Compromises on record

Sponsorship cap. This record cannot be labeled Qualified on the 118th–119th Congress record because this member sponsored or cosponsored H.R. 9448, H.R. 10600. The score does not change. The highest label from this rule is Compromises on record. These measures were signed by Adam Malin on 2026-10-22. This is a lesser label cap for measures that are not Tier 1. Sponsorship of a clean Tier 1 bill can still disqualify under the existing rule. A disqualifying vote on record stays that label. An existing Compromises on record, Grave pattern on record, or Too few scored votes band is unchanged. The cap applies only to a record that would otherwise be Qualified on the 118th–119th Congress record, and it is applied before the tested-record gate.
