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 10 of those votes.

A bill's sponsor is its prime sponsor in its own chamber; co-sponsors aren't counted. Every Tennessee bill has a companion in the other chamber with its own sponsor, and only one of the two becomes law: the sponsor of the companion that didn't is credited through the one that did.
