Earmarks they asked for

Congressionally directed spending enacted at their request, alone or with others: 25 earmarks, $121.7M. None went to an organization whose employees are among their donors.

FY 2023
$66.1M
FY 2022
$55.6M

Against chance: set beside the earmarks other members of their state's delegation asked for on their own, in the same year and account, 0 of the 22 of theirs went to their donors' employers; chance gives about 0: about what chance gives.
