Overview
Steven Horsford represents Nevada in the U.S. House as a Democrat with a progressive voting record. His legislative activity during the period covered shows engagement across multiple policy areas, with particular focus on healthcare-related legislation where he cast 49 votes. His voting patterns show consistent opposition to Republican-led procedural measures, as evidenced by his 'Nay' votes on ordering previous questions and agreeing to resolutions proposed by the majority. He has supported Democratic motions to recommit with instructions, which are typically used by the minority party to propose amendments or changes to legislation. Horsford's record indicates support for defense-related measures (100% yea on 2 votes) and education initiatives (100% yea on 1 vote). His healthcare voting shows a more mixed pattern at 49% yea, suggesting he evaluates healthcare legislation on a case-by-case basis rather than voting uniformly in one direction.
