Overview
Carol Miller has represented West Virginia's 3rd Congressional District since 2019, serving as part of the Republican caucus in the House of Representatives. Her voting record demonstrates consistent alignment with conservative principles across multiple policy areas. On healthcare legislation, Representative Miller has voted 'yea' on approximately 41% of bills in this category, suggesting she has supported some healthcare measures while opposing others. Her budget-related votes show a similar pattern, with 44% 'yea' votes, indicating she takes a selective approach to fiscal legislation. Procedurally, Miller has consistently voted against Democratic-led motions to order the previous question and against resolutions brought forward by the majority party during Democratic control of the House. This reflects standard partisan dynamics in the chamber rather than any unusual ideological positioning.
