- Reported assets
- At least $115,002 (range $115,002–$300,000)
- 2025 House financial disclosure, lowest value of each band, summed. Official report ↗
210% of the OK-2 median
Median household income, OK-2 $55,652
Josh Brecheen, reported assets (low end) $115,002
The income bar shows the median as a share of the larger of the two figures, with a 3px minimum width so it stays visible. The assets bar has its own scale, from $1 at the left to $20 million at the right, and follows the low end of the range. It fills completely when the top of the range is over $20 million. Its color, and the color of the percentage above, runs from green on the left to red on the right.
Reported assets are what the disclosure form lists, in value bands, before debts and not counting a primary home. The median is one year's household income. They measure different things.
Context only. The income figure never moves the pond.

From their campaign site, in their own words. Not the pond.
- The federal government has evolved beyond anything the founders of our nation intended or even imagined. joshbrecheen.com
- We must reduce Washington’s influence in our daily lives. joshbrecheen.com
- The most effective way to do that is to pass term limits on Members of Congress. joshbrecheen.com
- I honored my term limits pledge when I served in the State Senate and will do so again. joshbrecheen.com
- The remedy for inflation is to stop government’s runaway spending. joshbrecheen.com
- I have requested $50.7 billion in cuts, introduced and cosponsored bills that would cut $310.8 billion, and have voted for amendments that would cut $35.7 billion from our current budget. joshbrecheen.com

Funding — not the pond
FEC money track · 2024–2026 cycle · never part of the pond
Did they take money from PACs that funded both Democrats and Republicans? Money never moves the pond.
Campaign — they cashed it
$17,009 TAKE (dual-party PAC)
Took at least $1,000 from PACs that fund both parties.
Context. Not the pond. Taking the check is not a flip. Flipping after the check, and staying quiet, is.
Own it — Dual-party PAC

Largest dual-party PACs on this file.
- AMERICAN ISRAEL PUBLIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE$10,009
- NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS$6,000
- HEALTH CARE SERVICE CORPORATION$1,000
Traditional PAC contributions to candidate committees only. A dual-party PAC gave at least $1,000 to both parties. AIPAC in this table is committee C00797670. Legal, disclosed, hard-capped. Super PACs and dark money are not in this number. Taking this money is common. The amount is the story. HippoCricket doesn't put this in the pond.
