into a less strictly regulated category; the law that cancels a bank regulator's rule that changed how proposed bank mergers are reviewed, restoring the earlier, faster process; and the law that cancels the EPA approval that let California set stricter smog-pollution limits for heavy-duty truck engines, and 6 more in the list below.

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.
