1 Quorum Quarterly: Measuring Legislative Activity and Social Media Trends in Q1 of 2018

2 Methodology: The data and analysis featured in this report was made possible through Quorum s comprehensive database of legislative information and powerful analytics. The first section, Legislative Activity, analyzes congressional data from 1998 to 2018 to identify how the activity in the first 15 months of the 115th Congress compares to that of the past ten Congresses. The second section, Social Media Trends, analyzes the official Twitter accounts of members of Congress to identify trending hashtags used, key influencers mentioned by legislators, and most active members on the major social platforms in Q1 of 2018.
