Entering Votes - Finding Sponsors & Cosponsors
Vermont
Example: S 115
From the bill status page:
A list of sponsors is provided at the top of the page in the "General Status" selection, next to the headline "Sponsor(s)" (black arrow). They do not distinguish between sponsors and cosponsors. They also have a name listed next to the headline "Drafter." While this may sound like an additional sponsor to the bill, the drafter is not an actual member of the legislature but a member of the legislative staff who helps the sponsors draft the bill.
Therefore, the PVS website will have only sponsors listed for this state. In this case, the sponsors are Sens. Shumlin, Campbell, and Ayer.
