People's Champion Scorecard — Every Member of Congress Ranked

Which members of Congress fight hardest for everyday Americans? The People's Champion Scorecard ranks all 543 legislators in the 119th Congress by analyzing every bill they have sponsored. Legislators who focus on healthcare, education, housing, Social Security, and consumer protection earn higher Champion scores. Those who prioritize defense spending, weapons systems, and military operations rank higher on the Hawk Index.

The top-ranked senator is Graham, Darline (Republican, South Carolina) with a Champion Index of 50.0. The most military-focused senator is Cotton, Tom (Republican, Arkansas) with a Hawk Index of 69.0.

All data comes from the Congress.gov API, maintained by the Library of Congress. Scores are updated weekly. This is not editorial opinion — it is a quantitative analysis of bill sponsorship patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the People's Champion Scorecard?

The People's Champion Scorecard ranks every member of Congress by how much of their legislative work focuses on domestic programs versus military spending. Higher scores mean a greater focus on everyday Americans.

How often are scores updated?

Scores are recomputed weekly from live Congress.gov data. The current rankings reflect bill sponsorship through September 2026.

Does a low Champion score mean a legislator is bad?

No. The scorecard measures legislative focus, not quality. A legislator focused on defense may serve on the Armed Services Committee and appropriately prioritize military legislation. The scorecard helps voters understand their representative's priorities.
