Individuals: itemized gifts to principal campaign committee. Totals aggregate across all recipient committees and are gross (not net of refunds). A total exceeding $6,600 for an individual likely spans multiple committees (e.g., joint fundraising) or includes amendments counted twice. Verify via the FEC source link. Party committees: coordinated expenditures (NRSC, DSCC). Direct PAC contributions over $50,000 do not occur due to FEC $5,000-per-election limit.

Independent expenditures are reported to the FEC by the spending committee, not the member's campaign. A committee is marked single-candidate when 80% or more of its cycle independent-expenditure dollars concern one candidate. Donors are named only at $50,000 or more to a super PAC or joint fundraising committee. For leadership PACs, individuals are named at $50,000 or more; organizations and PACs at $5,000 or more. The 2026 cycle is still in progress.

Amounts are each donor's net total of itemized contributions across the cycle (primary, general, and runoff elections combined), after subtracting refunds, not single gifts. Receipts marked as received in error, returned, or refunded are excluded, and refunds to the donor are subtracted. Joint-fundraising shares are included: the member committee's itemized share of joint-fundraising proceeds (FEC transaction type 15J) counts toward the donor's total, while the joint fundraising committee's own transfers are not counted separately. Donors are named only when their net cycle total is $1,000 or more; smaller donors appear only in the aggregate count and total below each table. Where a returned receipt of $10,000 or more affects a total, it is noted below the table. Lists cover itemized individual gifts to the member's principal campaign committee only. Employer and occupation are self-reported. The 2026 cycle is still in progress.

Donor figures are net of refunds from the FEC individual-contribution bulk files (2024 and 2026 cycles, each itemization taken at its latest amended version before any exclusion), rebuilt and reconciled row by row against the previous release on 2026-10-02; see methodology for the method and the reconciliation counts.

Money and finances

Estimated net worth

at least $752,114 (Annual Report for CY 2025 (filed 05/11/2026)). Earliest on record (2014): -$714,881 to $3,634,990. disclosure

Estimates are summed from ranges reported on financial disclosures, so they are approximate. Ranges are wide by design.

Stock trades (last 12 months)

39 trades, estimated volume $81,039 to $690,000. As of 2026-09-26. Quiver

STOCK Act disclosures cover the member, spouse, and dependent children, and report amounts as ranges, so volumes are estimates. Null records mean data was not retrieved, never zero trades.
