Kathy Castor

Overview

Kathy Castor has served as a Democratic Representative from Florida with a voting record that spans multiple policy areas, with particular activity in healthcare legislation. Her voting patterns show strong party loyalty, consistently opposing Republican procedural motions while supporting Democratic legislative priorities. Across her recorded votes, Castor has demonstrated active engagement with healthcare policy, where she has cast over 100 votes with a relatively balanced 50% approval rate, suggesting she evaluates individual healthcare measures rather than voting uniformly. Her agriculture and budget votes show higher approval rates, at 61% and 64% respectively, indicating support for many proposals in these areas. Castor's procedural votes reveal consistent opposition to Republican 'motion to recommit' attempts, which are typically used by the minority party to amend or delay legislation. This pattern reflects standard partisan alignment on procedural matters common among members of both parties.
