Ayanna Pressley
Placed from the roll-call score. Bioguide P000617.
Ayanna Pressley is the Democrat representative for the House from MA, district 7 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 -0.375, drawn as economics -37. That is left of center on economics. The second dimension is -0.927, drawn as authority -93. The other axis sits toward liberty. 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 119 of 433 from the left. The first-dimension score is close to the Democrat median in this chamber (-0.39). The nearest other House scores are Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, -0.333), Jesús G. "Chuy" García (Democrat, -0.439), Summer L. Lee (Democrat, -0.450). Those names are neighbors on the scale, not a slate.
A short public-record note says: Massachusetts Democrat. Squad member. The score is the placement. The sentence only names what the record is already known for.
