Political lean: words vs. votes (independent AI assessment)
Two separate AI assessments, each shown only one side and never the other — one reads just what they're promising, the other reads just their actual votes — so any gap between the two is an independent signal, not a model grading its own homework.

Promise Public Safety
“Over a four-year period from 2021 to 2024, law enforcement agencies reported over 69,000 incidents of gang activity, and more than half of these incidents were violent crimes. This is why our bipartisan bill, introduced alongside my fellow Appropriator, Congresswoman Ashley Hinson is necessary. The FBI and our local law enforcement agencies need accurate, and comprehensive federal reporting on gang membership data and trends, so we can take the appropriate steps to support law enforcement and strengthen public safety in Ohio, Iowa, and from coast to coast. While it is encouraging to see the FBI Crime Data Explorer report that violent crime is down 8% from August 2024, there is bipartisan and bicameral consensus in Congress that we must do more to ensure law enforcement agencies have access to the appropriate resources, tools, and support to combat gang violence. Understanding gang activity and trends is vital to combating violent crime, and making our communities safer, which is why our legislation is essential in this fight.”
