This note is shown for completeness. It is not scored. A sponsorship in the 117th Congress or earlier stays a note. Prior-Congress resolutions are notes and do not cap. Operative class-A bills in the current and prior Congress can cap the label. The label window is the current and prior Congress, about four years.


## Past floor votes

Past floor votes on life and on children count at a disclosed prudential weight. A vote in the prior Congress counts at 0.5. A vote two Congresses back counts at 0.25. Nothing older is scored. The weight counts toward the lane minimum: the votes add their weights, not one full vote each. An absence, or a present, on a bill that defends life or children still counts, at that same reduced weight. An absence on a bill that expands abortion does not. Scripture gives no half-life for sin. Recent conduct is better evidence of how a member uses the office now. The numbers 0.5 and 0.25, and the two-Congress limit, are chosen numbers, open to revision. Decay changes the score only. Whether a cap applies does not decay.

- Yea on S.Con.Res. 5 (117th Congress, senate roll 23). disclosed prudential weight 0.25 (two Congresses back). Reserve fund. Not scored. A non-binding reserve fund binds nothing. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1171/vote_117_1_00023.htm
- Nay on H.R. 3755 (117th Congress, senate roll 65). disclosed prudential weight 0.25 (two Congresses back). Cloture on an abortion-expansion bill. A yea caps the label and does not disqualify. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1172/vote_117_2_00065.htm
- Nay on S. 4132 (117th Congress, senate roll 170). disclosed prudential weight 0.25 (two Congresses back). Cloture on an abortion-expansion bill. A yea caps the label and does not disqualify. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1172/vote_117_2_00170.htm
- Yea on S.Con.Res. 14 (117th Congress, senate roll 336). disclosed prudential weight 0.25 (two Congresses back). Reserve fund. Not scored. Declining a non-binding reserve fund is not an act against the commandment. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1171/vote_117_1_00336.htm
- Yea on H.R. 8404 (117th Congress, senate roll 362). disclosed prudential weight 0.25 (two Congresses back). Tier 2 under family harm, not children. Signed by Adam Malin on 2026-10-22. A yea counts. Some Christians backed the religious-liberty amendment, and the practical effect largely codified Obergefell. Neither changes what the law declares marriage to be. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1172/vote_117_2_00362.htm
- Yea on S.J.Res. 10 (118th Congress, senate roll 90). disclosed prudential weight 0.5 (prior Congress). Yea on the motion to proceed to S.J.Res. 10 is protective. The resolution would disapprove the VA abortion rule. 118th Congress decay 0.5. The motion weight is the published cloture weight. Signed by Adam Malin on 2026-10-22. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1181/vote_118_1_00090.htm
- Nay on S. 4554 (118th Congress, senate roll 211). disclosed prudential weight 0.5 (prior Congress). Sense of Congress. Scored at the 0.5 factor, not a full harm exposure of 100. A yea caps the label at Compromises on record and does not disqualify. https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1182/vote_118_2_00211.htm
