Earmarks they asked for

Congressionally directed spending enacted at their request, alone or with others: 37 earmarks, $49.3M. 1 went to an organization whose employees gave to Ruppersberger's campaigns ($1.0M).

FY 2024
$11.2M
FY 2023
$28.3M
FY 2022
$9.7M

Against chance: set beside the earmarks other members of their state's delegation asked for on their own, in the same year and account, 1 of the 25 of theirs went to their donors' employers; chance gives about 1: about what chance gives (a little more, within chance).

Where the money goes

Their trades in each (band midpoints) plus their largest year holding it. Funds that sell to outside investors file a Form D with the SEC, which names who runs them; family LLCs, trusts and private companies file nothing public. A trade made through a family LLC counts for the LLC and for what it bought.

Matched to SEC filers by name, so a match means "a filer with this name". Form D facts are from the newest one; manager figures from the SEC's monthly Form ADV file. Money is band midpoints, not dollars invested.

How their trades did

Each of Ruppersberger'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.
