Shelley Mayer's seat is marked. Seats run from most liberal (left) to most conservative (right), by contested floor votes. Color shows how often each member crosses party lines toward the middle on votes that divide the parties: solid blue or red means almost never, and purple means on at least 1 in 5 of those votes. Gray seats are members too new to score. How these numbers work

A bill's sponsor is its prime sponsor, as the Legislature records it; cosponsors and multisponsors aren't counted, and a bill introduced by the Rules Committee or for the budget counts for no member. New York passes most bills by substitution: the second chamber passes the first chamber's bill in place of its own identical one, which is then counted as passed for its sponsor too, marked "through its companion".

Budget projects
New York's budget bills don't name the legislator who asked for an item, so there's no budget figure for New York legislators.
