[OC] Visualization of bipartisan bill cosponsorship in the 119th Congress

[Repost to bring title into compliance for the mods]

Was curious whether the bipartisanship story in Congress was as bleak as it seems, so I pulled every bill cosponsorship from the Congress.gov API and built this.

Turns out there's more going on than you'd expect. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) cosponsors 76% of his bills with Democrats — more than with his own party. There are 18 members total who cross the aisle more often than they stay on their side. And there are 24 who are basically at zero.

You can explore by state, by policy topic, or look up any individual member. The "Follow the Bill" section ranks every policy area by how bipartisan it actually is.
