* This template is only appropriate for legislators who served any time during or after 1991.
* This template should '''not''' be [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|substituted]].
===Cut and paste===

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