Also On The Record
Reform bills that passed without opposition. These are not scored — they do not distinguish one legislator from another — but they are part of the record.
Bills Sponsored
GPS-tracked reform bills this legislator put their name on. Most post-conviction bills die in committee without a recorded vote, so sponsorship is often the only public evidence of where a legislator actually stood.
| Bill | Session | Role | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| HB1201 | 2023-2024 | Co-sponsor | ENACTED Act 490 (167-0/51-0/169-0) |
