As your Congressman, I have witnessed firsthand the broken state of affairs in Washington, D.C. Our nation’s capital has become a cesspool of partisan gridlock, bureaucratic overreach, and a general disconnect from the needs and values of the American people.
Throughout my career, I have remained steadfast in my conservative principles and unwavering commitment to limited government, individual liberty, and fiscal responsibility. I understand that the power should reside with the people and their elected representatives, not in the hands of an ever-expanding federal bureaucracy.
I firmly believe that government should be accountable, transparent, and focused on its core responsibilities. It is my mission to cut through the red tape, dismantle unnecessary regulations, and streamline government agencies to ensure they operate efficiently and effectively. We must restore the proper balance between federal and state powers, allowing for greater local control and decision-making.
It is time to put America first, restore accountability, and build a stronger, more prosperous future for all Americans.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 51 states and territories. Donors who have given $200 or less this cycle are not itemized, so they cannot be placed on a map. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total.
| Employer as filed | Amount |
|---|---|
| Written instead of an employer · 45,981 contributions · 61% of ranked | $882,014 |
| Written instead of an employer · 1,193 contributions · 4.1% of ranked | $59,778 |

A further $154,999 came from donors whose answer names no employer (N/A, None, blank), so it is not ranked. Ranked from the largest 200 of 201 employer spellings filed; each share is of the money in those. Itemized gifts over $200, grouped by the words donors filed: not an industry classification, and a gift from an employee is not a gift from the employer. The FEC’s grouping also counts joint-fundraising memo lines, so these rows can add up to more than the itemized total. Gifts of $200 or less ($1,555,218) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
Money groups spent on their own, not through a campaign. Each ad is filed against the candidate it names, so money attacking an opponent shows on the opponent’s row. Open a candidate to see who spent it.
The campaign also refunded $275,886 in contributions, which the categories below do not include.
Total itemized disbursements $5,315,266

All 1,946 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
19 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $427,015 in all, are counted under the payee and purpose they name rather than under the processor that was paid. The total is the same either way.

| 19 payments · 29% of all spending | $1,972,126 |
| 19 payments · 7% of all spending | $473,497 |
