3 priorities · 6 quoted statements
Christina is a working mom from Macomb who knows what it feels like to watch the bills pile up. Groceries, gas, healthcare premiums — everything costs more, and we are struggling to keep up.
In Congress, Christina will fight to lower costs, take on the politicians and corporations that are taking advantage of working families, and fight for good-paying Michigan jobs. She’ll work with anyone — Democrat, Republican, or Independent — to get it done.
As a prosecutor, Christina spent her career protecting children and families and putting away dangerous people like pedophiles and murderers.
In Congress, she’ll fight for safer communities, world-class schools, and the resources law enforcement needs to prevent violent crime and protect kids and seniors online.
Christina is a working mom from Macomb — not a career politician — and she believes D.C. should work for us, not corporations and special interests.
That’s why she’s the only candidate in this race refusing corporate PAC money. In Congress, she’ll take on anyone driving up costs, ban members of Congress from trading stocks, and work with anyone — regardless of party — to clean up the corruption in Washington so that they finally start to deliver for working families.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 41 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.

A further $18,827 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 ($740,186) are not itemized, so no employer or occupation is filed for them.
Outside spending $14,220,983 across this race
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.
Support and oppose are each group’s own labels, not a judgment made here.
$10,419,889 of the race total was filed about other candidates, so it would not show on Hines’ own record.
Independent expenditures (Schedule E) only. Electioneering communications and corporate or union member communications file separately; they are counted for Hinesunder “Other outside spending” in the full finance detail, but not for the rest of the field, so every other row is a floor.

Every itemized payment the committee reported this cycle, sorted by what it said each one was for. The categories are ours; the wording they are matched against is the committee’s own. Open a category to read the filed descriptions and who was paid. FEC filings through Oct 14, 2026.
All 602 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
6 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $11,256 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.
