{{CongLinks | congbio = | votesmart = | fec = | congress = }}

The order of the fields does not matter for results, but is useful for consistency and to see what's missing.

  • All parameters are optional, but if you don't include any of them, nothing will show up.
  • Do not use capital letters. They might disrupt the code.
