United States
Congress as it votes, presidents as they governed.
The 119th Congress, seated members only, snapshot October 2026. Each sitting member, each president, and each former member has a written page. Congress pages use the roll-call score and do not invent a list of bills. President and former-member pages quote the governing-record note. The 2026 tab is a party program, not a voting record. Senate 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, 2 independents. House 218 Republicans, 214 Democrats, 1 independent, with 2 vacancies. Color is the party label. Left to right is the roll-call score, not the label. In this Congress those do not cross: every Democrat’s score is still left of every Republican’s. The split is the independents. Sanders and King vote with the Democrats. Kevin Kiley left the Republicans in 2026, and his votes still sit on the Republican side. Nothing was removed to force the parties apart.

Color is the party. Left to right is the roll-call score. Click a bubble to select that member. If several sit on the same spot, click again to move through them. No Democrat in this Congress lands on the Republican side of that line, and no Republican lands on the Democratic side. The names underneath are the members nearest the other party. The site does not name them for you.
