Momentum: 66 of 100
| Stage (Passed both chambers) | 38 / 50 |
|---|---|
| Recency (22 days before May 31, 2024) | 18 / 20 |
| Committee progress | 10 / 10 |
| Coauthors | 0 / 10 |
| Bipartisan sponsorship | 0 / 10 |
How this is calculated
- Stage reached — up to 50. 50 × (stage − 1) ÷ 8, where the stages are 1 Introduced · 2 In committee · 3 Passed committee · 4 Passed its first chamber · 5 In committee in the second chamber · 6 Passed that committee · 7 Passed both chambers · 8 Sent to the Governor · 9 Enacted / adopted.
- Recency — up to 20. 20 if the last recorded action was within 14 days of the reference date, falling in a straight line to 0 at 90 days. The reference date is the earlier of the data date (Oct. 1, 2026) and the session's last scheduled day, so a finished session is scored as it stood when it ended.
- Committee progress — up to 10. 5 for each chamber in which a committee reported the bill favourably.
- Coauthors — up to 10. 1 per coauthor (max 7), plus 3 if its authors and coauthors include members of both chambers.
- Bipartisan sponsorship — 10. 10 if the authors and coauthors include at least one Republican and one Democrat.
Rules on top: an enacted bill (signed, law without signature, or veto overridden) or an adopted resolution scores 100. A vetoed bill without an override, or one whose last committee vote failed, has its score halved.
Disclaimer. The momentum score is an automated, rough indicator built only from the public record (stage, dates, authors and committee reports). It is not a prediction, does not measure merit or support, and can be wrong when an action is mis-recorded or an author is mis-matched. Coauthors are read from the action text (“Coauthored by …”).
