Voting record

Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.

Yes

“While we'd support a bit of a more moderate approach to deregulation, the constant failure for it to pass makes us see these as necessary to restore economic competitiveness. We are not letting perfect be the enemy of good.”

Democrats (D)
Voted June 5, 2020
Yes

“This is something we can get behind, after careful consideration, the Democrats have decided to vote yes - however this yes comes from floor gauging and the more moderate part of the party supports this, any further extreme bill would not be supported.”
