Committee assignments · not the pond
No committee assignments to show. Not a member of Congress, and Open States lists no current state legislative seat for them.
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 — didn’t take the both-sides check
$0 TAKE (dual-party PAC)
Under $1,000 from PACs that fund both parties this cycle. Super PACs are not in this number. Money never moves the pond.
Context. Not the pond. Taking the check is not a flip. Flipping after the check, and staying quiet, is.
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. Download the PAC table.
