Congress Watch - PAC Money

CongressWatch lets you see exactly how much money every member of Congress receives from Political Action Committees (PACs), lobbying organizations, and corporate interests. All data comes directly from official U.S. government sources including the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and Senate Lobbying Disclosure Act (LDA) filings.

Search for any senator or representative by name, state, or district. Instantly see their total PAC funding, top donors, lobbying connections, and how their money compares to their peers. Our database covers all 538 members of Congress with over 425,000 funding records and 10,000 PACs.

Key Features:

• PAC Funding Breakdown: See exactly how much each politician receives from Political Action Committees, with every dollar traced from PAC to politician.

• Lobbying Connections: Discover which lobbying organizations are connected to each PAC and how lobbying money flows to your representatives.

• Compare Politicians: Select up to four politicians and compare their PAC funding side by side. See shared donors and who gets the most money.

• Interactive Map: Tap any state to view its full congressional delegation, total PAC funding by state, and a breakdown by district.

• PAC Watchlist: Follow specific PACs and politicians to keep tabs on the funding that matters to you.

• AI-Enriched Data: PAC names are often cryptic. We use AI to provide plain-English descriptions, industry tags, cause classifications, and ideological leanings for every PAC.

• Discover Feed: Browse trending PACs, top-funded politicians, biggest lobbying spenders, and cause-based breakdowns updated with the latest data.
