Earmarks they asked for

Congressionally directed spending enacted at their request, alone or with others: 15 earmarks, $36.5M. None went to an organization whose employees are among their donors.

FY 2023
$28.5M
FY 2022
$8.0M

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 15 of theirs went to their donors' employers; chance gives about 0: about what chance gives.

How their trades did

Each of Long's trades in a company's stock, priced on its trade date and again 30 and 90 days later, less what the S&P 500 did over the same days; a sale counts the other way. 3 of their trades could be priced (ETFs, funds and since-delisted stocks can't). Too few to score against chance (it takes 10). Every member, compared.
