Two ways of counting

These columns measure different things and are expected to differ. The compiled figure is pro-Israel money associated with this member, drawn from lobby-group disclosures, and includes bundled individual giving. The FEC column counts only direct committee-to-candidate contributions on file at the FEC — a narrower universe. Across all members the second is roughly 0.11x the first. This member is matched to an FEC candidate ID.

Measure	Associated (compiled)	Direct to campaign (FEC)

AIPAC

House votes recorded

1 recorded vote: 0 yea, 1 nay.

This vote is marked substantive — standalone measures rather than provisions bundled inside a larger bill. A vote on an appropriations package that happens to contain Israel funding is weaker evidence of a position than a standalone resolution, so the two are distinguished.

For context

Among Democratic House members in the same contribution band ($25k-100k) — 141 members — the yea rate on these votes is 54.0%. This member received $86,600.

Association is not causation. Contributions may follow a member's existing position rather than change it, and both may follow district politics. The Republican rows show almost no variation to explain, so the relationship visible among Democrats should not be read as proof that money changed any particular vote.
