摘要 | For more than three decades, “Vital Statistics on Congress,” a joint effort undertaken by Norman Ornstein of the American Enterprise Institute and Thomas Mann of the Brookings Institution, in collaboration with Michael Malbin of the Campaign Finance Institute, has been a go-to reference guide for congressional watchers for impartial data on Congress and its members. Note: Video and statistical graphics produced by The Brookings Institution. Vital Stats full data set PDF Download PDF The purpose of “Vital Statistics” has always been to collect useful data on our first branch of government — on the election and composition of its membership as well as its formal procedure, such as the use of the filibuster, informal norms, party structure, and staff. This data set also documents the increasing polarization of Congress and the demographics of those who serve in the US Senate and US House of Representatives. Over the years, we’ve received innumerable requests for updated versions of the chapters in between printings of the published book. We heard you and have now changed the way we present the “Vital Statistics” data: we’ve put the book online, making each chapter available online as a collection of spreadsheets for download at no cost. This new interactive format allows us to update and correct the data more frequently and make it accessible to anyone interested in learning about Congress. We’ve formatted the tables so that each is both printer-friendly and read-writable. We encourage you to share your feedback and how you’ve used this data set, and we plan on posting your most interesting findings. Find out how you can submit your own “Vital Stats” analyses through the Brookings Institution. |
