Every dollar Washington spends comes from someone who worked to earn it. Americans deserve a government that respects their money, operates transparently, and delivers results. That means rooting out waste, stopping fraud, and holding federal agencies accountable for how taxpayer dollars are used.
- Crack down on fraud and abuse. Strengthen oversight of federal programs to identify fraudulent payments, expose wrongdoing, and ensure resources reach the Americans they are intended to serve.
- Cut wasteful spending. Scrutinize federal expenditures, eliminate duplicative programs, and demand measurable results from taxpayer-funded initiatives.
- Protect Americans from financial scams. Strengthen coordination among law enforcement, financial institutions, technology companies, and federal agencies to stop criminals from stealing Americans’ savings.
- Demand transparency and accountability. Require federal agencies to explain their spending decisions, address failures, and take corrective action when taxpayer funds are mismanaged.
- Prevent improper payments. Improve verification and oversight so government programs can detect problems before money goes out the door and recover funds paid improperly.
Restoring trust in government starts with accountability. Protecting taxpayers must be a daily responsibility, and Washington must be held to the same standards of responsibility that American families follow every day.

Pennsylvania should help power America’s future. Expanding responsible domestic energy production means more opportunity for our workers, dependable power for our businesses, and greater security for our country. Federal policy should support that potential and give energy producers the certainty they need to invest.
- Unleash domestic energy production. Support Pennsylvania natural gas and a reliable mix of American energy sources to meet the needs of families and businesses.
- Cut unnecessary permitting delays. Streamline approvals for energy production, pipelines, and transmission infrastructure while maintaining clear safety and environmental standards.
- Support good-paying jobs. Encourage investment that creates opportunities in energy, manufacturing, construction, and the small businesses that serve those industries.
- Strengthen grid reliability. Expand dependable generation and modernize infrastructure so our power supply can meet growing demand.
- Strengthen American energy security. Expand the ability to supply our allies with American energy and reduce the influence of hostile regimes over global energy markets.
Pennsylvania’s energy resources should deliver lasting benefits for the people who live and work here. The priorities are clear: affordable energy, reliable power, good-paying jobs, and a stronger America.

A secure border is a basic responsibility of the federal government. America must control who enters our country, enforce its immigration laws, and stop the cartels that profit from drug smuggling and human trafficking. Supporting President Trump’s border security agenda means ensuring that enforcement has lasting support in Congress.
- Give border personnel the tools to succeed. Provide the staffing, technology, infrastructure, and resources needed to prevent unlawful crossings and protect our borders.
- Enforce immigration laws. Support the lawful removal of people here illegally, with priority on violent criminals, gang members, and individuals who threaten national security.
- Stop fentanyl and criminal trafficking networks. Strengthen inspections at ports of entry and coordination among law enforcement agencies to disrupt the organizations bringing deadly drugs into our communities.
- Protect vulnerable children. Combat human trafficking, strengthen safeguards against exploitation, and hold smugglers and traffickers accountable.
- Support law enforcement. Strengthen cooperation among federal, state, and local authorities while maintaining a fair and orderly legal immigration system.
Border security must be a lasting commitment. Congress must help keep our borders secure, uphold the rule of law, and protect the safety of American families.

Hardworking Americans deserve an economy where a paycheck covers the bills, buying a home is within reach, and small businesses have the opportunity to grow. Delivering lasting relief means keeping taxes low, cutting unnecessary regulations, controlling government spending, and making more of what we need here at home.
- Keep more money in Americans’ pockets. Support tax relief for working families, seniors, and small businesses so people can keep more of what they earn.
- Make everyday life more affordable. Advance policies that lower energy and prescription drug costs, expand housing supply, and reduce the financial pressure on households.
- Help small businesses grow. Improve access to capital and eliminate unnecessary regulations that make it harder to open a business, hire employees, and invest in our communities.
- Strengthen American manufacturing. Support domestic production and fair trade policies that give American workers, farmers, and businesses a level playing field.
- Protect taxpayer dollars. Root out waste, fraud, and abuse, and demand accountability for how Washington spends the money Americans work hard to earn.
A strong economy starts with opportunity. The goal is simple: more jobs, higher take-home pay, lower costs, and a better future for the next generation.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 27 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 · 75 contributions · 13% of ranked | $100,462 |

A further $24,500 came from donors whose answer names no employer (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 ($7,531) 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 $7,176 in contributions, which the categories below do not include.

All 1,082 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
33 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $84,663 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.
| Name | Amount |
|---|---|
| 6 payments · 13% of all spending | $270,000 |
| 37 payments · 11% of all spending | $225,645 |

| 8 payments · 2.7% of all spending | $58,500 |
The people, firms and committees paid the most, across every kind of payment. Each share is of everything the committee reported spending this cycle, not only the itemized payments above. A payee that is itself a committee links to its own profile.
