The United States is 3.7 million homes short of meeting basic housing needs. In the Senate, Mark’s plan is designed to expand housing supply and bring down costs by encouraging rehabilitation of existing structures, speeding up permitting, and making it easier for first-time homebuyers to obtain their first mortgage. He has also worked to drive down the cost of child care by addressing the child care labor crisis.

During his first term in the Senate, Mark helped write the Affordable Care Act, and has worked ever since to strengthen it. He believes that the only way to lower premiums and keep the health care system sustainable is to ensure every American has access to an affordable basic standard of care. Without access to health care coverage, people still get sick. They end up in emergency rooms, which is the most expensive type of care, raising costs for everyone.

Washington is largely unprepared for the coming AI jobs crisis and we urgently need forward-looking policies to prepare our economy for this new era. Mark believes the AI companies and big corporations that stand to massively profit from this disruption must do their part, including preparing workers for the economy of the future and paying their fair share of the enormous energy demands AI will place on our grid.

Mark wrote the groundbreaking CHIPS and Science Act, which is bringing advanced manufacturing back to America instead of relying on foreign countries for critical technology.

He championed legislation to address toxic exposure, improve mental health care, reduce wait times at VA clinics and make sure that veterans can receive the care they deserve closer to home. Mark has also led efforts to repair substandard military housing so that servicemembers and their families have the stability and dignity they deserve.

No state plays a larger role in building and sustaining America’s military might than Virginia. Mark knows 21st-century security won’t just be about who has the most planes, guns, or missiles. It’s also about who leads in AI, unmanned systems, advanced computing, quantum, cybersecurity, and other technologies that will define the next generation of warfare, and he’s worked to ensure that the U.S. stays ahead.

Mark has championed policies to protect critical technologies, boost federal R&D, and protect U.S. intellectual property from theft. He wrote the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act to rebuild domestic semiconductor manufacturing so the U.S. is never again dependent on China for the core technology that powers our economy and military.

Mark was the first in his family to graduate from college, and his first two businesses failed – but he got a third shot at success, building a business that created thousands of jobs. He believes every American deserves that same fair shot to try, fail, and succeed.

Our democratic norms and institutions have never before faced the threats that we face today. Mark still believes that politics is the best way to make a difference and improve people’s lives, but only if we have a strong democracy and voters are able to make their voices heard. Mark helped negotiate and pass a revised Electoral Count Act to make clear that the Vice President does not have the power to overturn the will of the people when Congress is certifying the presidential election.

Republicans bent the Senate rules to put a conservative super majority on the Supreme Court – with the clear intent to overturn Roe v. Wade, which they did. 2026 is a critical year for abortion access in Virginia because voters will have an opportunity to constitutionally protect abortion access in the Commonwealth. Mark will work to ensure this amendment passes as well as other critical state constitutional amendments to protect marriage equality and the restoration of voting rights.

Mark has seen firsthand the devastation that gun violence has brought to our communities and is working to ensure Virginians can go to school, the grocery store, and their place of worship free from the fear of gun violence. He believes that Americans have the right to own guns, but that we need commonsense solutions like banning assault weapons and background checks to keep our communities safe.

By the state each donor wrote on the filing, across 54 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 $209,882 came from donors whose answer names no employer (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 ($3,275,373) 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.

All 2,318 itemized payments filed this cycle. Spending below the itemization threshold is not filed line by line.
124 payments were reported as a lump sum, such as a card or payroll bill, with the detail filed underneath as memo entries. Those entries, $1,462,820 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.
