Institute for Legislative Analysis

I am honored to have received the Defender of Limited Government award.

This recognition reflects a commitment I’ve carried with me every day in Congress: to uphold the Constitution, protect individual liberty, and ensure Washington works for the American people, not the other way around.

This award reinforces what matters most to me: standing firm on principle and delivering results that keep government accountable and limited.

I am grateful for this recognition, and even more committed to continuing the fight.

I am honored to receive the Champion of Limited Government award from the Institute for Legislative Analysis.

From Florida to the halls of Congress, I’m committed to holding our government accountable and ensuring that it serves you.

We will not stop fighting to restore the constitutional principles that keep our nation free.

Thank you to for the feature! Data-driven insights into legislative behavior and ideology matter, and we’re glad to see this conversation getting broader attention. 👏

During President Donald Trump’s second term, congressional Republicans have become simultaneously less moderate and less likely to embrace limited government, according to a new study shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The Institute for Legislative Analysis (ILA) released its 2026 Congressional Vote Report on Thursday morning after analyzing over a quarter million different legislative votes and ranking all members of both the House and the Senate on a 0 to 100 ideological scale, with higher numbers signifying stronger adherence to limited government principles. Republican lawmakers were significantly less likely to score below 60% in 2025 than in 2023 and also less likely to score above 90%, the report found.
