880% of the PA-1 median
Median household income, PA-1 $113,911
Brian K. Fitzpatrick, reported assets (low end) $1,001,002
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.

Changed from Voted Yea — George Floyd Justice in Policing Act to Voted Nay — George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.
Same measure, new number. H.R. 7120 and H.R. 1280 keep the qualified-immunity limit, the chokehold ban, and the misconduct registry, and the House-passed text moves the appropriation window from fiscal years 2021–2023 to 2022–2024.
