What are peoples thoughts? My thought is, it seems Obama has accomplished more significant legislation than Hillary. Someone else might interpret it differently.

14. "It seems Obama has accomplished more significant legislation than Hillary"
You'd have to put that in your OP title to get more responses.

Thanks for putting this together.

Did I miss it somehow in your list? Hillary was a cosponsor of the flag burning amendement along with Jim Talent R-MO at one point.

15. This does not include things that they were co-sponsors in
it is just bills or amendments they personally sponsored.

24. Cosponsors don't do most of the work on the bills
It's the original sponsors who usually do the work of getting the legislation passed. Cosponsors just sign on.
