Funded by you, not by concentrated money.
Why this grade
Every score is built from facts you can check: who funds them and how they vote. Here's what drove it.
26.2% of their money comes from small donors; 4.8% comes from PACs.
$0 in PAC money flows through their leadership PAC (ALSOPAC STATE & LOCAL).
Of the 5 money votes they've cast, they sided with the people 5 times (100%).

Outside money
$3.5MSuper PACs and outside groups can spend unlimited money to get a senator elected, cash the senator doesn't control and whose donors are often hidden. This is what Citizens United unleashed.
$3.5M in outside money was spent boosting them, and $27M spent attacking them.
Biggest boosters
- BLACK PROGRESSIVE ACTION COALITION$991K
- NATIONAL NURSES UNITED FOR PATIENT PROTECTION$942K
- BLACKPAC$804K
- SAVE AMERICA FUND$147K
- ROLLING SEA ACTION FUND$128K

We grade money behavior, not party. Both parties run the full range. We show the averages in the open: the typical Democrat scores 72, the typical Republican 47. The grade is mostly money (who funds them) with a light weight on how they vote. Source: FEC receipts, leadership-PAC filings, and Senate roll calls. Nothing here alleges a crime. The point is that it's all legal.
