1 row here has the same law, recipient, purpose and amount as another row. The Congressional Record may print one item more than once. The count and the total include each row.

Read from the lists Congress printed for 4 laws. An item requested by several members appears under each of them, so sums across members count such an item more than once. A requester is tied to a member only when exactly one member serving in that chamber on that day has the printed name.

Online ads

From a secondary source

These are records from public ad libraries, for advertisers tied to this member. We show an ad only after we save our own copy of it.

We have not saved our own copy of these 4 ads yet, so this page shows none of them. Cause: Google’s data file carries no words, picture or video of the ad.

Read from Google Ads Transparency Center, its data file of October 6, 2026. Meta Ad Library: Not started. An ad counts when the library last shows it on or after January 3, 2025.
