<P> In contrast to a sponsor , a `` cosponsor '' is a senator or representative who adds his or her name as a supporter to the sponsor 's bill . An `` initial cosponsor '' or `` original cosponsor '' is a senator or representative who was listed as a cosponsor at the time of a bill 's introduction , rather than added as a cosponsor later on . A cosponsor added later is known as an `` additional cosponsor '' . Some bills have hundreds of cosponsors . </P>
