Voting record by President
All the votes on this site from their time in office, added up under the President in office on the day of each vote. One President's figures are never combined with another's, and Trump's two terms are separate. A new President can take office partway through a Congress, so these can differ slightly from a Congress's own figures.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Donald J. Trump (2025–present) | 119th | 100% (301 of 301) | 99% (815 of 821) | 2% (17 of 910) |
| Joseph R. Biden Jr. (2021–2025) | 119th, 118th, 117th | 21% (122 of 586) | 94% (1,181 of 1,254) | 4% (64 of 1,643) |
