How Many Amendments did Senators File?

Curious about how many amendments the Senators filed?  It turns out quite a few.  First of all, as most of you know there are only 40 Senators, while there are 160 Representatives. This year the house filed about a thousand floor amendments -- just shy of a thousand at first, then a few more in the end -- which works out to be a little more than six amendments per representative.

On the other hand, the Senators filed 647 amendments -- before the additional 47 that were posted on the Senate website late this afternoon -- which works out to be a little over 16 amendments per Senator.

Still, some were greedier than others.  The table below sets forth the number of amendments per Senator, including those filed jointly by combinations of Senators.

As you can see, John Hart leads the pack with 56 followed closely by Tisei at 51.  McGee, Creem and Tarr are in the thirties, with Spilka and Tolman following close behind.
