Record in office
Hockett does not hold a seat in Congress now, so there is no current voting record, cosponsorships or committee service to show here.
That absence is not a position for or against anything.
What the campaign says, on chelseyhockettforcongress.comCandidates and financing from the FEC, public domain. Nothing here is a forecast, a grade, or a ranking of candidates.
