Speaker of the House · 1991–2015
John Boehner
Republican Speaker. Tax cuts, a deal to reopen the government, and a resignation under pressure from his own conference.
John Boehner is on the former-members chart, not the current Congress. The office on file is Speaker of the House, 1991–2015. The placement note is: Republican Speaker. Tax cuts, a deal to reopen the government, and a resignation under pressure from his own conference.
The dot is economics +38 and authority +16. That is right of center on economics. The other axis sits toward authority. Former members are placed from the public career, not from a 119th Congress Voteview score.
No separate “said, then did” note is on file. The career sentence above is the whole of the written placement. It names the public fact the dot is built from, and it stops there.
The nearest other former members on these two numbers are Liz Cheney (+40 / +18) and Eric Cantor (+42 / +16). Nearness is not a school of thought.
This page does not add votes that are not in the placement note. The bills themselves are in the Congressional Record for those years.
