Votes with DemocratsCrosses party linesVotes with Republicans

Justin Pearson'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 10 of those votes. Gray seats are members too new to score. How these numbers work

Rank by statewide bills passed: Rank 87 of 97 in the House (tied with 10 others) · 14 of 23 Democrats (tied with 9 others)

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.

Bills that passed both chambers

None of the bills Justin Pearson sponsored passed both chambers.

Budget projects

Tennessee's appropriations act doesn't say which legislator asked for an item, so there's no budget figure for Tennessee legislators.
