Campaign Finance
Follow the money for any House member, or the whole chamber. The same money map you see on a member’s page, now scoped to a party or a state. PAC funding by industry, grassroots vs. corporate share, and outside spending, all from FEC filings. To put two members side by side, use the Compare tool.

About this data
The money map
This tool draws the same money map shown on each member’s “Money & Influence” tab, built from the same data so the two never disagree. Raised money (individual donations plus PAC contributions to the campaign) is shown separately from outside money (independent expenditures spent for or against a candidate, which the campaign does not raise or control). Scope it to the whole House, one party, one state delegation, or a single member; aggregate scopes simply sum every member in that group.
Who stands out
The two ranking panels show the members with the highest share of money from small (under $200) individual donors, and the highest share of their PAC money that comes from corporate PACs. Corporate share is of PAC dollars, not of all money raised, so it can exceed a member’s overall “from PACs” figure. Across all members with FEC data and all cycles; members raising under $250,000 are excluded so the shares are meaningful.
Data source
All figures come from the Federal Election Commission. PAC-to-candidate money combines Schedule B disbursements (direct PAC contributions) and Schedule A donations earmarked through a committee, counted once, as PAC, so “raised” is not double-counted. Individual donor profiles therefore reflect money given directly to the campaign, with the under-$200 total taken from the FEC’s authoritative unitemized figure. Independent expenditures come from Schedule E, deduplicated for amendments and covering all outside groups, not just the tracked categories.
PAC interest categories
PAC money is also grouped into industry categories (defense, pharma/insurance, fossil fuel, and so on). These are editorially assigned by YourRepRecord from each committee’s stated mission, industry, and spending. They are not official FEC classifications, and some committees could fit more than one. The “Other (non-categorized)” bar is every PAC outside the tracked categories, so the category bars always sum to the PAC total. The % Corporate share uses the FEC’s own org_tp = corporate flag, a separate classification from the interest categories.
Donor geography & employers
In-/out-of-state is computed from itemized ($200+) individual donors’ reported addresses against the member’s home state (for aggregate scopes, “home state” is each member’s own). The employer list is the employer that itemized donors report on their own FEC filing, a proxy for which industries a member’s donors come from. It is not the member’s employer and not PAC or corporate money. Employer names are self-reported and not independently verified.
Cycles, scope & the CSV
Amounts cover each member’s tenure to date in the House; pre-tenure cycles are excluded. The cycle filter drives the whole money map: totals, sources, categories, geography, outside spending, and the largest-PAC-donors list. The trend chart always spans every cycle, since it is the time axis. The CSV export carries the full per-cycle time series for the current scope, with a committee’s FEC id on every PAC row.
What this does not show
It does not capture dark money (spending by groups that do not disclose donors), contributions to super PACs not tied to a candidate, or bundling beyond what the FEC reports. Category assignments are editorial judgment.
