Brian Babin
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide B001291.
Brian Babin is the Republican representative for the House from TX, district 36 in the 119th Congress. The chart uses the October 2026 snapshot. The position is Voteview’s DW-NOMINATE score of the roll calls. Color is the party label. The place is the votes.
The first dimension is 0.709, drawn as economics +71. That is right of center on economics. The second dimension is 0.134, drawn as authority +13. The other axis sits near the middle. Voteview’s second dimension is not a pure social axis. The chart uses the public file anyway, rather than inventing a different number.
Inside the House, this first-dimension score ranks 407 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is right of the Republican median in this chamber (0.53). The nearest other House scores are Pat Fallon (Republican, 0.712), Gary J. Palmer (Republican, 0.670), Ron Estes (Republican, 0.647). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
The member’s official site (https://babin.house.gov), under “Defense and National Security,” says: “Our adversaries are many; peace through strength must be our goal. I am fighting in Congress to make certain every dollar spent…” Those are the member’s words. They are not the same thing as the roll-call score.
One left-to-right score cannot say how Brian Babin would vote on a single bill. The identity and the vote file can be checked at congress.gov through bioguide B001291.
