Organizations

Companies, unions and groups across the records: what their PACs gave members, what they spent lobbying, the issues and bills they lobbied on, and what their lobbyists report giving.

Outside spending on House races

A PAC may give a candidate only $5,000 an election. The larger money is spent beside the campaigns, not given to them: super PACs and the parties' committees buy advertising for one candidate or against another, without limit. $2.5B of it on House races from 2022 to 2026, by 1,440 committees; these spent the most. Every House race is counted, a challenger's who lost as well as a member's.

Who funds them

A super PAC may take any amount from a person, a company or a union. These are the largest donors to the committees above and the rest that spent on House races, 2022 to 2026: every itemized gift from one donor added up, to however many of the committees. The committees spend on Senate and presidential races too, so a donor's money here is not all House money. What one committee passes to another is not counted.

What organizations gave and spent lobbying

Each bar is what the organization's PAC gave members since 2021, split by the party of the members it went to.

An organization is one name across the records: the lobbying client or firm (LDA), the sponsor its PAC names (FEC), and the registrant on its lobbyists' reports (LD-203), once suffixes like "Inc." are set aside. Different spellings of the same organization can still show up apart. An organization has a page here when its PAC or its lobbyists gave to members, or it spent or took in $1M or more lobbying since 2021; smaller ones still count in every total, under their names.
